Darshan Lal Sehdev<\/strong>, our company began as a modest casting unit in Batala, Punjab \u2014 a city known for its engineering heritage. Over the years, we evolved into one of India\u2019s respected machine tool manufacturers, producing&nbsp;<em><strong><a href=\"..\/..\/lathe-machine.html\">lathe machines<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, milling machines, VTLs, and complete workshop solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sh. Darshan Lal Sehdev\u2019s contribution to Indian industry was recognized with the&nbsp;<strong>Udyog Patra Award<\/strong>&nbsp;presented by the then Vice President of India,&nbsp;<strong>Sh. M.
