Prahladrai Dalmia Lions College of Commerce and Economics (Dalmia College)

The Lions Club of Malad-Borivali, an international social organisation realized the necessity of establishing a Commerce College in the western suburb of Mumbai-Malad in 1972 to cater to the needs of the society. The vision envisaged by the stalwarts of the Club was finally converted into reality and the foundation stone of the college was laid in April, 1972, with a handsome donation from the Dalmia family of Prahladrai Dalmia Charity Trust. Within a record period of 100 days the college building was completed. The college was inaugurated by Mr.T.K.Tope, the then Vice Chancellor of Bombay University. The Institution that started with 450 students has today become one of the premier institutes in the western suburbs. The College endeavours for academic excellence and promotion of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities that promote resilience, creativity and leadership qualities among the students. The College lays great emphasis on inculcating in its students the importance of ethics, hard work and commitment to excellence. The College endeavours to groom its students as icons of tomorrow, potentially contributing to Commerce trade, industry and management. The College inculcates character building qualities like discipline and punctuality in the students. It provides a platform for students to organize various sports and cultural events to participate in various intercollegiate events and to achieve excellence in extra-curricular activities. The College has an exceedingly committed staff. The Principal Dr. N. N. Pandey acts as a source of inspiration for the staff to maintain high morale while performing their duties based on the parameters of excellence. We are proud to announce that the College is progressing and has added one more professional course - BSc-IT to the existing courses – BMS, BBI, BAF and BFM.
