The short answer
The M.Com is awarded by Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, which states its UGC recognition on its accreditation page and is NAAC A accredited. Taken by distance, the programme also needs entitlement from the UGC's Distance Education Bureau for the session you join.
Where both hold, the UGC's September 2022 public notice settles the question of mode: degrees earned by open and distance learning from recognised institutions are to be treated as equivalent to the same degrees earned in a classroom.
An M.Com is a postgraduate commerce degree — the base for the UGC-NET in Commerce and for a commerce PhD.
The records to check for your session
| Record | Where to check | What it settles |
|---|---|---|
| UGC recognition | Subharti's accreditation page | That the university may award degrees |
| DEB entitlement | UGC-DEB portal | That the M.Com may run by distance for your session |
| NAAC grade | NAAC A | Institution-wide quality — not a programme approval |

Where a Subharti M.Com counts
- The UGC-NET in Commerce, once your marks meet the minimum
- PhD admission in commerce
- Commerce teaching posts that ask for a postgraduate degree
In every case, the notification or prospectus you apply under has the final word. Read its eligibility clause rather than the job title.
Where to read the fine print
The UGC-NET's minimum marks apply to your M.Com result. Check the current notification before planning on it.
Does AICTE approval come into it?
For a university's own degree taken by distance, recognition is settled by the university's UGC status and its Distance Education Bureau entitlement for the programme and session — the records in the table above. Those are the documents to ask for when you verify this degree.
What NAAC A tells you, and what it doesn't
NAAC grades the institution as a whole. An A tells you Subharti University was assessed and graded well; it is not an approval of any single programme, and it does not replace the DEB check for your session.

The UGC's September 2022 public notice says degrees earned by open and distance learning from recognised institutions are to be treated as equivalent to those earned in conventional mode.
What makes the Subharti M.Com a recognised degree?
The university's UGC recognition, set out on its accreditation page, plus DEB entitlement for the programme in the session you join. Subharti University is also NAAC A accredited.
How do I check DEB approval for the Subharti M.Com?
On the UGC-DEB portal, find Swami Vivekanand Subharti University's approved programmes for the session you are joining and confirm the M.Com is listed. Save a copy for your records.

It meets the master's requirement where the admitting university accepts degrees from recognised institutions, which the UGC's 2022 notice covers for distance mode. The university's own entrance and marks criteria still apply.
