Here is the difference between B. Com and B. Com (Hons).

B . C om
B.Com programmes can be understood as an overview of all the subjects in the field of course. The subjects taught are same as B.Com (Hons.). However, students pursuing B.Com will not be able to do a specialization in a specific subject.
B. Com (Hons)
Although most of the subjects taught are same, the major difference is that you can specialize in a specific subject or field through this programme. Students can pick a subject (such as Accounting or Economics) in the final year for the specialized studies.
2) Market Value

B. Com

B. Com (Hons)
B.Com (Hons.) being a specialization course, offers better opportunities and good packages than B.Com. It is valued more by experts in the industry.
