Procurement Portals

Tips for Maharashtra Tenders
- Register on mahatenders.gov.in with a Class-I or equivalent contractor registration from Maharashtra PWD
- BMC tenders often require Mumbai-specific experience — start with smaller ward-level contracts
- MMRDA metro contracts favour JVs with international partners for specialised works
- Keep track of Nagpur, Pune, and Nashik smart city SPVs — they procure independently from the state portal
