Hello Satyajit,

Thank you for taking the help from us, regarding your question deciding between MBA finance and M Com is a difficult task but deciding between the two depends on which career direction you want to take.

MBA finance - It is management level program which offers specialization in accounting and finance, students are taught about various theories and practical application of accounting and financial techniques. MBA graduate in finance can  easily find in the banking sector, sharebroker firm, insurance companies, financial companies and corporate sector under various profiles such as 

  • Accounting Manager
  • Investment Banker
  • Cash Management
  • Investment consultant
  • Credit Manager
  • Chief Financial officer

Some of the good institutes for studying MBA are IIMs, ISB, ICFAI, XLRI.

M.Com - It helps in developing in-depth knowledge of the subjects like accounting, finance, and computers with an option to do specialization. It is mostly done by students interested in further higher studies and research. Employment wise M.Com students can look for a job in Auditing firms, Stockbroker firms, Banking, and finance. In addition, Government employers give preference to M.Com degree holder.

Best colleges to study M.Com are IGNOU, Hindustan College, Calcutta University, SNJB Ashram college.

Comparing two MBA is more diverse degree than M.com.MBA is very costly compared to M.Com.

So, If you want to work in corporate sector go for MBA, and if you want to study further do Ph.D., or research go for M.Com
