Typed, proofed, and ready to file — since 2004.
Affidavits, agreements, theses, and dictation — in English, Marathi and Hindi. Twenty-two years beside the Nashik District Court, where a wrong digit in a survey number is not a typo, it's a dispute.
Certified speeds, three languages
Speed gets the queue moving. The second proofread is what you're really paying for.

From a Godrej typewriter to this website
I learnt on a Godrej Prima at Modern Typing Institute, Nashik, in 2002 — the kind of machine where a mistake meant retyping the whole page. That machine taught me the habit that runs my business: get it right the first time, then check it anyway.
Since 2004 I've sat within two hundred metres of the District Court gate. Advocates send juniors with drafts, families come with property papers they don't fully understand, students come at 11 PM before submission day. Everyone leaves with a document they can sign without fear.
A typist's real job is not speed. It is being the last person who reads the document carefully before it becomes official.
How your document gets done
Bring it, send it, or say it
Handwritten draft, old photocopy, WhatsApp photo, or dictation across the desk — all accepted. I'll tell you the page count and price before starting.
Names and numbers, read back
Every name spelling, survey number, amount and date is read back to you aloud. This step has caught more mistakes than any spell-checker.
Typed, then proofed twice
Once on screen, once on the printed page. Corrections marked in red on the draft copy so you can see what changed.
Printed, filed, and kept
You get prints plus the file on your WhatsApp or pen drive. I keep a copy for one year — people lose papers; I don't.
Record of service
Experience
Proprietor, typing & documentation services
Independent practice serving advocates, families, students and small businesses. Two juniors trained here now run their own shops.
Typist
Learnt legal formats, court etiquette, and that "urgent" at a court means twenty minutes.
Education & certificates
GCC-TBC Typing Certificates
English 60 WPM, Marathi 40 WPM, Hindi 30 WPM — on manual machines.
H.S.C. (Commerce)
Followed by MS-CIT in 2005 when the shop moved from typewriter to computer.
Devanagari computer typing (ISM)
So government portals and Unicode documents come out right, not as boxes.
Word around Court Lane
Twenty years, hundreds of affidavits. Rekha tai has caught mistakes in my own drafts — politely, before the client noticed.
My thesis — 212 pages, handwritten — typed and formatted in nine days. She phoned me twice to confirm chemical names she wasn't sure of.
We came with our late father's property papers, half torn. She retyped everything, explained each document, and charged exactly the board rate.
Notes from behind the desk
Why I read your document back to you aloud
The read-back has caught wrong survey numbers, swapped names in sale deeds, and one wedding date. A ritual worth two minutes.
What to bring when typing property papers
The five documents to carry so we don't stop midway — and which photocopies the court will actually accept.
Thesis season: a survival timetable
Submit chapters as your guide clears them, not all together in March. A schedule that has saved many final years.
Send it, or walk in
WhatsApp a photo of the draft for a page count and price. Or walk in — the shop is the one with the old Godrej typewriter in the window.
