Over the years, since the inception in 1990, the Konkan Unnati Mitra Mandal’s Vasantrao Naik College of Arts, Commerce and Barrister A.R.. Antulay Science College, Mhasla has strived hard to cater at least the basic need of Education so that the socio-economically deprived students can avail good education without an extra monetary burden on the day-to-day expenses from their parents.

Realizing the importance of education for development of the society, our inspiring and visionary personality: Late Barrister A. R. Antulay took an initiative and started this college in 1990 at Mhasala in  Raigad Dist.. Though Mhasala is a Taluka place, during the inception of this Institution, it was yet a neglected and deprived of higher education, communication and basic facilities required to live a moderate life. This situation adversely affected the socio-economic life of the society.

Initially, the College was run in a modest rented building with limited students in the Arts and Commerce stream. Due to the Innovative perseverance of our founder Br. A. R. Antulay Saheb and committed stakeholders, a new building was constructed and the college was shifted to an owned campus in 2003. Selection of the location is the reflection of maturity, foresight and proper decision making of our Top Management. Our location is conducive for learning and teaching process, sprawling in 7.2 acres, conserving biodiversity, rich flora and fauna, as well as peace and tranquility. 

Every year the strength of students is growing manifold, in Commerce as well as Arts faculties. This growth enforced Management to start the Science stream in 2016-17 to cater to the education need of the society.  This college was named: Barrister A. R. Antulay Science College. Also M. Com in Advanced Accountancy was eventually initiated, which received a good response from student community.

Our Institution being student centric, the overall development of students to making them competent to face and succeed in competitive age is our main objective behind the establishment of this Institution. Our Institution always gives priority to serve the interest of underprivileged, down trodden, poor and needy students irrespective of their caste, creed, religion and region etc.  Various incentives, amenities financial and non-financial are provided to them to uplift themselves. Female students, particularly are well protected and respected in the college campus. Students with physical disabilities are also taken care by providing special infrastructural and educational facilities. The college goes an extra mile for the holistic development of students by organizing various skill based and extra-curricular activities throughout the year.

Our President, Hon’ble Mr. Mushtaq Antulay, and his colleagues in the management are the think tank of this Institution & they go an extra mile to inspire and guide us to upgrade the overall quality in education.  Under the guidance of the management, this College equips itself to keep pace with the latest developments in the field of education and technology. Digitization of Library, increasing the stock of useful books, well equipped laboratories and spacious auditorium, replacement of traditional teaching learning process by ICT enabled technology, are on our Agenda and implementation is progressing at a very fast pace.
