The History

Kolkata, formerly Calcutta, is the capital of West Bengal and a major commercial, cultural, and educational center in Eastern India. Historically, the city served as the capital of British India until 1911, a period during which it developed a wealth of colonial architecture and infrastructure, much of which stands to this day, highlighting its storied past. This colonial legacy has contributed significantly to the emergence of an English-speaking population, fostering an environment conducive to global business and cultural exchange. 

Today, Kolkata seamlessly blends historical significance with modern dynamism. As a pivotal city neighboring the states of Bihar and Odisha, it boasts a high literacy rate and thriving academic institutions, such as the University of Calcutta, Jadavpur University, and the Indian Statistical Institute, offering a substantial pool of intellectual and technical talent. 

The presence of major multinational companies and offices, such as TCS, Wipro, IBM, and Cognizant, underscores the city's strategic importance in the IT and services sector. Additionally, the city hosts prominent business centers like Salt Lake Sector V, often referred to as the IT hub of Kolkata, and the Rajarhat New Town, a rapidly developing commercial and residential area. This mix of cultural depth, intellectual prowess, and strategic location makes Kolkata an ideal hub for enterprises seeking heritage and growth opportunities.
