CETA – The Calcutta Electric Traders Association was founded in 1939 by Late D.N. Mukherjee, Late Damodar Das Mundhra, Late Jin Charan Dass, Late R.N. Kapoor, Late K.H. Tangree and others who had tried their best to make CETA to reach at the pinnacle. CETA started its operations from the premises of Sri Debi Dutt Sarawagi presently known as M/s. Balabux Singhania & Sons, then shifted to Tiretta Bazar and then to existing current address at 55, Ezra Street, 2nd Floor, Kolkata – 700 001. In 1972 a new Era began in the history of CETA when our own centrally located CETA hall was acquired with the untiring efforts of Late Gopal Das Mundhra, Office Bearers & Executive Committee Members. They deserved accolades for raising the fund. CETA Hall was inaugurated by Late Misri Lal Sinha under the presidentship of Late S.K. Khaitan, secretary Late A.N.
