Dear Friends,
It was the birthday of my father, the founder of Ashiana, and it was wonderful to
hear all the beautiful stories about him from the Ashiana employees. What was even
more heart-warming was their decision to celebrate his birthday by giving away three
rickshaws to the needy. I would like to thank Mrs. Joys Panicker for this special effort.
Attending the ‘Ageing-in-Place’ conference in Birmingham, UK, I realised that Senior
Living problems and solutions are much the same the world over ; cultural differences
will of course call for some fine-tuning. I was pleased to note that what we are offering
is very similar to what is on offer in places that have a longer history and experience in
this field. Of course, what really gives me a feeling of intense satisfaction is that Care
Homes is succeeding in improving the quality of life of its residents. I am sure you
too will come away with a feel-good emotion when you watch our video ‘Carehomes
(Assisted Living) facility in India’ on youtube.com/ashianahousing1
Our CSR activities are continuously increasing and gradually affecting more and more
lives. Ashiana Maintenance Services did a Clean-up Drive with the help of the residents
of various projects and not only did they remove the plastic and paper thrown about,
but they actually ended up making it a fun activity. I am sure we will continue doing this
and make it a regular event.
Another initiative that I really liked was our HR Departments recognition of employees
for things that go beyond the scope of their work, like contribution to social causes,
reading books as well as practicing the core values of the company in their personal
lives. This recognition will motivate us all to improve in every way and lead Ashiana to
become an even more caring organization.
We are pleased to launch another project, ‘Rangoli Plaza’ at Jaipur and also the new
Phase in ‘Ashiana Anantara’ at Jamshedpur called Leo. We look forward to your
support as always.

In Memoriam: October 5, Our Founder’s Birthday
On the Birthday of our Late Chairman Emeritus, Om Gupta, here are a few stories about him which embody the Core Values
of the Company: Stories that older Ashianites remember with love and affection; stories that will give a glimpse of the man to
newcomers in the Ashiana family who may not have met him.
Happiness all Around
Transparency
Place: Patna, Year: 1988. Lalan Singh was well into his
sixties but content with his job description of ‘office boy’. He
was equally laid back in his personal style; he would come
to the office unshaven, and in chappals. OPG, a stickler for
neatness and good grooming, walked up to him one day and
asked him what the cost of a shave was and then handed
him enough money for a month’s shave. He also handed
over another amount, saying, ‘get yourself a pair
of shoes too’. The joy on Lalan’s face was now
indeed that of a young boy - for this was his very
first pair of shoes!
Place: Jamshedpur, Year: 1996. Ashiana Gardens was
ready for occupation. However, no one in Ashiana or
Jamshedpur had any idea how maintenance charges were
to be levied on the residents. OPG asked Mr. Sengupta
to calculate the amount likely to be spent on monthly
maintenance, stressing that there should be no unfairness
or over charging. After he was satisfied with the accuracy
of the charges, he met the RWA and shared
with them details of how they had arrived at the
figures. And only then were the maintenance
charges at Ashiana Gardens fixed.
Going the Extra Mile
Never Give Up
Place: Jamshedpur, Year: 1989. An unkempt
man stood at the door of the office. He had heard
about OPG’s generosity and had come looking for
help as he did not have money for his wife’s cancer
treatment. OPG spoke to the man and then, taking time out from
his very tight schedule, he accompanied him to the hospital.
After meeting the wife, OPG deposited the sum of the treatment
- Rs. 24000/- at the hospital itself. Astute and wise, and not a
believer in lip service, he went the extra mile to ensure that the
case was genuine and the money was put to the right use.
To Sir, With Love
Place: Jamshedpur, Year: 2001. Construction
work at Ashiana Sun City had been stalled by the
Labour Department for alleged ‘irregularities’ even
though all statutory obligations had been complied
with. After months of efforts, OPG was told that clearance
would be given in the ‘next 2-3 days’. He reached Jamshedpur.
The ‘2-3 days’ kept getting extended... but OPG refused to give
up or leave Jamshedpur till it was done. Knocking at the Labour
Dept.’s doors daily, he got the clearance after 15 days. And only
then did he return, having given his team the go-ahead.
Your values and beliefs,
in your reflection we will grow
There may be impediments galore, but we will show
How your guidance, your memories,
your unforgettable smile
Will keep us going, every hour, the extra mile.

The
‘Ageing-inPlace’ Conference
held in the UK to
focus on Senior
Housing brought
together
120
international senior
level
decision
makers
from
the industry. The
Ashiana Jt. MD
event showcased
Ankur Gupta at the innovative models
‘Ageing-in-Place’
and services for
conference
older
people,
highlighting the importance of proper
housing and environment for seniors.
Delegates also had the opportunity to
tour a new state-of-the-art retirement
village. Ashiana Jt. MD Ankur Gupta
was invited to share Ashiana Utsav’s
experiences and future plans in the
Senior Housing sector.
The Charity Box at Ashiana gets filled with contributions from
employees, and as per our Late Chairman Emeritus Om Gupta’s
decision, the company doubles the amount collected by the
employees and the amount is given to a deserving cause.
It was decided that the best way to celebrate OPG’s birthday
would be to find a deserving cause and fill up the Charity Box.
Ext. Assistant Mrs. Joys Panicker and her team suggested that
Rickshaws be bought for Rickshaw pullers who have to shell out
Rs. 50 per day to hire out a rickshaw. The team short listed three
rickshaw pullers who had large family responsibilities.
On the eve of OPG’s birthday, Joint MD Mr Ankur Gupta gave
them the three rickshaws. Distribution of sweets and the joy on
the faces of the three men standing by their new rickshaws made
for a wonderful way to celebrate the birthday of our founder.

A life of joy at every step
A life that lives, even after death.
A life that touched every breadth

Yet thru the mist we smile, for there he stands…

Rani who coordinated the program.
In the words of Utsav resident Mr. M
C Rastogi, “This was one of the best
experiences I have had recently.”
That Healing Touch
Mr. Vishwanathan gives a ‘Thumbs -up’ sign!
When Mr. T S Vishwanathan, aged
92, was brought to Care Homes, he
was totally bed ridden; not only was
he unable to sit, he could not move his
limbs and was also unable to speak.
Today, four months later, it gives
us great pleasure to see that he is
able to sit without support for more
than one hour. He recognises his
caregivers, speaks very clearly, and is
able to move his hands. He expresses
his likes and dislikes, which is another
indication of his progress.

about him in our Video ‘Carehomes

Bhajans and the children performed

Ashiana’s Core Values
Ajit Singh, Estate
Officer, Ashiana
Arcade, Bhiwadi,
is a true believer
in ‘Never giving
up’. During the
Pooja season, there had been
reports of attempts at stealing
bikes. Ajit positioned himself
at the Main Gate and single
handedly caught the two thieves
while they were attempting to
break a bike lock. He also seized
the car that the thieves had
come in. We salute his bravery
and commitment!

We’ve Got Mail...
Your recent notice to save
at Ashiana Utsav, Jaipur has
appreciated. I remember that a
notice was placed about 12
month ago as well.

The temple at Utsav sees a good
gathering of residents on a regular basis
As an agricultural scientist who has
worked in drought prone countries with
F.A.O. (United Nations), I appreciate the
efforts of Ashiana Maintenance Services
and the developer in this direction.
My wife and I moved into our Ashiana
Utsav flat in Bhiwadi in November
2012 on returning from USA. We have
met so many nice families here. Your
management staff is there to help us
whenever needed. We also met Mr.
Ankur Gupta, Jt. MD, who spoke to us
like we were his family members! The
temple has a good gathering of people.
The canteen food is reasonably priced
and tasty. The park is kept clean. Your
canteen staff and security staff too
are doing a good job. I have got all the
facilities in Ashiana Utsav that I was
getting in USA. God bless you!
The efforts of AMS to develop an informal
garden with plants requiring minimum
water, and its waste-water processing
are outstanding contributions towards
green initiatives.
So, CONGRATULATIONS! But let us not
forget that there is sufficient scope for
further improvement.

The Ashiana Book Club at Bhiwadi
The Ashiana Book Club was
recognized at the monthly
Management Meeting for its
success in cultivating the reading
habit
amongst
employees.
Within four and half months the
club has enrolled about 50%
of the employees as members
and has a collection of over a
100 books.
Mr. Harvinder Singh, Manager,
Sales & Accounts, Bhiwadi, has
started a similar club at the
Bhiwadi office.
We hope you will consider our suggestion.
High tributes were also paid to Shri
Om Gupta, the architect behind this
Paradise No.1 in Asia.

FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION ONLY
We enjoyed the sharing session on ‘How
Beautiful Utsav is’ which was conducted
by Resident Shri Vasant Nair in August.
The session kindled fond experiences of
Utsavites at Utsav. It pulled out some of us
from the sulking mode we often get into
and rejuvenated us, reminding us to enjoy
life as it is meant to be enjoyed. Some of
us expressed the feeling that once you
settle down in Utsav, you forget the world!
The large central garden is very beautiful
and also very well maintained on a daily
basis. However, we have not seen any
Tulsi or Peepal trees in this garden. We
urge the Ashiana Management to
please plant some Tulsi (which has great
medicinal value) and Peepal (which has
a lot of religious value).
Please send contributions for Aap ki kalam se, with your full
name, address and photograph. Published pieces will get a gift
from our Jt. MD, Ankur Gupta. Contributions may be in English
or Hindi, not more than 175 words and it should be something
positive! Negative thoughts go against the Ashiana Philosophy.

It is good to receive the Apna Ashiana
quarterly magazines on a regular basis
and we read these carefully. We have
visited Ashiana Utsav at Jaipur a couple
of times and are in the process of buying
one flat in its phase-IV.
