5 Sept 2026
26 Sept 2026
All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
05-09-2026.
No pre-bid meeting date or tender-specific clarification deadline is stated. The ITB only says that, if a pre-bid meeting applies, queries must be sent 2 days before it.
26-09-2026 16:00:00. This tender-specific time prevails over the generic GPC reference to 15:00 IST.
27-09-2026 16:00:00.
90 days from the bid end date.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No estimated tender value is stated. No tender/document fee is specified; the GeM disclaimer says asking for a tender or bid-participation fee would invalidate the bid.
Not required; therefore no EMD amount, form or validity applies.
5.00% of order value; the GeM bid specifies 15 months. The buyer-added clause permits DD, BG or online wire transfer and requires MRPL's BG format. Submit within 15 days of order when supply cannot be made within 15 days. The BG form carries a 90-day claim period.
Tender-specific payment is within 10 days after issue of CRAC and online submission of bills. Because supplies are staggered, the GPC states 95% against each accepted supply and the remaining 5% after the last consignment; its 15-day wording conflicts with the tender-specific 10-day timeline.
Quote an all-inclusive INR price per kg on GeM, including TPI, packing/forwarding, freight, insurance and GST; GST reimbursement is limited to actual/applicable rate or the quoted GST percentage, whichever is lower.
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 the original manufacturer, the manufacturer's sole selling agent, or an authorized dealer of the manufacturer for DWPE. An agent/dealer must provide valid authorization and assumes responsibility for all technical guarantees and services.
Supply at least 7,200 kg of DWPE similar to the technical specification to an Indian refinery, petrochemical, fertilizer or other Indian industry within any 12-month period, under one or multiple orders, during the past 5 years ending on the last day of the month before invitation.
The GeM bid field says no MSE or startup relaxation for experience/turnover. Although the attached PQC says qualified MSEs receive up to 15% relaxation on prior experience, the GeM disclaimer makes buyer-added conditions contrary to bid-detail fields invalid; bidders should use the no-relaxation position unless MRPL clarifies otherwise.
No numeric turnover or net-worth threshold is stated. The mandatory Statement of Credentials nevertheless asks for nationalized-bank references/solvency certificate and audited balance sheets for the last 3 years ending the previous financial year; CA-issued/certified financial documents must carry UDIN.
Every experience document must be certified by the bidder's statutory auditor or an independent practicing CA where audited accounts are not legally mandatory, or notarized by a notary public in the bidder's country.
Bid must comply with all technical specifications and scope, quote the complete item, provide MSDS and TDS, and submit a complete clause-wise technical offer. Incomplete technical data or deviations from PQC/BEC can cause rejection.
Consortium bids are not accepted. Offers in a domestic tender must be in INR.
Bidder must not be on the blacklist or holiday list of MRPL or MoPNG, or debarred by DoE, during the tender period; a self-certified declaration is mandatory. Any ban arising during tendering makes the bid rejectable.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only if registered with the DPIIT Registration Committee; the prescribed undertaking and, where applicable, registration evidence must accompany the technical bid.
Purchase preference is available up to L1+15% for 100% of quantity only to a validated MSE manufacturer/OEM of the offered product with valid Udyam credentials; traders, resellers, dealers, distributors and authorized agents are excluded.
A bidder is disqualified by specified conflicts such as common controlling ownership, common constituents/legal representative, cross-subsidy, access to another bidder's information, influence over another bid, or prior participation as the authority's consultant for tender documents/specifications.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 12,000 kg of de-watering poly-electrolyte (DWPE) for ETP III chemical/oily-sludge and bio-sludge treatment systems. Scope is supply of goods only.
Deliver 12,000 kg to MRPL, Kuthetoor PO, Via Katipalla, Mangaluru 575030, in batches over one year from PO/contract. Each delivery instruction must be dispatched within 30 days.
Fresh white granular cationic copolymer of acrylamide; medium charge density; UL viscosity 3.60–5.0 cps; NVS 85–95%; storage temperature 0–35°C. Chemical must meet local pollution rules and have no adverse effect on plant/equipment/product.
Supply in lined, tight bags. Bidder must state/guarantee shelf life, and at delivery at least 12 months usable shelf life must remain. Submit chemical/product data sheet, MSDS, storage/safety requirements and handling precautions.
Send a material test certificate with each supply. MRPL's laboratory result is the sole acceptance criterion; post-receipt inspection is by MRPL. Any off-spec batch must be replaced free of cost.
MRPL may increase or decrease the award quantity by up to 25% at placement and may increase contracted quantity by up to 25% during the contract at the same rates, with delivery time calculated under the option clause.
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 on GeM as a two-packet bid: Part I techno-commercial/unpriced and Part II price. Technical and price bids submitted together are rejected; quote price directly on GeM.
Serially number all technical-bid pages and provide an index. Upload either a digitally signed tender/ATC/annexure/amendment set or a company-signed and sealed set. Corrections must be attested by the bidder's full signature.
No physical bid document is a pre-qualification requirement. For the post-award BG, the issuing bank should send the original directly to MRPL with SFMS confirmation by registered post/courier; a supplier-sent BG is not accepted until the bank sends an attested copy. DD/BG envelopes must show the GeM bid number and go to the Materials Department address.
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.
The AI found nothing to report for this question.
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.
Generic GPC says bids close at 15:00 IST on the notified date, while the GeM bid states 26-09-2026 16:00:00. The tender-specific GeM time prevails: 16:00.
The GeM bid says MSE relaxation for experience/turnover is No, but the attached PQC grants qualified MSEs up to 15% prior-experience relaxation. The GeM bid-detail selection should prevail because the same bid says contrary buyer-added conditions are invalid; obtain buyer confirmation before relying on relaxation.
The GeM bid mandates payment within 10 days after CRAC and online bills. GPC clause 39 uses 15 days and, for staggered supply, 95% per accepted supply plus 5% after the last consignment. The 10-day tender-specific deadline prevails over generic timing, but the bid does not expressly remove the 95/5 structure; clarify whether the final 5% is also due within 10 days.
The GeM bid sets ePBG duration at 15 months, while GPC clause 38 requires validity for supply plus warranty/guarantee and another 3-month claim period; on a one-year staggered contract with a generic 12/18-month warranty, this could greatly exceed 15 months. The tender-specific 15 months is the stated bid value, but written clarification is essential before arranging the instrument.
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 MSE manufacturers must meet the full 7,200 kg experience threshold or may use the attached PQC's 15% relaxation, because the GeM bid field says no relaxation.
Please provide the exact expiry and claim dates for the 5% PBG: the GeM field says 15 months, while GPC requires coverage through supply plus warranty and a further 3 months.
For the one-year batch supply, confirm whether each accepted batch is paid 100% within 10 days of CRAC or 95% within 10 days with 5% retained until the last consignment; also confirm the release deadline for that retained 5%.
Please confirm whether the generic 12/18-month equipment warranty applies to this consumable, the sampling/test method and permitted retest for MRPL lab rejection, and who bears return/disposal costs for a disputed batch. Acceptance otherwise rests solely on MRPL's lab and off-spec material must be replaced free.
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.
PRS is 0.5% of delayed-supply value per week or part, capped at 5% of order/contract value; if a partial supply does not meet operating need, MRPL may levy on the full PO value. MRPL may also procure elsewhere and recover price difference and additional expense.
MRPL lab results are the sole acceptance criterion. Off-spec material must be replaced free; rejected goods are removed at seller risk/cost, and delayed removal attracts handling/storage at 5% of material value for each month or part.
5% security is tied up without interest, may be adjusted against any MRPL dues and forfeited for failure to execute supply or warranty. The stated 15-month duration conflicts with GPC's supply-plus-warranty-plus-claim requirement.
For staggered delivery, GPC retains 5% of supplied value until completion/last consignment; invoice settlement may also be withheld for missing drawings/data/documentation. This is compounded by the unresolved 10-day versus 15-day payment wording.
The entire 12,000 kg is called off in batches over one year, yet every delivered batch must retain at least 12 months usable shelf life and dispatch within 30 days of each instruction. Inventory and production planning therefore remain with the seller throughout the year.
Buyer may vary quantity ±25% and add up to 25% during contract at the same rates. Generic GPC also seeks acceptance of repeat orders for one year on the same unit prices, increasing commodity-price exposure.
Force majeure excludes inclement weather, third-party breach, ordinary material delay and commercial hardship; notice is due within 10 days. Time extension is the seller's sole remedy, with no damages/compensation, and MRPL may cancel if the event exceeds two months.
Buyer may terminate for material breach, inability/delay in delivery, defective replacement failure, insolvency or misrepresentation. False bid documents can trigger rejection, security forfeiture, PO cancellation and holiday listing.
