Darshan Engineering Works

Our workshop is located at Plot No. 27 in the CIDCO Service Industry Zone, which is right across from the API Gate. If you know the area, you know it is always busy with trucks and workers moving back and forth at all hours. The noise of the machinery and the constant hum of traffic outside is something we don't even notice anymore. It is a gritty sort of place, with oil stains on the floor and metal scraps tucked into the corners, but that is how a real engineering works ought to look. We don't have a polished reception area or fancy chairs for people to sit in. Usually, if someone comes by, they just stand near the main door and talk to us while we work. The air is always thick with the smell of grease and burnt metal, which is a smell we’ve grown to like over the years. We have a small crew of guys who have been here forever, and we mostly just get on with things without needing to say much. When the rain comes down hard, the sound on the metal roof is so loud you can’t hear yourself think, so we just work in silence until it passes. We keep a small stove in the back for making tea, which is pretty much the fuel that keeps this place running. It is a simple, honest way to make a living, and we are happy to be part of the local industrial community here.
