Larson & Toubro Ltd. Barmer

Larson & Toubro Ltd. Barmer has a spot here in Kanpur at L.I.G.-8, Hemant Vihar in Barra-2. It is a bit confusing to some people because the name says Barmer, but we are definitely based in Uttar Pradesh for this work. This is a residential area mostly, so our office is tucked away among houses and local shops. The building is a typical LIG flat, nothing too big or special. We have a small team here handling things. Kanpur is a busy city and Barra-2 is always full of life. There is a lot of traffic on the main roads, but our street stays a bit calmer. We use this space to keep track of our materials and the people working on the sites nearby. There are maps on the walls and plenty of ledgers on the desks. We don't have any fancy receptionists or waiting rooms. You just walk in and someone will be there at a desk. We spend a lot of time on the phone or typing out reports. Sometimes the power goes out, but we just wait for it to come back and keep going. It is a very hands-on environment. Most of us have been with the company for years and we know how things work. We don't need a lot of space to get the job done. It’s just about having a central point to meet and talk about the projects in Kanpur.
