| In late 1993, when we decided to set up a
joint-venture engineering company in the
hydrocarbon sector - we had a lot of
choices but we settled on Vadodara - not
just because Gujarat is the capital of the
hydrocarbon industry but because
Vadodara, in particular, is in a
strategically important location. |
|
| There are several hydrocarbon industries
in close proximity, it is very well
connected to all the major cities and it is
an emerging city with growing
infrastructure.
|
|
| There are great academic institutions, a
big talent pool of engineering graduates, a very |
|
|
| cosmopolitan and smart
crowd, top-class housing, and
entertainment, sporting events and
festivals happening through the
year. So this city offers a great
work-life balance and an excellent
standard and quality of life to our
people. |
|
| On the other hand, L&T offers a
great culture. Personally I enjoy the
warmth, the culture, the heritage
and the right blend that exists here -
of art, education, entertainment
and work. It's hard to get this in
other places. |
