Rajkot Forging Supplier Serving Chennai's Auto & Industrial Belt
Shivam Forge supplies precision automotive and industrial hot forgings to Chennai's Oragadam and Sriperumbudur auto hubs — Hyundai, BMW, Renault-Nissan, Ashok Leyland, TVS, Royal Enfield — from our Shapar GIDC facility in Rajkot. Railway and road freight via Chennai port for export. Competitive pricing versus Coimbatore or local Tamil Nadu vendors. ISO 9001:2015. Call +91 92657 72827.
Chennai and its surrounding automotive corridor — Oragadam, Sriperumbudur, Irungattukottai — is India's second-largest automotive manufacturing cluster after Pune-Mumbai. The density of passenger car OEMs, two-wheeler manufacturers, commercial vehicle plants and Tier 1 automotive suppliers makes this region one of India's most significant forging demand centres. Shivam Forge, operating for 20+ years in Rajkot's precision forging cluster, delivers automotive-grade closed-die forgings to Chennai's automotive and industrial base via railway freight in 48 hours and road freight in 2 days at pricing that outcompetes local Tamil Nadu and Coimbatore forging vendors.

Rajkot's Shapar GIDC forging cluster offers lower manufacturing costs than equivalent Tamil Nadu locations. Shivam Forge's pricing is consistently competitive versus Coimbatore, Hosur and Chennai-local forging vendors, with the rail freight cost more than offset by the manufacturing price difference on most part types.
Indian Railways operates covered wagon freight from Rajkot to Chennai in approximately 48 hours. This reliable, low-cost transit mode makes Shivam Forge operationally viable for Chennai auto component manufacturers with weekly or fortnightly delivery schedules. We work with established freight forwarding agents on the Rajkot–Chennai rail route.
Our quality management system is aligned to automotive quality requirements. We provide PPAP-compatible documentation — dimensional inspection reports, material test reports, process flow diagrams, control plans and heat treatment records — for new part qualification at Chennai OEM and Tier 1 customers.
Two decades of supplying forged crankshafts, connecting rods, gear blanks and structural components to India's automotive sector means Shivam Forge understands the dimensional control, grain flow direction, heat treatment sequence and documentation disciplines that automotive quality systems require.
Our ISO 9001:2015 certification underpins systematic dimensional inspection, material traceability, non-conformance management and continuous improvement. Chennai Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers can audit our facility and quality system as part of their supplier qualification process.
With over 500 active OEM and Tier 1 clients across India's automotive, heavy engineering and industrial sectors, Shivam Forge has the supplier stability, production capacity and financial health that Chennai's demanding automotive supply chain needs from a critical component supplier.
Shivam Forge is a precision hot forging manufacturer based at Shapar GIDC, Rajkot, Gujarat, supplying automotive and industrial forgings to Chennai's Oragadam and Sriperumbudur automotive corridor, SIDCO industrial estates and Chennai port export trade. Chennai has grown into India's second-largest automotive manufacturing cluster, with Hyundai, Renault-Nissan, BMW, Ashok Leyland, TVS Motor and Royal Enfield all operating major production facilities within 50 km of the city. The dense ecosystem of Tier 1 and Tier 2 auto component suppliers that serves these OEMs creates sustained, high-volume demand for precision closed-die automotive forgings — exactly the product Shivam Forge has specialised in for over 20 years.
The logistics from Rajkot to Chennai are well-established and commercially viable. Indian Railways covered wagon freight covers the approximately 1,400 km route in 48 hours at freight costs substantially below road for bulk consignments above 3–5 tonnes. Chennai auto component manufacturers with weekly fortnightly forging delivery schedules find rail freight from Rajkot operationally reliable and cost-effective. For smaller or urgent shipments, road freight covers the distance in approximately 2 days. Shivam Forge works with established freight forwarding agents on the Rajkot–Chennai corridor and can arrange door delivery to plant or warehouse.
Our automotive forging range for Chennai's supply chain includes crankshaft and connecting rod forgings in AISI 1045 and SAE 4340, gear and pinion forgings in EN19 and AISI 8620, axle shaft and hub forgings in AISI 4140, steering knuckle and suspension forgings, engine bracket forgings and high-volume two-wheeler crankshaft blanks. We provide PPAP-compatible documentation packages for OEM and Tier 1 supplier qualification, including CMM dimensional reports, material test reports, process flow diagrams and heat treatment records. Our quality management system is ISO 9001:2015 certified and is aligned to automotive quality management requirements.
The commercial case for Chennai auto component manufacturers to source forgings from Shivam Forge versus local Tamil Nadu or Coimbatore vendors is primarily about manufacturing cost. Rajkot's Shapar GIDC has structurally lower land, labour and utility costs than Tamil Nadu industrial zones. Even after Rajkot–Chennai freight cost is added, Shivam Forge pricing is typically competitive with local vendors on most standard automotive forging types, and substantially better on complex, alloy-steel closed-die parts where Rajkot's deep forging cluster supply chain advantage compounds further.
Chennai exporters and trading companies also benefit from sourcing forgings from Shivam Forge for export through Chennai Port and Ennore Port. We prepare complete export documentation and can coordinate container freight from our Rajkot facility to Chennai port with full export clearance.
