Balmukund N Shah

I’ve been here at Devanandan Apartment for quite a while now. It’s D 11, which isn't hard to find once you get into this part of Ahmedabad. People know the building. Balmukund N Shah is the name on the door. It’s just me and sometimes a couple of others helping out with the daily paperwork and the calls that come through. We don’t have a big fancy office with glass walls or anything like that. It’s just a regular place where we get the work done. The 380061 area is busy, but inside here, it stays quiet enough to focus. I started this because I wanted something of my own. Most days are just spent sorting through things, talking to people who drop by, and making sure everything is in order. It’s not a big corporate operation. We know the neighbors and the security guards. Sometimes the lift in the apartment block is slow, but we make do. Gujarat is home, and Ahmedabad is where the work happens. If you’re looking for D 11, you just come up. We don't have big signs outside. Just a small nameplate on the door. It’s a simple way of working. No big meetings or long speeches. Just the usual tasks that need doing every day. I’ve been in this spot for years, and it works for us. The tea guy comes around 11, and that’s usually when we take a break. It is just life and work mixed together here.
