An article was titled and printed in Powai pageant in early seventies and it continued." None is better qualified to answer this question than a draftsman in Architectural dept." John A Gonsalves was the first drawing office staff member recruited by L&T partnership, a joint decision of William Bendictson, H.H. Larsen and S.K.Toubro in1942. He had not only the opportunity to work with the founders of L&T but also the chance to rub shoulders with them. At that time John did not calculate the risk of joining a one room firm but recognized their potential, kept faith and continued "In service lies success."This story of John reveals other side of L&T's struggle for survival, the true life experiences of the founders and John, never told before since its inception. It is based on long comprehensions between John and his son Raymond.
