Essar Group Of Companies

Our main office is Essar House, located at 11 Keshavrao Khadye Marg in the Mahalaxmi area of Mumbai. It’s a big building, and there are a lot of us working here across different departments. Being in Mahalaxmi means you’re right in the heart of the city's history, with the racecourse and the old buildings all around. The office itself is always buzzing. You have people coming in from all over the city, dealing with the local trains and the traffic just to get to their desks by nine. It’s a large operation, so you see a lot of different things happening every day. We have people working on shipping, steel, power, and all sorts of other projects. It can feel a bit overwhelming if you aren’t used to the scale of it. We spend a lot of time in meetings or on conference calls, trying to make sure all the different parts of the group are moving in the same direction. It’s not always smooth; there are plenty of days where things go wrong or deadlines get missed, but that’s just how it goes when you have this many people involved. Even though it’s a large company, there are still plenty of small groups who have worked together for years and know each other’s families. We’re just a big collection of people trying to manage a lot of different businesses from one spot in Mumbai. It keeps us all busy enough.
