Founder’s experience

The experience behind
our next chapter.

A professional legacy in marine engineering and technical supply — presented accurately as our founder’s historical experience, not Zarya’s corporate track record.

Founder & engineering leadership

Mr. G. C. Jaiswal

A seasoned marine engineering professional whose industry experience spans approximately four decades.

Mr. Jaiswal helped shape the work of Marine Engineering & Trade Services (METS), a company established in Port Blair in 1989, with an emphasis on ship repair, refit work and technical engineering assignments.

At Zarya, his experience serves as a foundation for evaluating opportunities, mentoring teams and building a multidisciplinary marine, supply and infrastructure enterprise.
