Key takeaways
- MCom topics must be relevant to commerce, business, or finance and aligned with your specialisation.
- Choose a focused topic with accessible data—Amity rejects irrelevant or unoriginal topics at later stages.
- Project title capped at 12 words; may be finalised only after writing.
Choosing the right Amity MCom project topic means selecting an area relevant to commerce or business, aligned with your MCom specialisation, focused enough for a 15,000–30,000 word postgraduate study, and supported by adequate scholarly and industry data. Amity distinguishes between your topic—the field you investigate—and your title, which must not exceed 12 words and may only be finalised after writing.
Amity's rules for MCom topic selection
- Relevant to commerce, accounting, finance, taxation, banking, or business
- Related to subjects in your core MCom program and specialisation
- Clearly focused for in-depth postgraduate study
- Original and relevant—Amity rejects topics lacking originality at later stages
- Feasible within timeline, budget, and data access constraints
How to match your topic to your MCom specialisation
- Accounting & finance: financial performance analysis, ratio trends, working capital, investment appraisal, corporate governance
- Taxation: GST compliance, tax planning behaviour, indirect tax impact on SMEs
- Banking & insurance: customer satisfaction, digital banking adoption, NPA analysis, insurance penetration
- Economics & commerce: consumer behaviour, inflation impact, e-commerce growth, MSME performance, international trade
Sample MCom project topic ideas

- Impact of GST on small and medium enterprises in urban India

- Digital payment adoption among working professionals
- Working capital management in manufacturing firms

Quantitative vs qualitative MCom projects
Most Amity MCom projects use quantitative survey-based research with SPSS or Excel—demographic profiles, Likert-scale responses, correlation, and regression. Qualitative projects using interviews or case studies are acceptable if methodology is justified at postgraduate level.
Topics to avoid
- Overly broad topics impossible to cover in 15,000–30,000 words
- Topics with no accessible data or respondent pool
- Copied topics from online project sample websites
- Topics unrelated to commerce or your MCom coursework
