Software Research Group/Infokall Inc.

If you ever walk down Muktaram Babu Street in Kolkata, you know it’s a pretty crowded area with a lot of history. That’s where Software Research Group and Infokall Inc. are located, specifically at number 150. We’ve got a small setup here where we mostly deal with technical stuff and data. It’s not like those big glass buildings you see in the tech parks. We are right in the middle of the city noise. Sometimes you can hear the traffic and the street sellers while we are trying to fix a piece of code or sort out some research notes. It gets quite busy inside. We have computers lined up and wires running across the floor in some spots. It's a real working environment, not something out of a brochure. Most of us have been here a long time, so we know the local shops for lunch and where to get the best snacks. The work is mostly about solving little problems that pop up in the software we look at. Some days we spend hours just staring at a screen trying to find one mistake. It’s not always exciting, but it’s what we do. We don't really do much in the way of big meetings. We just talk across the desks to get things done. The building is older, but it serves us well enough for what we need to accomplish every day.
