The B.Com Pass Course provides students with a holistic understanding of commerce and business management. As part of this course, students will encounter several cross-cutting issues that are essential for contemporary business environments. These issues are integral to the study of commerce as they reflect the evolving dynamics of the global economy, society, and business operations. Addressing these cross-cutting issues enhances students' analytical abilities and prepares them for real-world challenges. Below are the key cross-cutting issues in the B.Com Pass Course:
As businesses grow, there is increasing pressure to adopt socially responsible and ethical practices. CSR initiatives are critical in ensuring that businesses contribute positively to society and the environment while balancing profitability. Students will examine the ethical implications of business decisions, the role of businesses in sustainable development, and how corporate governance influences ethical behavior.
The growing emphasis on sustainability within business practices is another important issue that students will explore. Topics such as waste management, energy efficiency, environmental regulations, and the role of businesses in mitigating climate change are crucial for future business leaders.
The rise of digital technologies, including automation, artificial intelligence (AI), big data analytics, and blockchain, is transforming business operations globally. The B.Com Pass Course will address the impact of these technologies on accounting, finance, marketing, and management practices.
In an increasingly globalized economy, businesses are operating across national borders, dealing with multiple currencies, international laws, and diverse cultures.

Entrepreneurship is a driving force for economic growth and innovation. The B.Com Pass Course will highlight the entrepreneurial mindset, the challenges of starting and managing new businesses, and the role of innovation in sustaining business success.
