Biscomaun Bhawan, Modern office building in Patna, India

Biscomaun Bhawan is an 18-storey office building near Gandhi Maidan and Golghar in Patna. Its white and dark facade carries a broad rectangular block, above which a narrower tower rises to a circular, multi-tiered section with a small cupola. Black Devanagari lettering reading "बिस्कोमान भवन" and the Latin words "BISCOMAUN BHAWAN" are mounted on the upper part of the main block, with a low white fence and trees at its base.

Biscomaun Bhawan takes its name from BISCOMAUN, the Bihar State Cooperative Marketing Union Limited, whose headquarters it was built to house. The 18-storey block near Gandhi Maidan later took in offices of the Bihar government, the Government of India, private firms and Nalanda Open University. Its 16th floor holds a restaurant that turns slowly through 360 degrees.

The name Biscomaun stands for Bihar State Cooperative Marketing Union, the body the building serves. Visitors can ride to the 16th floor, where the Pind Balluchi restaurant turns slowly through 360 degrees, and the building also holds a software park and a Nalanda Open University office.

The building sits in central Patna and is easy to reach from the city's main areas. Since it functions as an active office building, visitors should arrange access in advance.

The 16th floor holds Pind Balluchi, a restaurant that turns slowly through 360 degrees; the Bihari Wikipedia entry notes a charge of 800 rupees per person for booking. The same tower also houses a software park, which the English Wikipedia describes as the only one in Bihar and Eastern India.
