Larsen & Toubro Limited

Our office is tucked away on the second floor of Saptarshi Apartment. If you are looking for us, we are in Flat No 4 at 17, Gopal Lal Tagore Road in Kolkata. It’s a busy part of town, so there is always noise from the street coming through the windows. We’ve been here for a long time, and the space is full of old folders and maps. Larsen & Toubro Limited has a lot of history in this city, and this little branch is part of that. We aren't a big corporate headquarters with glass walls. It’s just a regular flat turned into a workspace. Sometimes the lift in the building is slow, so we end up taking the stairs. It keeps us moving. We spend our mornings going over plans and our afternoons on the phone with suppliers. There are three or four of us here most days. We drink a lot of tea and try to keep the paperwork organized, though it piles up fast. Being in North Kolkata means we are close to everything, which helps when we need to get to a site quickly. It’s a bit cramped when we have visitors, but we make it work. It’s a real place where real work happens. Nothing fancy, just us doing what we need to do to keep the projects moving forward. We like the neighborhood and the people who live in the building. It feels right to be here.
