The Seminar was organised for the first and second year students. Also present there was the staff of Commerce Department. The Chief Speaker was Prof. K.V.

Sir has demonstrated excellence across teaching, research and service for many years.

The event commenced with a speech by the Principal, Dr. V.K. Kawatra and felicitation of the Speaker and the Principal, Ms. Beauty Das, Convener of Commerce Society. Prof. Murthy then started with the presentation on Business Ethics to develop an understanding and to get over with the hazy notions on the theme. His main focus of the discussion was corporate governance, corporate social responsibility and environmental accountability.

The students were so engrossed in the seminar that they raised quiet challenging questions and clarified their doubts. This was followed by a discussion among the students, teachers and the chief speaker.

The program ended with a vote of thanks by the society members and the convener. The seminar was a huge success. Commerce Society, once again demonstrated effective team management and established a new benchmark for its success. We wish to organize more such events in future.
