Om Forging & Engineering (P) Ltd., Mumbai

Even though our name mentions Mumbai, you will find our office for Om Forging & Engineering (P) Ltd. at 28 Strand Road on the second floor in Kolkata. Being near the river means there is always a bit of a breeze, but the traffic on Strand Road is no joke. The building is an old one, with those high ceilings and thick walls that you see in the 700001 zip code area. We handle a lot of technical details related to forging and engineering from this office. It’s mostly desks, computers, and a lot of blueprints rolled up in the corners. We spend a lot of time coordinating between the production side and the clients. The office isn't particularly modern, but it works for us. We have a tea guy who comes by twice a day, and that’s usually when we take a break from the spreadsheets. Sometimes the stairs feel a bit steep at the end of a long day. We deal with a lot of numbers and specifications, making sure the metalwork we oversee is done to the right standards. It’s a lot of back-and-forth communication. We aren't big on flashy decor or corporate talk. We just show up, do the engineering checks, and manage the logistics. It’s a practical way to run things. The Kolkata weather can be a bit much, but we have our fans and our work to keep us occupied. It keeps us going.
