As a company, our core purpose has always been to bring about a smile of satisfaction and it is heartening to be recognised by the outside world for the hard work that our team puts in to bring our purpose to life.
As our founder, Om Gupta, always said, Ashiana is not just about building structures; we work towards building happy communities. One of the ways we do that is by organising various activities from religious and cultural celebrations to inter-Ashiana competitions.
