More than half a century ago, a young 18 year boy Chunilal Kapashi left for Africa from Chuda village, Gujarat in Western India, leaving behind his son Shantilal Kapashi. Shantilal Kapashi was barely 10 when he moved to Mumbai to earn a living and worked as a tea stall boy outside the Mumbai Stock Exchange. Proximity to the bulls in stocks and a natural entrepreneurial instinct drew him in to speculative trading which had its ups and downs. He would visit a garage to sort out problems with his car. That garage was located near Ruby Mills which was incurring huge losses. Shantilal Kapashi ultimately bought Ruby Mills and with some technical assistance started building wooden coaches paving the way for the firm that was nurtured and developed by his three sons Dhirajlal, Sevantilal, Indubhai. Pankaj Kapashi, the Managing Director of Ruby Bus Pvt. Ltd. is the third generation to run and expand the business.

The buses made by Ruby Bus are well known in all regions of India and in more than 30 countries of the world. They are characterized by remunerative price, simplicity and reliability. They are unpretentious in service. The buses are suitable for different types of roads, bad conditions of road, for severe cold and hot tropical climate as well. We are constantly innovating and improving the bus design and updating the technology used. We design the buses to give maximum benefits to the owners and customize the buses to meet their specific requirements. We also design and produce innovative commercial buses to meet vigorous shuttle service demands. Even today, our school buses take more students to school than all other manufacturers combined. Specifically designed special-application buses help fulfil the versatile requirements of the modern market trends is also our area of expertise.
The bare chassis is inducted into the workshop and the flooring, composed of rolled channels, is mounted on the vehicles by U bolts. The side structure and the roof structure consisting of carefully-engineered steel pressed sections of different thicknesses with strongly gusseted joints and preassembled on jigs and fixtures are mounted on to the vehicles forming sturdy steel "fortress" around the passengers. The strength of this construction ensures the greater life span of the vehicle. Each and every structural component is carefully phosphated using the ten tank process recommended by ICI and three coats of anti-rust paint are then applied to prevent corrosion. Once the structure is assembled together the entire structure is given another coat of anti-rust paint before the panelling work begins. The flooring is made either of aluminium, chequered plate or marine plywood covered with vinyl material. The side panels may be of either plastic coated aluminium sheets or plush upholstery fabric and the exterior roof is made of aluminium panel riveted on to the steel superstructure. Before the fitment of interior roof panels, the vehicle is water tested under a shower of water resembling artificially simulated weather condition, in order to check for leakages before the fitment of the roof panels.
The doors and other fitments are fitted on to the vehicles, then the vehicle proceeds for painting process. The painting process consists of one coat of each primer, 4 coats of primer surface and 3 coats of finished paints. All vehicles are spray painted in a pressurized paint booth and baked to a temperature of 70 degrees in oven. The windows and other retro-fits are fitted on to the vehicles. Before delivery the vehicle is again water tested to check for water leakage into the vehicle. Stringent quality control checks are carried out before the final dispatch of the vehicle, so that the vehicle leaves the workshop premises in the best condition. Ruby Bus offers a complete range of seats ranging from those required in a standard city bus to fully reclining seats in a choice of attractive colours. Seats are constructed in Ruby Bus's own factory to ensure total quality control. Road testing is carried out to ensure that the vibrations and noise within the vehicle are non- existent. The entire cycle for the production of one complete vehicle ranges from approximately 3 to 4 weeks for a standard bus to 6 to 8 weeks for luxury bus and 8 to 10 weeks for an aircondition bus. All our products are totally indigenously developed which makes our services more cost effective as we have a better insight into the prevailing conditions.
MINI BUSES The external profile of the Mini Bus has some special elements, namely a large windscreen glass and a window glass area to provide better visibility for both the driver and the passengers. The inside finishing is of an extremely high quality and provides full comfort for long journeys as well as short road trips.
