Shashank Engineers

We operate out of a small unit in Bhosari, specifically at 15/8. Shashank Engineers is basically a workshop where we handle a lot of metal work and fabrication. It’s loud because of the machines running, and there’s always that smell of cut steel and welding sparks in the air. We aren't a big factory with hundreds of people. It’s just a few of us who know how to handle the lathes and the drills. We take on jobs that come in from the bigger companies nearby or sometimes just small local repairs for people we know. The floor is concrete and usually covered in metal shavings that we have to sweep up at the end of every shift. We wear our old clothes because they’re going to get ruined with grease and heat anyway. There’s a small desk in the corner where we keep the drawings and the phone, but mostly we are out on the floor getting our hands busy. Sometimes the power goes out and we just have to sit and wait, which is frustrating when we have a deadline. We don't have a big marketing team or a fancy website. Most people find us by word of mouth or by just walking through the industrial area. It’s practical work. We make things, we fix things, and we try to make sure the measurements are right. It’s a simple life in the industrial belt.
