This paper explores whether commerce education in Indian universities creates visionaries or merely trains students for clerical roles. Based on original narratives, real-life case studies, and lived experiences of students and educators, this research analyzes the educational, cultural, and social structures that shape the career choices of commerce graduates. Drawing from qualitative fieldwork and original writings, the study critiques the conventional curriculum that emphasizes theoretical knowledge over practical business acumen. The study calls for an urgent shift toward experiential, entrepreneurship-driven learning across Indian universities.
