TAIKA

You can find us at D-7, right above the main area in Defence Colony. It’s a good spot because everything we need is close by. We spend most of our time upstairs here, working through whatever projects are on the table for the day. TAIKA isn't a huge operation, just a few of us making sure things run the way they’re supposed to. The stairs up to the office are a bit narrow, but once you’re inside, it’s a quiet place to get work done. We usually start the day with some tea and a look at the schedule. Defence Colony has changed a lot over the years, but our building stays pretty much the same. We don’t really do the whole corporate thing with fancy meetings and polished presentations. We just focus on the actual work. It’s more about being practical and getting the orders out. Sometimes it gets a little cramped when new stock arrives, but we shuffle things around to make it fit. We like being in this part of Delhi because it feels like a community. Most of the other shop owners around here know us by name. If you’re walking by and look up, you’ll probably see our lights on until late evening. It is a simple setup, but it gets the job done for us. We just keep our heads down and stay busy with the daily chores of running the business. There is always something to do.
