A family business that began in a small shop on G.T. Road and now supplies machine tools across India and abroad, still run from the same town by the same family.
Batala has built machine tools for the better part of a century. Our own roots here go back to 1950, when the family began making lathes in a small shop — a few machines at a time, sold to workshops in the surrounding districts.
Rajeev Aggarwal started in that shop alongside his father. What was a single premises and a handful of machines is now a business running multiple warehouses, a range covering twenty-five machine categories, and customers across India and in export markets.
That growth was not a single decision. It came from decades of adding one machine type at a time, learning each properly before taking on the next, and keeping the same buyers coming back for their second and third machine.
Began in the family's original shop working alongside his father, and built the business from those beginnings to what it is now. Four decades of knowing which machines are worth building, which suppliers are worth trusting, and which customers are worth keeping.
Runs the business end to end with his brother — sourcing, sales, exports and the introduction of new machine lines. Responsible for taking the business to new markets and new products.
Runs the business end to end with his brother, across operations, customer relationships and the growth of the machine range. Both brothers are directly involved in every order rather than sitting behind a sales team.
Two brothers running a business between them means the person who quotes your machine is the person who follows it through the works and answers the phone afterwards. There is no layer in between, and no order too small to get attention.
We publish real specifications rather than four numbers, we invite customers to Batala to see a machine running before it is dispatched, and every machine leaves with a written inspection and dispatch certificate.
The machine range has grown steadily and continues to. New lines are added when we are confident we can build or source them properly and support them afterwards — not because a category looked empty.
Alongside manufacturing, we import and supply machines that complement the range, inspecting each one before it goes out under our name.
Machines exported to Nepal, Bangladesh, Dubai and regions in Africa, with capacity to serve more markets.
