Ashwinkumar R Saraiya

My office is up on the 6th floor of the Sahyog Building in Lal Darwaja. It’s room number 10. Being right opposite Dinbai Tower is helpful for people trying to find the place for the first time. Lal Darwaja is a very famous part of Ahmedabad, so it’s always crowded and full of life. From the 6th floor, you can see a bit of the city moving below, which is nice when you need a break from looking at numbers. Ashwinkumar R Saraiya is just me and my small team. We don't have a big corporate structure. We just sit at our desks and work through the files. The building is an older one, so it has that classic Ahmedabad feel. We’ve been here for a long time. The office is filled with old ledgers and modern computers side by side. It shows how things have changed over the decades. I don't go for fancy titles or polished presentations. I just sit down with people and go over their accounts. It’s a very direct way of working. Most of the people who come here have been doing so for years. They know the elevator is a bit temperamental and they know they’ll get a straight answer from me. It’s a modest way to run a practice, but it’s honest and it works for us and the people we help.
