Lakshmi Auto Spares

Lakshmi Auto Spares is located at shop 69 in Rajindra Market. If you’ve ever been to Tis Hazari, you know how crowded it gets with all the shops and people moving around. We’ve been here for quite some time now, surrounded by stacks of parts and the smell of engine oil. Most days start with me trying to find a specific bolt or a gasket for a customer who’s in a hurry. The shelves are pretty full, and honestly, sometimes it’s hard to remember exactly where everything went last week. We deal with mechanics and regular car owners who just need something fixed quickly. It gets dusty inside because of all the traffic outside, but we try to keep things organized enough to work. My brother and I manage most of the daily stuff. We don’t have a fancy website or a marketing team. We just open the shop, talk to the people who come in, and try to get them the right part. It’s a lot of manual work, lifting heavy boxes and checking lists. Lunch is usually eaten standing up or sitting on a spare crate. That’s just the way life is in this market. We’ve been in this spot so long the walls have turned a different color from the fumes and the age. It’s a noisy life but it’s ours. We usually lock up around seven in the evening.
