Birla & Company, Chartered Accountant

Birla & Company is based out of the Lake Town complex in Pune. We are up on the sixth floor of the C-5 wing. It’s a decent place to work from because it’s a bit away from the main road noise. The office isn't very large, just enough space for the desks and all the filing cabinets we need for our clients' records. As chartered accountants, we spend most of our time looking at bank statements and tax documents. It’s a lot of detail-oriented work, but that’s just how it goes in this profession. We deal with a variety of people, some have small businesses and others just need help with their personal tax returns. Every day is a bit different depending on which deadline is coming up next. We don't really go in for fancy decor or big signs. Most people hear about us from their friends or neighbors in the Lake Town area. We try to be helpful and explain things in a way that makes sense, without using too much jargon. The commute can be a bit of a pain sometimes with the Pune traffic, but once we're in the office, it's pretty productive. We usually have the radio playing softly in the background while we work through the ledgers. It feels like a normal, local workplace where we just try to do our best by the people who trust us with their finances.
