Gujarat Lathe Mfg. Co. P.L.

If you find yourself on LBS Marg in Vikhroli West, you might pass by Karma Stambh. That’s where Gujarat Lathe Mfg. Co. P.L. is based, specifically in units 201 and 202. Vikhroli is a real working-class part of Mumbai, and it feels like it. There’s always the sound of metal and machinery somewhere in the background. We make lathes, which are heavy pieces of equipment, so our space isn't like one of those modern glass offices you see in the city center. It’s a bit gritty and there’s usually some grease on someone's hands. We’ve been here at this address doing our thing for quite a while now. The building is sturdy, which is good because the stuff we handle isn't light. Working on LBS Marg means dealing with a lot of noise and traffic, but that’s just part of the deal. We don't spend much time thinking about branding or anything like that. We just focus on the machines and making sure everything is built right. It’s a small team here and everyone knows their job. We aren't interested in sounding corporate or fancy. If you come by, you’ll see us in our work clothes just getting through the pile of orders we have. Gujarat Lathe Mfg. Co. P.L. is a straightforward place for straightforward work. We like the honesty of making things with our hands and seeing the finished product leave the floor. It is just a regular workshop doing regular work every day.
