B.Com Accountancy costs INR 2,652 per year and offers a low-cost route into a nationally ranked commerce programme. At INR 3.20 Lakhs for four years, B.Sc Hons (International Finance) is the college's highest-priced course and is intended for students planning careers in international finance.

HLCC Admission Process

Selection at HLCC is based on academic merit. The B.Com courses use GCAS counselling, the B.Sc courses accept direct college applications and M.Com applicants may be considered through GCAS or direct merit selection.

B.Com (Accountancy) and B.Com Hons (Banking and Finance)

No entrance examination is needed for either B.Com programme. Applicants are selected using their Class 12 aggregate marks.

1. Complete Gujarat HSC or an equivalent Class 12 examination in the Commerce stream. General-category applicants need at least 45% for B.Com Accountancy and 50% for B.Com Hons (Banking and Finance).
2. Register on the GCAS portal and enter the details from the HSC marksheet.
3. Wait for the merit list, which is prepared from the HSC aggregate score.
4. Complete seat allotment under the applicable General, EWS, SC, ST, SEBC or other reserved category.

B.Sc (Fintech) and B.Sc Hons (International Finance)

Applications for these 4-year courses are made directly to HLCC. Students must have passed 10+2 in Commerce or Science with a PCM or PCB combination. The courses serve students interested in finance and technology or employment connected with global financial markets.

M.Com (Accountancy)

M.Com selection depends on undergraduate marks and may be processed through GCAS or a direct college application. Applicants must hold a B.Com or equivalent commerce degree. The course offers 160 seats and supports students preparing for CA, CMA or academic work in commerce.

In recent admission cycles, the General-category HSC cutoff for B.Com Accountancy has usually remained between 75% and 88%. The course has a comparatively accessible cutoff among prominent Ahmedabad commerce colleges because it admits 600 students.

HLCC Placements

The HLCC placement cell connects graduating B.Com, B.Sc and M.Com students with campus recruiters. Many students in the 600-seat B.Com Accountancy batch choose CA, CS or CMA certification during or after college instead of entering a job directly through campus placement.

According to NIRF 2024 data, graduates of three-year UG courses received a median package of INR 3.50 LPA, while the median for two-year PG graduates was INR 3.80 LPA. TCS, Reliance Industries, TATA Group companies and Airtel have taken part in HLCC recruitment drives.

B.Sc Hons (International Finance) graduates may seek global finance roles or continue with qualifications such as CFA and MBA abroad. Ahmedabad's expanding financial services and fintech sector, including the GIFT City ecosystem, gives students access to nearby internship and recruitment opportunities.

HLCC Rankings

Annual national surveys place HLCC among the recognised government-aided commerce colleges in western India.

The college holds a NAAC B++ Grade. It does not appear in the published NIRF ranking list for colleges.

HLCC Scholarships

Students may apply for Gujarat government support, central schemes and college merit awards. For eligible category students, this assistance can cover nearly all the already low fee of the aided B.Com course.

Gujarat schemes provide further help to students classified under SEBC, meaning Socially and Educationally Backward Classes. Members of minority communities can also seek scholarships offered through state welfare departments.

HLCC Campus and Infrastructure

HLCC is based in Navrangpura, a major education area beside the Gujarat University campus. Its facilities include lecture halls, computer laboratories, an auditorium, sports grounds and a library holding commerce and finance resources.

The college does not provide a residential hostel. Students generally find private accommodation in Navrangpura, Satellite or other nearby parts of Ahmedabad. City buses and BRTS, the Bus Rapid Transit System, connect the campus with the rest of the city.

GIFT City, short for Gujarat International Finance Tec-City, is India's only operational smart city and international financial services centre. Its proximity is especially useful for B.Sc (Fintech) and B.Sc Hons (International Finance) students seeking industry exposure or internships with global finance companies.

HLCC vs St. Xavier’s College Ahmedabad vs Narsee Monjee College

Students considering commerce education in western India commonly assess HLCC alongside St. Xavier's College Ahmedabad and Narsee Monjee College of Commerce and Economics in Mumbai. St. Xavier's combines commerce with liberal arts and science, while Narsee Monjee is a highly ranked private commerce college.

HLCC stands out for its low fees and concentrated range of commerce courses, making it suitable for students who want focused commerce study in Ahmedabad. St. Xavier's provides a wider academic setting and holds a higher NAAC grade. Narsee Monjee reports stronger corporate placement results, but its fees are much higher and studying there requires a move to Mumbai for students based elsewhere.
