National Productivity Council

Our spot here at G 1377 in C R Park is easy to find if you know the area. New Delhi 110019 is a busy neighborhood with a lot going on. The National Productivity Council office is on the ground floor, which makes it easier for people to drop off papers without climbing stairs. We have a small area out front where a few scooters are usually parked. Inside, it’s mostly shelves filled with old records and new reports. We use a lot of paper, even though everything is supposed to be digital now. There’s a small kitchen area where we keep the fridge. It makes a weird clunking sound every hour, but it keeps the water cold. We spend our days looking at how different industries are doing. It’s a lot of numbers and charts. Sometimes we sit around the big table in the middle and argue about where a decimal point should go. It’s quiet work for the most part. The street outside can get noisy during the festivals, but usually, it’s just the sound of cars and people walking to the market. We don't have fancy furniture. Most of the chairs have been here longer than I have. One of them has a wobbly leg that we fixed with a folded piece of cardboard. It works fine. We just show up, do the tasks assigned, and go home. It’s a simple routine that we’ve grown quite fond of.
