Shanti Rath, Moksh Rath & Shav Vahini — Built in Jasdan Since 1994
A Shanti Rath — also called moksh rath, antim rath, shav vahini, or moksh vahini — is a specially fabricated funeral vehicle trailer designed for dignified final journeys. At Jay Khodiyar Welding Works in Sanathali, Jasdan (Rajkot district, Gujarat), we have been building these vehicles by hand since 1994, serving gram trusts, mandir trusts, antyesti samitis, nagarpalikas, NGOs, and charitable institutions across the state and country.
Our standard Shanti Rath measures 14.5 ft overall length, 6 ft body width, and 8.75 ft height on a heavy-gauge metal chassis engineered for 10–15 years of active service on Indian roads. Every unit includes copper-finished railings, hand-painted religious lettering, decorative brasswork, LED lighting, seating planks, and a secure asthi kalash space — with full customisation of dimensions, motifs, and finish to match your trust's requirements.
We also build decorative gurudwara and temple moksh vahini units, shav vahini modifications on Tempo Traveller chassis, and indirect ash van configurations. Whether you need a single vehicle for a village trust or a fleet for a municipality, we deliver across Gujarat and all India with direct workshop support — no middlemen, no catalogue stock.
