Latest deadline: 07.08.2026 up to 3.00 PM, online.
Latest technical/pre-qualification bid opening: 07.08.2026 from 3.30 PM onward.

Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Rs.583.00 Lakhs, including GST at 18%.

Bid rates are quoted excluding GST; GST is calculated at 18%, subject to GST Council changes. The PQ says price adjustment applies to cement, steel, bitumen and POL for contracts up to 18 months, but the BOQ states price adjustment is not applicable; bidder should obtain a written ruling before pricing.
Every pass/fail eligibility and qualification requirement: experience and past performance, turnover/net worth, registrations and certifications, consortium/JV rules, and debarment or blacklisting conditions.
Bidder must be a Tamil Nadu PWD Class II or above State-level contractor (revised classification), monetary limit above Rs.5.00 crores and up to Rs.10.00 crores, with a live certificate and proven track record; it must have operated in the same name and style in civil engineering for at least five years.
Qualifying route shown in Schedule D-2: either one similar building work of at least Rs.291.50 Lakhs including GST in one agreement, or two similar building works each at least Rs.145.75 Lakhs including GST, completed in any one of the preceding five years.
Annual financial turnover must be at least Rs.1049.40 Lakhs including GST in any one of the preceding five years; issued/called-up share capital plus capital reserves must be at least Rs.116.60 Lakhs including GST.

Submit Income Tax Saral for IT years 2020-2021 through 2024-2025, GST registration, recent GST returns for the past three months, latest GSTR-3B and GST clearance/verification evidence.
No contract may have been terminated/rescinded for the bidder's breach during the past five years, and completed work must carry no negative remarks concerning repair/reconstruction costs during contract and five-year liability periods.
Exclusively provide one B.E. Civil Project Manager with at least 10 years' similar-work experience, two B.E. Civil site engineers with at least five years, and three Civil diploma site engineers with at least three years.
Own or lease, exclusively for the work: four hopper concrete mixers, three vibrators, two dewatering pumps, two lorries/tippers, 2,500 sq.m steel centering, three mechanical curing spray sets, two mechanical hoists, and one Poclain or JCB.
Joint-venture applications are not accepted. Qualification is evaluated pass/fail against all stated criteria, and deviations from contractual terms/specifications make the bid non-responsive.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Construct the Social Justice Hostel (College Boys) at Jeyankondam, Ariyalur District, as a framed Ground+3-floor structure.
Total stated plinth area is 1,591.00 sq.m: ground floor 455.00, first 363.00, second 363.00, third 363.00, head room 27.00 and portico 20.00 sq.m.
Item-rate BOQ comprises 94 work items plus a GST line, covering site/foundation earthwork, concrete/RCC and reinforcement, masonry and finishes, doors/windows, plumbing and sanitary installations, water-treatment/RO systems, fire extinguishers/buckets and associated external/site works.
Complete within ten calendar months, inclusive of monsoon, from site handover; prescribed cumulative progress runs from 15% in month 1 to 100% in month 10.
Work is governed by Tamil Nadu Building Practice, contract specifications and departmental directions. Government disclaims responsibility for BOQ completeness/correctness and may alter quantities by omissions, deductions or additions.
The complete checklist of documents to submit — mandatory vs conditional, with any prescribed formats, proformas or annexures — plus how to submit: portal and mode, envelope/cover structure, digital signature requirements, signing and attestation rules, and physical originals with their deadline.
Submit online only at https://tntenders.gov.in under a two-cover system: qualification/technical documents in Cover I and the BOQ in the financial cover. No postal or routine physical submission is accepted.
Register an authorised-certifier e-token, digitally sign uploaded documents with the bidder's token, convert technical documents to PDF, keep each upload below 2 MB (zip permitted), and upload the BOQ as the downloaded .xls file.
Individual/proprietor signs personally; partnerships require all partners or an authorised partner; companies/corporations require a duly authorised signatory. All evidence pages must be serially numbered and indexed. Notarisation/attestation applies where expressly stated below.
No scheduled physical-original submission deadline is stated. Originals of documentary evidence must be produced only if requested for verification.
Every corrigendum/addendum in order — what changed (original vs amended value), its impact, and the action for the bidder — ending with the values that finally apply.
Corrigendum dated 23.07.2026 extends online submission from 04.08.2026 at 3.00 PM to 07.08.2026 at 3.00 PM, and opening from 05.08.2026 at 3.30 PM to 07.08.2026 at 3.30 PM onward.
Submission: 07.08.2026 up to 3.00 PM; technical opening: 07.08.2026 from 3.30 PM; clarification cutoff: 04.08.2026 at 3.00 PM; no amount, eligibility, scope or contract-condition amendment is stated in Corrigendum 1.
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.
Original notice/PQ show submission 04.08.2026 and opening 05.08.2026; Corrigendum 1 replaces both with 07.08.2026 at 3.00 PM and 3.30 PM respectively. Corrigendum values prevail.
PQ says contracts up to 18 months receive adjustment for cement, steel, bitumen and POL, while the tender-specific BOQ says price adjustment is not applicable. The BOQ is the specific price schedule, but bidders should obtain an express portal clarification before relying on either treatment.
Both provisions prescribe 90 days, but PQ runs it from notified pre-qualification opening while the conditions run it from last receipt. No hierarchy resolves this; seek clarification and keep the bid valid through the later possible expiry.
PQ says the final 2.5% retention is excluding GST, whereas the additional conditions say the retained 2.5% is including GST. The later/more detailed tender conditions apply an including-GST basis, but this should be confirmed for cash-flow pricing.
General GST conditions say EMD is 1% of contract value, which would not match the repeatedly stated fixed Rs.3,02,000. The tender-specific fixed amount of Rs.3,02,000 prevails and is the amount payable online.
Criterion 9 contains a stray statement of twenty-rupee stamp paper for Schedule F/G, while its evidence paragraph and both printed forms require Rs.100. The specific printed Schedule F and G forms prevail: use Rs.100 non-judicial stamp paper for each.
Narrative criteria list both the one-work and two-work thresholds without an explicit 'or', while Schedule D-2 expressly treats them as alternatives. The specific prescribed schedule indicates either route, but clarification is advisable because qualification is pass/fail.
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.
Please confirm whether BOQ's 'not applicable' statement overrides PQ Clause 13(b), or whether cement/steel/bitumen/POL adjustment applies during the ten-month contract; also issue the applicable formula, base indices and milestones.
Please confirm that one Rs.291.50 lakh similar building OR two Rs.145.75 lakh similar buildings are alternative qualification routes, as Schedule D-2 states, rather than cumulative requirements.
Please confirm whether 2.5% final retention is calculated including or excluding GST, and clarify additional-security treatment for every discount band, especially discounts above 20% and the wording '5 to 15%'.
Please provide the complete approved drawings, specifications, site-handover status, soil/geotechnical information and utility interfaces before bid closing; quantities may be changed and Government disclaims BOQ completeness, materially affecting lump-sum pricing and the ten-month programme.
Please confirm whether the 90-day validity starts from the revised submission deadline or revised technical-opening time, and state the exact expiry date required on all undertakings/security documents.
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.
Time is of the essence: ten calendar months include monsoon, with mandatory cumulative progress from 15% in month 1 to 100% in month 10. Avoidable delay can trigger up to 5% penalty/forfeiture, partial offloading at bidder's cost, or termination and security forfeiture.
Only 95% of certified work is paid; 5% is withheld, no advance is paid for unfixed materials, 2.5% remains for one year plus a four-year indemnity, and no interest is payable on arrears or retained balances.
Government disclaims BOQ correctness/completeness and may omit, deduct or add quantities. Contractor must investigate quantities/material sources and cannot later claim misunderstanding or extra lead costs.
Work remains at contractor's risk until takeover; Government excludes fire/flood/earthquake/Act-of-God losses and leaves insurance optional. No damages are payable for pre-commencement expenditure; withdrawal is allowed only if site handover is delayed over two months after agreement acceptance.
Generally no delay/hindrance compensation is payable. Any claim that missing instructions caused delay must be lodged within 14 days from commencement of the hindrance or no extension is allowed.
On default, Government may terminate, forfeit security, complete the balance through others, recover all excess cost from this or other monies, retain/use site plant without payment, and pay only work certified by the Executive Engineer.
Original-building structural/fault liability extends five years. Contractor must remedy faulty/substandard work at its own cost, with 2.5% held for year one and a four-year indemnity thereafter.
Claims up to Rs.50,000 go to the named departmental arbitrator; claims above Rs.50,000 must go to competent civil court, increasing time and enforcement cost for material disputes.
