We have seen lots of discussion in SO regarding the class vs struct in c#. Mostly ended with conclusions saying its a heap/stack memory allocation. And reco

I think you have the right idea. Structs are made to mimic data-types. They are value driven not reference based. If you look at the MSDN documentation for most of the base data classes (int, double, decimal, ect.) they are all based on structs. That being said however, structs should not be overused for that very same reason. Room to store all everything in that struct is allocated as soon as it is instantiated, where as classes just allocate room for a reference to everything inside. If the data is in small enough chunks where this is not a problem than structs are the way to go. If this is an issue go with classes. If you don't know than it might just be best to stick with what you are familiar with.
