It's best for Bengal, those who know Bengali can go for this college.
Placements: I don't know much about placements, but the college is good. The placement I guess you get from this college is around 1 to 1.5 LPA. Our class has 90 students, and the whole B.Com (Hons) department has about 500 students, so if you're lucky, you may get placed.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, but I don't know much about the hostel. The college provides Wi-Fi, but it doesn't work well as many students use it, around 200-300 students on average, so it's not very useful. The canteen is average, but the library and computer labs are good.
Faculty: The college organizes events and activities, including sports, games, and tournaments. It has a small campus where you can play cricket, football, badminton, and basketball. The college also has union rooms, and it is known for its anti-ragging policies.

My College Summary of Heramba Chandra College
Placements: 1000 students are placed in the B.Com honors course. The highest package offered by our college was 300,000. One of the top companies is Mahindra and Company. There are many students who got these excellent jobs in very well-known companies. Heramba Chandra College in Kolkata offers a variety of roles to its graduates through campus placements. Prominent recruiters include TCS, Bajaj Allianz, HDFC Finance, and ICICI Bank.
Infrastructure: The facilities given by our college are really helpful as they provide us with free Wi-Fi, clean classrooms, and a library filled with useful books. Canteen food is also very tasty, and the hygiene of the college has been maintained. Also, there are common rooms for girls, and a sports room is available for students.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, highly qualified, and quite knowledgeable. Their teaching skills are very good. They explain things to us even thrice if we have any queries. This course really helps make students industry-ready as the ED (Entrepreneurship Development) subject helped us to learn more about the industries running in the world. The standard of these exams is quite a bit better than that of other colleges. It goes hand-in-hand with the best colleges.
Other: I personally chose this course because I like accounts, and I want to pursue my career in accounting. The best thing about this course is that it will help me to upgrade my lifestyle. I don't think there is anything that needs to be improved about our course. The seniors are very helpful, and events are done in a very standard way. Our college is taking part in competitions with big colleges.

Best commerce college in Kolkata .
Placements: Around 5% of B.Com students get placement from our college. The highest package offered was 8 LPA, the lowest package was 1.8 LPA, but the average package is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies are PricewaterhouseCoopers, Grant Thornton, Deloitte, Tata, etc. Only about 3%–5% of students from B.Com get internships from our college at Ernst & Young, KPMG, Accenture, and Wipro.
Infrastructure: Our college has 4 to 5 Wi-Fi connections, and they are available all the time. The classrooms are big enough for 200 students at a time. The classrooms are spacious and airy. Our college has 2 libraries, but the problem is they only have old syllabus books. Our college has no hostel facility. Our campus has a cheap canteen for students, but the canteen provides average food.
Faculty: As our college is affiliated with Calcutta University, we have great and efficient teachers and professors. All the teachers are highly qualified and have great teaching skills. This course curriculum is relevant for those who want to pursue CA, CMA, CS, or M.Com in the future. After passing this course, students can cope with real-life workplace scenarios. The semester exams are really difficult at Calcutta University. The pass percentage varies around 60%.
Other: I have chosen this course because I will pursue CMA in the future. This course provides in-depth knowledge and skills in the commerce field. Things to be improved in this course are that the pass percentage should be increased and the course duration should be reduced to 3 years.

Insights of Heramba Chandra College.
Placements: Around 80% of students were placed in this course, with starting salaries ranging from INR 20,000 to 4,50,000 Indian rupees. In my college, the average salary for this course is INR 30,000 rupees. There are fewer internship and placement opportunities available. Top roles achieved from this course are chartered accountant or cost accountant.
Infrastructure: This college has smart boards in the classrooms, which makes learning more interactive and engaging. The library is very helpful, providing all the necessary books and notes at a very low price. The classrooms are clean and well-ventilated, and the canteen serves decent food at reasonable prices. There is a hospital within 200 meters of the college, and the college also offers opportunities for extracurricular activities and sports.
Faculty: The teachers at Heramba Chandra College are very helpful and qualified. However, some of them can be rude and unhelpful. Classes are also irregular sometimes. This course is designed to prepare students for the corporate world. The exams are not very difficult, but the questions can be tricky.
Other: I chose this course because it is considered the core of any commerce student. As we are the first batch in this CCF format, many new things have been added that we don't feel are of any exceptional betterment. The college often arranges events and fests. Scholarships are available if students can maintain 60% marks per year.

Faculty: The teachers are quite helpful and well-qualified. They are very cooperative during exams, providing proper notes and suggestions. During our project work in the sixth semester, teachers were very supportive. They helped us understand the topic and offered relevant ideas about the project, always being available whenever we needed assistance.
Other: There are multiple career growth options in commerce, which is why I chose this course. It provides extensive information and knowledge about the finance and insurance sectors, and also offers opportunities to engage in practical projects and enhance my skills.
