Industrial Spares India

If you come down to 166 in Block B-2 of Ranjit Nagar, you will find us tucked away. It’s a residential-commercial mix around here, so things feel a bit cramped. Industrial Spares India is mostly just shelves and more shelves filled with parts. Sometimes it feels like we are drowning in small metal pieces and boxes. We know where everything is, though, even if it looks like a mess to someone walking in for the first time. It gets dusty because of the road work that always seems to be happening nearby. We started this because there was a need for these specific spares in the local workshops. We don’t have a big showroom. Most of the time, we are just sitting at the counter waiting for a mechanic or a factory runner to come in with a broken part looking for a replacement. It’s quiet on some mornings and then suddenly three people show up at once. That is just how it goes. The lighting inside isn't the best, so we use a lot of flashlights to find the serial numbers on the back of the racks. It’s not a glamorous job, but these machines need their parts to keep running. We drink a lot of chai and talk about how the neighborhood has changed over the last ten years. We aren't doing anything revolutionary, just supplying what is asked for. It’s a living and we’re used to the routine by now.
