DEAR ASPIRANT,

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

B. Com
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 programme is not valued as much in the business industry unless the students pursue a PG course after this programmes, such as MBA or M.Com.
B. Com ( Hon s)
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.


3) 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 up to 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

Hii Anant
The basic difference is that BCom(Honours) is a kind of specialization in subjects like accountancy and economics but BCom is just a overview of these subjects.Honours also require mathematics as one of the subjects in 12th.

Hope the details were helpful

Thank You
