Ambika Engineering Works

If you're looking for us, we’re right by the water tank at Plot No. L-61 in the GIDC area. It’s a good landmark because everyone knows where the tank is. Ambika Engineering Works is basically a workshop where we handle a lot of mechanical tasks. We have some lathes and milling machines that have seen a lot of use, but they still run fine. The guys wear grease-stained clothes because that’s the reality of fixing and making parts. We don't have a receptionist or a lobby. You just walk in and talk to whoever isn't under a machine at the moment. It gets pretty loud when the drills are going, so we end up shouting to hear each other. We take on whatever engineering jobs come through the door. Sometimes it’s a small repair, other times it’s a bigger assembly. We try to be practical about how we solve problems. If something is broken, we look at it and figure out the quickest way to get it running again without costing a fortune. The GIDC is a busy place, and we fit right in with the other shops. We aren't fancy, and we don't pretend to be. We just like working with our hands and seeing a project get finished. It’s a decent way to make a living, and we’ve been at it for quite some time now.
