Dalmia Cement (Bharat)Ltd

Up here in the N.C. Hills of Assam, our Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd. team works out of the accounts department within the Calcom Cement plant in Umrangshu. The zip code is 788931, but out here, directions are usually based on landmarks and local knowledge. Being based at the plant means we are right in the thick of the manufacturing process. It is a bit of a trek to get up here, and the weather can be unpredictable, but the views of the hills are something else when the clouds clear. We spend our days staring at balance sheets and making sure the financial side of the cement production stays on track. It is a busy environment with the sound of machinery in the distance and people constantly coming in and out with vouchers and delivery notes. The office itself is practical and built for work, not for showing off. We deal with a lot of the local logistics that keep the Assam operations running smoothly. It’s a tight-knit group in the accounts office because we are a bit isolated from the bigger cities. We drink a lot of tea and work through the piles of paperwork that come with running a big cement facility. It’s not always easy, especially when the monsoon rains make travel difficult, but we have a good routine going. We just focus on the numbers and making sure everything is accounted for at the end of every month.
