About College
Sri Aurobindo College of Commerce and Management (SACCM) was set up in the year 2004 as one of the foremost centers of specialized learning in the industrial town of Ludhiana. SACCM bears the name of Sri Aurobindo, a modern seer and vedic scholar, and as such the institution’s traditions are heavily borrowed from his philosophy on integral education. Accordingly, the college has crafted an integral process of education, whereby the thrust is not placed on creating a highly informed individual crammed with information rather an individual consummate in character, personality and values.
The College was set up by a trust named ‘Sri Aurobindo Socio Economic and Management Research Institute’. The Managing Trustee of this trust is Padma Bhushan Awardee Mr. S P Oswal, who is also Chairman of one the leading textile conglomerates in India, The Vardhman Group. SACCM is an exclusive commerce and management college which aims to contribute to the movement of nurturing the youth as leaders of tomorrow and for strengthening the country’s economic and industrial progress. The College is affiliated with Panjab University, Chandigarh and offers co-educational undergraduate and post-graduate programmes like B.Com, B.Com (Hons.) Accounting and Finance , B.Com (Hons.) Management Studies, BBA, BCA, and M.Com.
