Divyesh Desai Associates, A'Bad

Even though our name mentions Ahmedabad, our office is located at 37, Devkrupa Society in Patan, Gujarat. It’s a residential neighborhood, so it’s fairly quiet most of the time. We work out of a house that we’ve converted into an office space. It has a small front area where we park our scooters. Inside, there are three main rooms filled with desks and a lot of cabinets for all the documents we have to keep. Patan is a historical place, and being in Devkrupa Society feels very much like being part of the community. We don't have any big corporate signs out front, just a small board so people know they’ve reached the right place. Most of our work is done on the computers, but we still use a lot of paper for everything. We don't have a strict dress code or anything like that. We just come in, do the work, and go home. Sometimes the neighbors stop by just to say hello. It’s a very local way of doing things. We don't have a marketing team or a website that we update. We just rely on the fact that we’ve been here for years and people know we do honest work. It’s a simple life in Patan, and our office is just a small part of it. We keep things practical and don't make any big promises we can't keep. Our desks are a bit old, and the chairs creak, but they do the job just fine for us.
