Kukreja avers, "After completing my graduation in Electrical Engineering in the year 1967, I realized that traditional desk jobs or Govt. Jobs were not my cup of tea.

Pondering over what to do, I Incidentally met one of the leading Architects of that time and told him about my inclination towards lighting and electrical design. All of a sudden, he asked me whether I would be keen on designing the complete Electrical system for the expansion of a renowned College in Delhi. As soon as I agreed, I was provided all the drawings and about 10 days time to complete the job. Without the assistance of Computers & Calculators, I finished the job in 4 days. Not only he was pleasantly surprised but also handed me the cheque of an amount which was very much beyond my expectations. After an in detailed discussion, he advised me to start the consultancy work. That is how the V.S. Kukreja and Associates was started in November, 1969."
