SoftPro9 runs Data Science with Machine Learning & AI training as live online batches taught from our Bangalore centre, for learners in BKC, Powai, Andheri, Navi Mumbai and Thane.
Last updated: 28 October 2026
Credit scoring, fraud detection and market analytics make finance the most common data science domain in Mumbai. The course is split into three levels. You can join at the level that matches your experience after a short assessment at counselling.
Mumbai practice: Market data (NSE/BSE-style prices) and transaction data.
Mumbai practice: UPI and payment-gateway flows tested in sandbox mode.
Mumbai practice: Data-privacy and security practice suited to regulated finance.
Freshers usually start in junior or support versions of these roles.

Every tool below is used hands-on in class or in a project, not just mentioned on a slide.
A customer-churn model with feature engineering, explainability and a business write-up
A demand-forecasting model compared against a simple baseline
A document question-answering assistant built with RAG and evaluated on real questions
A capstone deployed as an API and Streamlit app, with experiment tracking in MLflow
Mumbai project: A credit-default model with explainability suitable for a lending decision, using data and conventions from Mumbai.
New batches start every Monday and Thursday, with no more than 15 learners in each. Weekday class slots in IST: 7 AM / 7:30 PM / 9 PM. Weekend slots: 10:30 AM / 10:30 PM.
Late-evening slots work around long commutes; recordings let learners revise on the train.

Data science uses statistics, programming and machine learning to answer questions and make predictions from data: which customers will churn, how much stock to order, whether a transaction looks fraudulent. A data scientist frames the question, prepares the data, builds and evaluates models, and explains the result to people who will act on it.
The field now overlaps heavily with AI engineering, so alongside classic machine learning (scikit-learn, XGBoost) we cover deep learning with PyTorch, natural language processing with Hugging Face transformers, building on large language models with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and the MLOps needed to put a model into production.
The three fields share tools and are often confused in job titles. The simplest way to tell them apart is by the question each one answers.
| Aspect | Data Analytics | Business Analytics | Data Science |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main question | What happened, and why? | What should the business do? | What will happen, and can we automate the decision? |
| Focus | Cleaning data, reporting, dashboards | Turning analysis into business decisions and plans | Predictive models, machine learning and AI |
| Core tools | Excel, SQL, Power BI, Tableau | Excel, SQL, Power BI, forecasting, BRDs and process maps | Python, statistics, scikit-learn, PyTorch, MLOps |
| Maths needed | Basic statistics | Business statistics and forecasting | Statistics, linear algebra and probability |
| Coding | Low (SQL, some Python) | Low (SQL, light Python) | High (Python every day) |
| Typical output | Dashboards and reports | Recommendations, business cases, requirement documents | Models, predictions and AI features |
| Typical first roles | Data analyst, MIS analyst, Power BI developer | Business analyst, BI analyst, strategy analyst | Junior data scientist, ML engineer |
| Best starting point for | Anyone new to data, any degree | MBA, BBA and commerce graduates, managers | Engineering, maths and statistics graduates, developers |
| Course length here | 14–16 weeks | 14–16 weeks | 24–28 weeks |
Which should you choose? If you are new to data, start with Data Analytics: it is the foundation the other two build on. Choose Business Analytics if you enjoy the business side and want to influence decisions. Choose Data Science if you like programming and maths and want to build predictive models.
Mumbai is India's financial capital: banks, insurers, asset managers, stock exchanges and fintechs are concentrated in BKC, Lower Parel and Nariman Point, with technology teams in Powai, Andheri, Thane and Navi Mumbai. Media, retail and logistics add further demand for developers and analysts.

Generic courses use generic datasets, and interviewers notice. Our exercises include:
| Your background | Start with | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Engineering / maths / statistics graduate | Full course | The maths will feel familiar; the tooling is what you need |
| Data / business analyst | ML modules, then deep learning | You already know SQL and the business; add prediction |
| Software developer | ML basics, then GenAI and MLOps | AI engineering roles value your production skills |
| Commerce / non-technical graduate | Data Analytics first | Build SQL, Excel and statistics before ML |
| Domain expert (finance, healthcare, supply chain) | Full course with a domain capstone | Domain knowledge is what makes models useful |
Common pairings: Data Science + Data Analytics (if you are starting without SQL or statistics), Data Science + Python (if you are new to programming), and Data Science + Web Development (for AI-product roles). Learn one course well before adding a second.
Master the python, maths and data handling before moving on.
Build and publish your projects, including the Mumbai capstone.
Apply for entry roles such as data scientist or machine-learning engineer with employers like the banking, insurance and capital markets above.
Honest note: freshers usually start in junior or trainee roles, and salaries in Mumbai vary too widely for a headline figure. Ask us which openings we are seeing.
Data science has no single official certification. Cloud vendors run optional role exams such as Microsoft Azure Data Scientist Associate (DP-100) and AWS Certified Machine Learning, paid directly to the vendor and not part of our fee; we point out which modules map to them. SoftPro9 issues a course completion certificate. Hiring managers look mainly at your projects and how clearly you explain them.
A 2026 syllabus: look for Streamlit, Docker, PySpark, Databricks, not only the basics.
Projects on your own accounts, a trainer you can meet first, and a published fee with nothing hidden.
No "global certification" or "100% placement" claims: vendors run their own exams, and nobody can promise a job.

The current training fee is listed on the Data Science with Machine Learning & AI course page: /course/data-science-course. It covers live classes, the practice environment, projects and interview preparation. Any optional cloud ML exam (DP-100, AWS ML) is optional, not included, and paid directly to the exam provider.
You need school-level maths and a willingness to learn. We teach the statistics, linear algebra and calculus ideas ML relies on, with intuition and code rather than proofs.
Yes. You work with LLM APIs, build a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) assistant, and learn how to evaluate it, alongside classic ML.
Data analytics explains what happened and why, using SQL, Excel and BI tools. Data science predicts what will happen and builds models. If you are new to data, analytics is the easier start.
No. Deep-learning work runs in GPU-enabled cloud notebooks we provide during the course.
No. Mumbai learners join live online batches taught from Bangalore, with recordings and a 15-learner cap.
Data Analytics for MIS and reporting roles; Data Science for risk and fraud modelling; Python for automation. We advise at counselling.
New Data Science batches start every Monday and Thursday. See the batch table on this page for the next dates and IST class slots.
No. We provide interview preparation, resume help and referrals to openings we hear about in Mumbai, but no institute can honestly guarantee a job.
Tell us your degree, your current job (if any) and where in Mumbai you are. We will suggest a track and a batch that fits.
