Diwali, the festival of lights, symbolising the victory of good over evil, was celebrated with enthusiasm across Samsung India’s offices. The company’s headquarters in Gurgaon was a sight to behold, with the entire office decorated with diyas (clay lamps), lanterns and balloons. Employees turned up in ethnic wear, creating an atmosphere of colour and fun.
