Hi Kapil, there are few differences between the two courses.

Specialization

  • B. Com

B.Com programmes are basically an overview of all the subjects in the field of course. The subjects taught are practically similar to that of B.Com (Hons.). However, students pursuing B.Com cannot have a specialization in a particular subject.

  • B. Com (Hons )

Although most of the subjects taught are identical, the major difference is that you can specialize in a particular subject or field through this programme. Students can pick one subject in the final year for specialization.
Market Value

B. Com
B.Com programme does not have as much value as the counterpart in the business industry unless the students pursue a Post Graduation course after this program, such as MBA or M.Com.
B. Com (Hons)
B.Com (Hons.) being a specialization course, is much more relevant to the industry and offers better opportunities and good packages than B.Com.

Jobs and Salary

B. Com
Although there are several job options after pursuing B.Com, salary packages are not as attractive as those offered to B.Com (Hons.) graduates. Freshers can expect salary packages of around  Rs.14,000-20,000 per month.
B. Com (Hons)
Salary packages after pursuing B.Com (Hons.) are quite good as the programme has good demand in the industry. Graduates can expect an entry-level package of Rs.25,000 to 45,000 per month. Salaries may vary depending on the college/university from where you have studied.

All the best!
