Hey Kiran!

Both courses introduce you and teach you in detail the subjects that make up the commerce stream. Tthe eligibility criteria for admission to both courses remains the same for most colleges/ universities: HSC or equivalent, with Math and English as compulsory subjects.

B.Com(h):

B.Com (H) is an undergraduate degree designed to inculcate business acumen in students.You can also pursue courses like Chartered Accountancy along with your B.Com (honors.)A student has the option to specialize in a specific subject like Accounting, etc.The cut-off for various universities/colleges is relatively higher.For eg. B.Com (H) cut off for 2017 admissions for Shaheed Bhagat Singh college was 96%.

B.com(p):

Similar to B.Com (H), the difference is that a student can specialize in a certain subject in B.Com (H), which is not possible in B.Com (P).  In the latter, a student is given an overview of all the subjects taught in the honors course.A student cannot specialize in a specific subject. The cut-off for various universities/colleges is relatively lower.

For more queries, feel free to ask!

Best of luck!
