ABOUT
Southern Railway, in its present form, came into existence on 14th April 1951 through the merger of the three state railways namely the Madras and Southern Mahratta Railway, the South Indian Railway, and the Mysore State Railway.
Originally known as Tevatia Chauhan & Sharma Architects, the practice was later renamed Design Forum International (DFI) in 2003. The rebranding aimed to create an inclusive work environment where architectural talent could flourish and contribute collaboratively. With a dedicated team of over 100 professionals, DFI has experienced significant growth and upholds a strong architectural ethos based on values.
