The '''Public Utility Building''' (also known as '''Subhash Chandra Bose Public Utility Building''') is a [[skyscraper]] on [[M G Road, Bangalore|Mahatma Gandhi Road]], [[Bangalore]], [[India]]. It is one of the tallest buildings and a major commercial center of Bangalore, housing a variety of businesses and commercial centers including offices, shops, boutiques, hotel, restaurants, and a cinema hall. Built in the 1970s by the Bangalore City Corporation, it has 25 stories and stands {{convert|106|m}} tall. The architect of the building was Atul Sharma and the structural engineer was Kamal N Hadkar.<!-- Nair erroneously states it is a 24-story building, while in reality it has 25 stories when including the ground floor. The confusion arises from India using a 'Ground + X'-type floor numbering system. The year of completion is not specified since both the sources differ wildly - Bangalore Mirror says 1970, and Nair says 1973 and 1978 in different parts of her book. --><ref>{{cite news | url=https://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/bangalore/others/Top-two-floors-of-Utility-Building-crumbling/articleshow/32563256.cms | title=Top two floors of Utility Building crumbling | date=24 March 2014 | newspaper=Bangalore Mirror | first1=Atul | last1=Chaturvedi | first2=Nischith | last2=N | access-date=3 January 2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Nair |first=Janaki |title=The Promise of the Metropolis |publisher=[[Oxford University Press]] |year=2005 |isbn=9780195690446 |location=New Delhi}}</ref><br />
