Brihan Maharashtra College of Commerce, Commerce college in Shivajinagar, Pune, India.
Brihan Maharashtra College of Commerce is a commerce college in the Shivajinagar area of Pune, India. The complex includes several buildings with traditional facades and teaching rooms arranged around green courtyards.
The college was founded in 1943 and received its recognition from Pune University ten years later. The city administration later granted the building heritage protection status of category II.
The name derives from the Maharashtra state and reflects the college's regional connection to the local community. Today, students gather in the courtyards between lectures and use the open spaces for group discussions and project work.
The college sits centrally in Shivajinagar and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors can usually enter the outdoor areas and courtyards without prior registration, but should respect ongoing class hours.
The college is managed by the Deccan Education Society, an organization with a long tradition in the region. Despite modern extensions, the complex has preserved its original construction in many places and thus combines historical elements with contemporary educational facilities.
