Sharika Enterprises Excels in High-Stakes Power Infra Projects

25 Apr 2025 CW Team

Sharika Enterprises Limited has once again proven its mettle as a trusted name in India’s power infrastructure sector. With a history of delivering complex, mission-critical projects under challenging conditions, the company continues to uphold its legacy of precision, performance, and reliability.

Sharika’s track record includes the successful repair and upgrade of the State Guest House Substation in 2018, which has since operated without interruption for over six years. This long-term operational success stands as a testament to Sharika’s engineering capability and robust delivery standards.

Further solidifying its position, the company recently completed a technically demanding repair project at the Bapu Dham Substation, operated by the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC). The project involved rectifying SF gas leakage in a 66kV Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) — one of the most complex challenges in high-voltage power infrastructure.

Mr Rajinder Kaul, Chairman & Managing Director of Sharika Enterprises, remarked: “This is not the first time our team has delivered under challenging circumstances. Our continued success is a testament to the engineering integrity, reliability, and durability that we bring to every project. Consistency in performance, especially under pressure, defines the real strength of our organisation.”

Sharika’s engineers not only completed the high-risk GIS repair, but also carried out extensive testing and diagnostics on three strategically important substations:

Bapu Dham – 7 bays

State Guest House – 7 bays

B.D. Marg – 5 bays

Although the work was initially estimated to take 22–23 days, Sharika’s team completed the entire process in just 16–17 days, thanks to their strong technical expertise, flawless coordination, and unwavering commitment to deadlines.
