Alfa Transformer Ltd.

Being located at Plot No. 1046, 1047, and 1048 in the Waghodia Gidc Estate means we have a fair amount of ground to cover every day. It’s a big space here in Vadodara, and the Gujarat heat really makes itself known by midday. You walk across the three plots and you see a lot of heavy steel and transformer parts waiting for their turn. The floors are stained with some oil and there’s usually a bit of dust because of the industrial traffic nearby. We don’t spend much time in offices; most of the day is spent out where the actual building happens. There’s a constant sound of cranes or tools hitting metal, which is just the soundtrack of this place. We’ve got the address 391 760 stamped on our mail, but to us, it’s just the place where we spend ten hours a day. The guys here usually bring their own tiffins and we find a spot in the shade to eat. It’s not some high-tech glass building. It’s just a series of sheds and workspaces that have seen a lot of use over the years. We keep the equipment running and try to stay organized, even if the bins get full. People know us as the Alfa spot on the estate. It’s a simple setup for work that isn't always simple.
