"Every boat on Sukhna Lake was ideated, designed, manufactured and built at Plot 65. That was true in 1956. It is still true today."
Sukhna Lake, Chandigarh

The boats that have always graced Chandigarh's beloved Sukhna Lake did not come from a catalogue or a distant factory. They were designed and built at this workshop, by hand, to order, with the care that only a family business with seven decades of practice can bring. That is not a claim. It is a record.

02 · The City

Le Corbusier's Grid.
Our Foundation.

Chandigarh was built to a standard. A city conceived on a modular grid, shaped by Le Corbusier's vision of what a modern Indian city could be — ordered, purposeful, and deeply human. What made it remarkable was not just the plan on paper. It was the decision to build it entirely with local hands, local materials, and local craft. The furniture in the Capitol's public buildings was made by Indian carpenters. The ethos was clear: make it here, and make it right.

Industrial Area Phase 1 was essential to that vision. When Bhagwan Singh was allocated Plot 65 in 1956, the Capitol Complex was still under construction. He was not arriving late. He was part of the original fabric of the city. A craftsman in a city that believed in craftsmanship. That alignment has never changed.

"A city is not just its monuments. It is the workshops behind them and the hands that keep it running."
Capitol Complex
Palace of Assembly
Corbusier's most theatrical gesture — a rooftop vault, dramatic concrete portico, and pillars that cast long moving shadows through the Punjab day.
Capitol Complex
High Court of Punjab & Haryana
Defined by its brise-soleil sun-shading. Massive béton brut pillars of monumental scale. UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Capitol Complex
Open Hand Monument
A rotating metal hand, 26 metres tall, representing peace and reconciliation for a post-Partition Punjab. Chandigarh's enduring symbol.
Industrial Area Phase I · Est. 1956
Plot 65 · Our Address
Not listed. Not celebrated. But part of the same master plan — the working, human fabric that Corbusier knew any living city must have. Here since 1956.

Of the original small manufacturers allocated plots in Phase 1, fewer than ten remain active today. Bhagwan Singh & Sons is one of them.

That is not nostalgia. That is continuity — the kind no heritage plaque can replace. A living business on an original plot is a more honest monument than any restored facade.

03 · Our Legacy

Three Generations.
One Address.

Chandigarh was built with intention. A city conceived from a blank canvas, planned on a modular grid, constructed by Indian hands, from Indian materials, with Indian craft at its core. Le Corbusier designed the blueprint. But it was the workshops, the carpenters, the makers of Punjab who gave it life. The city that emerged was not just architecture. It was a statement of what skilled hands can build when given the space to do so.

Bhagwan Singh understood that instinct deeply. When he established Plot 65, Industrial Area Phase 1 in 1956, the Capitol Complex was still rising around him. He was not following a market. He was helping create one. The same commitment to craft that shaped Chandigarh's buildings shaped every boat, every product that left this workshop. Made here. Made well. Made to last.

"Three generations of craft and now a fourth. The city grew around us. The standard never moved."

Prem Singh carried that standard through the 1970s and 80s, guiding the transition from wooden to aluminium hulls as Punjab's waterways and tourism grew. Charanjit Singh built on that foundation, expanding the workshop into three product categories and a national customer base. Now Inderpreet Singh brings the fourth generation home, with global hospitality experience and a passion for craft-led events, leading the Wedding Décor & Events division with the same hands-on dedication that has defined this family since 1956.
