Kirpal Singh & Sons Machine Tools (India)

Kirpal Singh & Sons Machine Tools (India) has been operating out of Janta Nagar in Ludhiana for many years now. Our address is 10457 St No 5/3. It’s a pretty tight street, and things get very crowded when the delivery trucks are coming and going. Ludhiana is full of shops like ours, but we just stick to our corner and do our thing. We focus on machine tools mostly. My brothers and I, along with some of the older staff who are like family, we’ve seen a lot of changes in the industry over the years. We started small and stayed pretty grounded. You come in, you see the lathes and the drills, and that’s about all there is. There’s always that sharp smell of cutting oil in the air. We don't spend any money on fancy advertisements or billboards. Most people find us because they know someone who bought a machine from us a decade ago. It’s a family-run setup, so things are a bit informal compared to big companies. If someone’s late, they just work a bit later. If a machine has a glitch during testing, we all huddle around to fix it. We don't have a big HR department or any of that. We just talk to each other and solve the problems. Janta Nagar is a busy place, and we are just one small part of it. We keep the machines running and try to make sure everything is right for those who need it.
