Nilchhaya Associates

Our office, Nilchhaya Associates, is based in the Nigidi Sabarmati area. It’s a location that’s easy enough to find once you know the landmarks. We have a modest setup here with just the basic furniture and equipment we need to get through the day. The atmosphere is pretty relaxed most of the time. We aren't the type of people to wear suits every day; we prefer being comfortable while we work. The neighborhood is a mix of homes and small businesses, so there’s a nice sense of community. We see the same people walking their dogs or going to the grocery store every morning. Our work involves a lot of coordination and keeping track of different details, so we spend a lot of time on the phone or at our computers. It’s not very exciting to watch, but it keeps us busy. Sometimes we have clients come over to go through some documents, and we usually just sit around the main table. We don't have a receptionist, so one of us just gets the door when someone knocks. It’s a small team here, so we all end up doing a bit of everything, from cleaning the office to handling the accounts. We’ve been here long enough that the place feels like a second home. We just take things one day at a time and do what's needed. There’s always plenty to do and not enough hours in the day.
