Vijay Ajmera & Co

We've been at the Thakorbhai Mithaiwala Market on Ring Road for a while now. It’s a busy spot in Surat, especially near Sahara Darwaja. Most days start early here because the market gets crowded fast. People come in with all sorts of paperwork and questions. It is just a small office on the second floor, room 201. We try to keep things organized but sometimes the files pile up when things get busy. Most of our day is spent at the desks looking over numbers or talking to folks who stop by. We don't have a fancy waiting room or anything like that. It's just a practical space where the work happens. My desk is usually covered in folders and a couple of pens that barely work. The building itself is quite old and has that specific smell of paper and stone. You'll find us here Monday through Saturday. Sometimes the lift works, sometimes you have to take the stairs. It’s part of being in this part of town. We know most of the neighbors in the building by now. It isn't a glamorous job but it is steady. We handle the tasks as they come and try to get everyone their answers before the day ends. Living and working in Surat means you get used to the noise from the Ring Road. It’s just how it is. We’re just local people doing our bit for the community.
