Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd

You can find us at B 13 in the Rituparna Apartment building, right near the Kothrud Stand. It’s actually Sachin Gulhane’s place where we’ve set up our office. Kothrud is a lively part of Pune, and being near the bus stand means there is always someone walking past the windows. The apartment itself is pretty standard for the area, not too big. We’ve crammed a few desks in there along with the computers and all the files. It gets a bit warm in the afternoons, but we manage with the fans. Most of the day is just us sorting through documents and making sure the numbers match up. We don't have a big reception area or anything like that. People just come to the door and we help them out with whatever they need. The building has that typical residential feel, so it’s not like walking into a glass skyscraper in the city center. You can smell the neighbors cooking lunch sometimes, usually around one o'clock. It’s a very local way to work. We usually have the radio playing quietly in the background, mostly just to drown out the traffic noise from the main road. My desk is right by the corner, and I have a view of the trees outside. It’s a decent place to spend the day. We aren't doing anything revolutionary, just making sure the bank's work in this corner of Pune gets done properly and on time.
