Debarati Roy
Founder- ELTAGLOBAL.IN
Debasish is a fine artist. I have had the pleasure of working with him at ELTAGLOBAL. From establishing the brand, designing the website, managing social platforms, promoting the brand- he has done it all with impeccable perfection.
Debasish is a visionary. His foresightedness is something to bank upon. He can anticipate the consequences of every situation and act accordingly. He has an eye for detail, too. He is intuitive and innovative.
Swarnab Ghosh
Instructional Designer
One of the advantages of working with Debasish is that he understands the content very well. That is a rare trait, hardly found in art persons. Sometimes he even used to suggest lines to the copywriter and they were indeed, good.
Debasish has a refined sense of design. His choice of colours is quite eclectic. Being a senior person, he can work on any brief and really tight deadlines.
I wish him all the best in his career and future endeavours.
Prateek Nagpal
Manager- Brands at Edelman Events
Debasish has always been a great resource for all the Wizzes. His involvement has been phenomenal starting from the Ideation to Execution process in Creatives.
I have worked with him on various projects from conferences, product launches, exhibitions to festivals etc. He is witty & sharp in understanding the requirements of different clients depending upon the brand, type of the event and target market.
From plain to multi-hued Creatives, as per event's demand- he has done it all in a very effective manner &, more importantly, in prescribed time limit.
I would love to work with him again.
Keep the flow going :)

Debasish is technically very sound, with an eye for detail & an ear for very good music. All of which makes for a decent creative combination. We have worked on award winning BTL projects, too (Schneider Electric exhibition @ Elecrama 2010). I am sure he will keep doing the good work that he has set out to do.

Debasish brought a much needed zephyr into the over-used term of "web design". We worked at a time when web designing was dangerously close to become another hackneyed phrase; every Tom Dick and Harry was a "web designer" ! Deva da, as he was popularly known, made web designing an art form. And he ensured that functionality was not "abstract".
Debasish was a great visualizer ! And his forte was to provide an element of "art" in the most mundane of subject. The thing I liked most about Deva da was this :: It was always intellectually stimulating and great fun working with him!
I wish Debasish all the very best in his creative endeavours, this man deserves every bit of it!
