Palak Construction Pvt Ltd

I’m Ajit S Salunkhe, and I run Palak Construction Pvt Ltd from my place in Mira Road. We are at B-302 Narmada Gagan, which is over in Ramdev Park. It’s a good spot, pretty close to the Cinemax Theater, so everyone knows where it is. Construction is a tough business in Thane because there’s so much competition and the land is always changing. I spend most of my time out at the different sites we have going on, checking on the progress and making sure we haven't run out of bricks or sand. It’s a lot of running around, honestly. My phone never really stops ringing. I started this company because I wanted to build things in my own neighborhood. It’s not a massive operation with hundreds of people. It’s a smaller team where I know everyone’s name. Sometimes the monsoon makes it impossible to work, and we just have to wait it out. That’s the most frustrating part. But when the weather is clear, we’re out there from sunrise. I handle all the main decisions from the Narmada Gagan office. It’s mostly just a desk and a few chairs for when people come by to talk about their projects. We don't do much advertising. People see our signs at the building sites and that’s usually enough. I just try to be fair and get the walls up straight. It’s a living, and it keeps me out of trouble. We just build things that last for the people around here.
