Our Company is currently operating in India through its office located
in Surat, Gujarat.
Our Company provides on a contract, lease, hire and rental basis, a
large and sophisticated fleet of earthmoving equipment such as excavators, dozers, backhoe

personnel for operating such machineries. Our Company also offers comprehensive repair and
maintenance for such machineries with our own team of mechanics, alongside consultancy,
support, and technical services. Our Company also specializes in expansion and fabrication
projects for a wide range of industrial facilities, including factories and refinery
plants. Beyond such major undertakings, we also provide comprehensive mechanical works
ranging from welding services to manpower supply. We also provide other materials for the
civil works including equipment, steel, cement, etc. as per the needs of the customers.
