Mayur Batra & Co

Our address says 42 E in the LIG Flats of Hari Nagar, which is a bit of a mix between New Delhi and Sonipat vibes depending on how you look at the map. It is a residential kind of setting, so it doesn't feel like those big glass office buildings you see in the city center. We operate out of this flat where the rooms are basically converted into workspaces. There are cables running along the floor and stacks of papers on almost every flat surface. It is a bit cramped when everyone is in at the same time, but we make it work. The neighborhood is fairly quiet, mostly just families and other small offices like ours. We spend a lot of time on the phone or typing away at keyboards. Sonipat has its own pace, and we try to stick to that. Sometimes we have to head into Delhi for meetings, but this flat is the main base where the real grinding happens. The kitchen area is mostly used for making tea or quick snacks when we are working through the lunch hour. It is a very lived-in space, not at all like a showroom. We have some old cupboards that are bursting with records from years ago. It’s just a regular bunch of people doing accounting work in a regular apartment, trying to stay on top of all the rules and regulations that keep changing every single year.
