No corrigendum / addendum found

The tender document set contains no corrigendum or addendum files; all values are as printed in the original SBD and accompanying NIT documents.

Documents present: 01-SBD Kholvad.pdf, 02-Schedule-B.pdf, 03-Itemwise Sepcification.pdf, 04-Makelist.pdf, 05-Special condition.pdf, 06-Drawing.pdf.
Final applicable key dates/amounts are those in the original SBD memorandum and IFB (see keyDates/keyFinancials).

Contradictions

Genuine conflicts within and across the documents (original vs corrigenda, clause vs annexure, tender document vs BOQ): both sides with citations, and which value prevails.

Physical EMD/Fee original deadline: calendar window vs 7-day rule

Memorandum sets physical submission 01/09/2026–08/09/2026, while IFB requires originals within 7 days of last bid submission day (implying by 07/09/2026).

Online bid ends 31/08/2026; 7 days later is 07/09/2026.
Memorandum allows through 08/09/2026 up to 18:00 by RPAD/Speed Post.
Bidders should assume the stricter/earlier compliance path unless clarified in pre-bid, and ensure RPAD delivery within both formulations.

GST extra vs SCC ‘all taxes borne by contractor’

SBD/ITB/GCC state GST is paid extra by Employer, but Special Conditions say all taxes are borne by contractor with no reimbursement.

ITB 13.3 and GCC 43.2/45.2: rates exclude GST; Employer pays GST on bills.
SCC: ‘All taxes bears by contractor. No. reimbursement should be given.’
Prevailing SBD payment clauses are more specific on GST; seek written clarification because SCC could be read to override.

Free maintenance duration: 36 months vs Schedule-B garden item 24/12 months

SBD/SCC prescribe 36-month free maintenance guarantee, while Schedule-B item 402 describes 24-month garden maintenance with quantity 12 months.

Memorandum/GCC: free maintenance guarantee 36 months; 5% of each bill withheld till then.
SCC: Maintenance/Repairing for entire premises for 3 years.
Schedule-B Sr. 402: quantity 12.00 Month but text says ‘Maintenance period shall be 24 months’ for campus/garden.
Clarify whether garden BOQ item is additional paid maintenance distinct from the free 36-month guarantee, and correct quantity/period.

Key personnel requirements differ between ITB appendix and SCC

ITB minimum staffing for >Rs 50 lakh works is 2 graduate + 3 diploma civil engineers, while SCC mandates a much larger high-rise project team.

SCC requires e.g. 3 Project Engineers (15 yrs high-rise), 1 Site Engineer per building (5 yrs), 6 QA engineers, 6 computer operators, plus resident Senior Engineer — substantially higher than ITB list.
Bidders should price and plan for the stricter SCC staffing, and confirm if ITB recovery rate Rs 15,000/month/engineer still applies.

Pre-bid queries

Only critical, tender-specific pre-bid queries that could materially change bid/no-bid, pricing, eligibility or contractual risk. Skip generic or obvious questions the documents already answer clearly.

Confirm physical original receipt deadline

Please confirm whether original Tender Fee DD and EMD FDR/BG must reach by 07/09/2026 (7-day rule) or are acceptable through 08/09/2026 18:00 as in the Memorandum.

Also confirm if only RPAD/Speed Post is accepted (no hand delivery/courier) and exact receiving office desk.

GST treatment under SCC vs SBD

Confirm that quoted rates exclude GST and Employer will pay GST extra, notwithstanding SCC wording that contractor bears all taxes without reimbursement.

Material to price loading and cash-flow; request written addendum language.

Dual experience criteria (G+8 / 25 m and G+3 value tests)

Confirm both the G.F+8/25 m gate and the G.F+3 value-based similar-work tests are mandatory concurrently, and how they apply to JV lead/other partners (50%/30% splits on which paras).

Cl. 4.6 refers percentage splits on para 4.5.3 & 4.5.6 — clarify whether G+8 height gate is applied to lead only or JV collectively.

Phase-wise work order / demand-survey contingency

SCC allows phase-wise work orders based on demand survey and land availability and even rejection if not feasible — please define minimum guaranteed scope, payment for idle mobilisation, and foreclosure rights.

Cross-ref GCC site possession foreclosure if 80% site not handed over within 25% of time limit.

Maintenance period and BOQ item 402 consistency

Please reconcile free maintenance guarantee (36 months), SCC 3-year premises maintenance, and Schedule-B item 402 (24 months text / 12 month qty).

Also confirm Rs 0.30 lakh/month staff non-deployment deduction source (deposit vs bills) and interaction with 5% maintenance withhold.

Blank Appendix financial thresholds and pre-bid logistics

Appendix to ITB leaves Annual Financial Turnover Amount, liquid assets figure and pre-bid meeting place fields incomplete — please publish filled values and exact pre-bid venue/contact email.

Turnover/liquid assets are otherwise stated as 30% and 25% percentages; confirm computed rupee amounts against Rs 1,19,08,19,459.29.

Risks

Commercial, legal and execution risks a bidder should weigh: liquidated damages and penalties, unusual or one-sided clauses, tight timelines, and payment or security risks.

Heavy liquidated damages and milestone exposure

LD at 1/2000 of initial contract price per day (rounded to nearest thousand), capped at 10% of initial contract price, applies to whole work and milestones.

Delay to maximum LD days is a fundamental breach enabling termination.
36-month programme including monsoon with aggressive early milestones (25% work in 10% time) is tight for G+13/14 mass housing.

Long DLP, retention stack and cash lock-up

10-year structural/waterproofing DLP, 5% PS beyond DLP+60 days, 5% bill retention/maintenance withhold and 15% waterproofing bond create prolonged capital lock-up.

Free maintenance 36 months with mandatory post-completion staff or Rs 0.30 lakh/month deduction.
Additional PS for low bids further increases security burden.

Scope / possession contingency and employer termination convenience

Phase-wise ordering based on demand/land and employer right to terminate for convenience create award and execution uncertainty.

If 80% site not handed over within 25% of time, either party may foreclose within a 30-day window.
On contractor default termination, employer may complete works and charge 20% of value of work not completed as additional cost.
Employer may accept/reject any bid and cancel process without liability (ITB 32).

QA, testing and compliance cost risk on contractor

Extensive NABL/GERI/SVNIT testing, site lab, third-party inspections, pollution controls and statutory clearances are contractor-cost with no extra payment.

Minimum 10% tests in GERI; failed material removal in one week at own cost.
Royalty charges not reimbursed; BOCW cess up to/at 1% deducted.
Contractor assists BU/local body/environmental/fire approvals — delay risk outside pure construction control.
Electrical works only via R&B-registered electrical contractor.

Negotiation non-response and bid-security forfeiture

Employer may call negotiation up to three times within validity; non-response leads to EMD forfeiture, tender rejection and punitive action.

Also forfeiture for post-opening withdrawal, non-acceptance of corrections, or failure to sign agreement/furnish PS within timelines (PS in 10 days; agreement signing within 21 days of receipt / agreement process within 28 days of award notification).

Unbalanced bid and L1 reversal on final quantities

Seriously unbalanced/low item rates may trigger higher PS or non-responsive rejection; final excesses/savings can reverse L1 ranking and cap payment to lowest evaluated amount on final quantities.

GCC 57.2 allows restricting final BOQ payment if L1 becomes L2 on final quantities.
