Smeransh Foundation

We are located in the Rushabh Complex, which is in the Dalia Industrial Estate area of Andheri West. Specifically, we are at office number six. It’s right off the New Link Road, so there is always a lot of movement around us. Being in an industrial estate means it’s not exactly the quietest place to work. You hear the sounds of trucks and people moving goods all day long. But we like the energy of it. It’s a real working-class neighborhood. The complex itself is one of those older concrete buildings that has seen a lot of history. Our office is a bit small, but we make it work with what we have. We’ve got our desks pushed up against the walls to make more room in the middle. There’s a lot of dust that comes in from the road, so we are always wiping down our keyboards. It’s just the way it is in Mumbai. We don't have any big fancy signs on the outside, just a small nameplate near the door. People who need to find us usually know the way. We spend a lot of our time here just handling the paperwork and talking on the phone. Sometimes we go out to the small stalls nearby for a quick snack or some cutting chai. It’s a very practical place to be. We aren't trying to impress anyone with a shiny lobby or anything like that. We just focus on the work we have to do right here in Andheri.
