St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous), Kolkata is an institution that transforms lives. It has always strived to nurture and consolidate the skills and calibre of its students to help them prevail with fervour and spirit, teaching them to break paradigms, aspire higher, and raise the bar each time. Aptly, its motto is ’Nihil Ultra’ - Nothing Beyond. The College was founded in 1860 by the Society of Jesus, with the ideal of ‘Magis’ - for the better and the greater, and has completed 162 years of excellence. The vision of the institution entails/encompasses to promote a society based on love, freedom, liberty, justice, equality and fraternity. Its commerce department, where brilliance is a way of life, has been home to luminaries like L.N. Mittal, Sunil K. Khaitan, Noomi Mehta and Sanjiv Goenka.
The Xavier's Commerce Society is one of the most prestigious and sought after societies in St. Xavier's College, Kolkata. It embodies the drive and vigour that portrays a Xaverian and pursues to impart a multitude of opportunities and apertures to aid students in gaining enriching corporate exposure and experience. The society, with every initiative it conducts, seeks to enhance, augment as well as advance its capacities with each passing day. Since its inception in 2006, it has weathered every obstacle in its wake, as well as shifting to an entirely online medium for conducting its events, while also being able to adapt to a hybrid mechanism; and ultimately transitioning back to an offline medium – all of which underlines its dedication and determination to fulfil its objectives. By organising holistic events throughout the academic year, which focuses on all aspects of modern-day management, the society ensures that every student is taught practical lessons as it believes that education should transcend academic books.
The motto of Xavier's Commerce Society is 'Dreams. Development. Destiny'.
Dreams symbolise the aspirations and desires of a person. Development stands for the process of gradual advancement from the stage of aspiration to the stage of fulfilment of one's dreams. Destiny refers to that enigmatic force which controls an individual's future.
