N.K.Batra&Co(Chartered Accountant)

Over here at Jagannath Patana, specifically Plot No 1855, is where you’ll find N.K.Batra&Co. We are in the Old Town section of Bhubaneswar, which is a place with a lot of history. Our work as chartered accountants is pretty much what you’d expect—lots of calculating and double-checking entries. The office isn't huge, but we make the most of the space we have. We keep a lot of physical ledgers still, even though everything is going digital these days. It just feels more real to have the paper in front of you sometimes. The walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but we’re usually too busy with tax season to worry about that. Being in Orissa, we deal with a lot of local folks and small businesses who just want to make sure their accounts are in order. We don't use big words or try to sound more important than we are. We’re just a small team working through the daily grind. Sometimes the fans overhead make a bit of a clicking sound, but it keeps us cool while we work. We drink a lot of coffee during the day to stay focused. It’s a decent place to work, and we like being in this part of the city. We just take things one day at a time, making sure the books balance and the clients are okay. It is a very simple operation.
