Arun Ravindra Gupta & Co

Varanasi is a crowded city, but our office area in Hukulganj is a bit more settled. Arun Ravindra Gupta & Co operates out of a house called Janki Sadan, specifically House No. S-9/11. Working from a house gives the whole thing a different feel than a commercial plaza. It is a bit more relaxed, though the work itself is still plenty busy. We have rooms set up for different tasks, and there are always papers spread out on the tables. We have been in Hukulganj for a good while, so the neighbors all know who we are. It is the kind of place where you might hear a cow in the street or kids playing nearby while we are trying to finish a report. We don't have big glowing signs or anything like that. We just have our name on a small board near the entrance. Inside, it’s just us doing the daily grind. We handle a lot of local paperwork and talk to people who come by with questions. The stairs are a bit narrow, and the floors are plain, but it’s a solid place to work. We don't spend much time worrying about how the office looks to outsiders. As long as we can find the files we need and the pens are working, we are happy enough. It is a simple life and a simple way of doing business in a very old city. We just stay busy and keep at it.
