If you have honest intention you will always be successful. It's the popular quote which Arup Roy Choudhury, CMD, National Building Construction Corporation Limited often tells his colleagues and subordinates. And true to his words, Choudhury has always practiced in his life what he has preached others. A man whose integrity, honesty and sincerity are never in doubt, Choudhury has helped the NBCC reach the highest point of excellence and professional ethics. Having made his way upward through dint of hard work, devotion and dedication, Choudhury has enabled NBCC become a pioneer in the construction engineering and consultancy services, providing efficient and quality execution of projects.

Known for providing services conforming to ISO-9000 series and Development of Human Resources in tune with globalisation, NBCC over the period has been able to confirm itself to the highest degree of customers' satisfaction. And it goes without saying that the successes have largely been possible because of the untiring efforts of people like Choudhury who have steered the course of NBCC to global excellence. A wholly owned Government of India Enterprise, NBCC has completed several projects in the areas of hi-tech projects in environmental, infrastructure development and in power sector.

As it always happens with the best of the companies, the NBCC, all along its progression, adopted new materials, methods and hybridization of technologies to deliver the best. With a single-minded devotion, Choudhury has always ensured that there is no compromise on the quality of the services that the NBCC is rendering to its customers. After having worked with RITES, IRCON and DLF, Choudhury is among the few PSU top brasses who have had a long association with the private sector. Probably, this explains his success in bringing high efficiency and timely completion of projects at the NBCC too. NBCC has achieved a turnover of over Rs.1317 crore during the financial year 2005-06, thus becoming the largest public sector construction company. The company, which was suffering from severe financial constraints, had a negative net-worth and was also referred for disinvestment, has now grown from Rs.300 crore to Rs.1300 crore plus company within a short span of five years. There has also been all round performance improvement in all measurable parameters and the credit goes to Choudhary. Moreover, NBCC has been Adjudged as the "Best Public Sector Unit" and Awarded Building Industry Leadership Award - 2006 by BIB. Choudhary has, beyond doubt, ensured skill and knowledge development in the organisation.

It's high-degree of professionalism displayed by Choudhury and his predecessors that the NBCC was ranked at 179th among the top 225 international contractors by Engineering News Records, a prestigious publication based in the US. Employing more than 1300 highly qualified and experienced engineers, technocrats and professionals, NBCC has completed several international projects in countries like Mauritius, Nepal, Maldives, Libya, Iraq, Yemen and Turkey. And the growth and expansion of NBCC continue, thanks to the leadership, vision and value that Choudhury has imparted to the prestigious organisation.
