The township of Dombivli has a few degree colleges, which are not sufficient to meet the ever-increasing demand for higher education. Every year it is witnessed that the pressure of admissions for degree courses cannot accommodate all the aspirants. Hence, some of them seek admission in far-off places, away from the from the Dombivli township. The Karnataka Sangha, therefore, took the initiative of starting a degree college. The Government of Maharashtra and the University of Mumbai have granted permission to Karnataka Sangha to establish and start “Manjunatha College of Commerce“ – from the academic year 1999-2000. The college is housed at our College building situated at Kanchangaon, Khambalpada, Thakurli (E), and is at a walking distance from the Municipal Grounds. The Junior and Degree Colleges are functioning, at present, from the ground floor of the College Building. The construction of 1st and 2nd floor of the college building was in full speed & it is earnest desire of the Sangha to complete the construction at the earliest to open the floodgates of Higher Education in various fields and to various sections of the society.

The Junior college of Commerce has been started on un-aided basis from the academic year 2006-07 to provide education for XI and XII std. in the Commerce Stream.

Along with traditional degree course of B.Com, Management of Karnataka Sangha´s Manjunatha College of Commerce Thakurli (E) has started Bachelor in Management Studies (BMS) degree course from the academic year 2010-11 and M.Com with Advance Accountancy from the academic year 2013- 14 affiliated to University of Mumbai, which has added a new feather to the institution.
