Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Not specified in the tender documents.
Not required; therefore no EMD amount, form or validity applies to this bid.
Not required under the bid's ePBG field.
No tender fee is specified; the bid disclaimer expressly lists asking for a tender fee or bid participation fee as prohibited.
Quote a firm, fixed, all-inclusive INR price; evaluation is on total all-inclusive landed price at the consignee, with transportation, loading/unloading and local levies included.
For accepted goods, 100% payment is due within 10 days after issue of CRAC and online submission of bills. Rejected goods are not payable.
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.
Minimum average annual turnover: ₹1 lakh for the last 3 years, ending 31 March of the previous financial year; buyer verifies it at technical evaluation.
Minimum OEM average turnover: ₹1 lakh for the last 3 years, supported by certified audited balance sheets or a CA/Cost Accountant certificate.
The bidder or its OEM must have regularly manufactured and supplied the same or similar category products to a Central/State Government organisation or PSU for 1 financial year before bid opening.
The bidder or OEM must have supplied the same or similar category products equal to 20% of the bid quantity in at least one of the last three financial years before bid opening to a Central/State Government organisation or PSU.
Eligible MSEs receive complete relaxation from bidder experience and turnover; an MSE that is itself the OEM also receives OEM-turnover relaxation, subject to quality/technical compliance. Startup relaxation is not allowed.
The offered disposable sanitary napkin must be ISI marked/conform to IS 5405, be ultra-thin, incorporate an SAP sheet/core, and match the exact product represented by the sample, test report and bid documents.
Technical responsiveness requires a compliant physical sample before technical evaluation and a valid test report for the offered product from a BIS-recognised laboratory; non-recognised-lab reports are rejected.
Submit valid GST registration where legally applicable, bidder/entity PAN, applicable manufacturer/OEM documents, and any registration/licence/certificate mandated by law or GeM conditions. Documents must be valid, legible and applicable at technical evaluation.
By bidding, the seller undertakes that it is not presently debarred under GFR Rule 151. False, misleading, materially incorrect or forged submissions can lead to rejection/administrative action, including suspension or debarment.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India, and any bidder with a specified ToT arrangement with an entity from such a country, is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority. The definition includes affected consortium/JV members.
Only one bid may be submitted; bids from affiliates, sister concerns, associated firms or related parties are treated as multiple bids and all such bids are rejected.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 23,365 pieces of Disposable Sanitary Napkin/Panty Liner/Maternity Pad/Period Panty (V2), ISI marked to IS 5405.
Sanitary napkin; disposable; rayon knitted sleeve top sheet; with wings; tab-less; absorbent-core length 241–280 mm; ultra-thin construction with SAP sheet/core.
Deliver all 23,365 pieces within 15 days to Kendriya Vidyalaya Sikh Lines Meerut, Near Kaseru Khera, Meerut Cantt, UP 250001; consignee/reporting officer: Ravi Pratap Singh.
Supply in proper sealed, hygienic packaging suitable for storage/distribution, with legally required product/manufacturer and batch/manufacturing details. Delivered goods must be identical to the technically accepted product/sample; rejected goods must be replaced at supplier cost.
The purchaser may increase or decrease the ordered quantity by up to 25% at contract placement and may increase contracted quantity by up to 25% during the contract at contracted rates; additional delivery time follows the bid's stated formula.
Buyer may inspect at delivery and the GTC permits acceptance/rejection within 10 days of receipt. Unless category/bid terms specify otherwise, a one-year standard warranty runs from final acceptance, with defective goods to be rectified/replaced within 7 days.
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 the bid online on GeM as a Single Packet Bid. Evaluation is total-value-wise; reverse auction is not enabled.
GeM uses Aadhaar-based e-signing for documents; the GTC states that e-sign is legally at par with digital signatures. No separate DSC class, notarisation or page-by-page signing rule is stated.
Submit a physical sample of the exact offered product before technical evaluation to the Kendriya Vidyalaya address stated in the bid. The tender gives no precise clock deadline or separate sample-submission protocol; failure may make the bid technically non-responsive.
No EMD or ePBG is required and the tender does not require physical originals of bid documents. The only physical submission expressly demanded is the product sample.
All submitted documents must be valid, legible and applicable at technical evaluation. The buyer may verify authenticity and seek only permitted clarifications; clarification cannot cure a material product/specification change.
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.
The bid's seller-document field requests an OEM Authorization Certificate, but the GTC says buyers must not seek/check OEM authorization for Q1 or Q2 products; this tender's item is marked Q2. ATC clause 46 says mandatory GeM/Government provisions prevail, so the GTC position should prevail, but bidders should still upload the portal-requested certificate if available and obtain buyer clarification to avoid technical rejection.
Buyer ATC makes a physical sample before technical evaluation mandatory and threatens technical non-responsiveness. The bid disclaimer says seeking a sample during evaluation is prohibited unless allowed by an approved and published procurement policy of the controlling organisation; no such policy is included. Under ATC clause 46, mandatory GeM provisions prevail. Applicability is therefore unresolved in the documents; bidder should seek written confirmation and, unless corrected, submit the sample defensively.
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 identify the approved/published KVS or Ministry policy that permits pre-evaluation samples under the GeM disclaimer, and confirm the exact recipient, room/address, submission deadline, accepted hours, quantity, acknowledgement method and whether courier delivery is allowed. The ATC only says ‘before commencement of technical evaluation’ and refers to an address/time ‘specified in the bid’, but no precise sample deadline is printed.
Please confirm through the GeM representation window whether the OEM Authorization Certificate will be evaluated, because the bid requests it while GTC clause 28 expressly says it is not required for Q2 products.
Please confirm whether a full IS 5405 test report is required, the required tests/parameters, acceptable report age/validity, sample size and whether the laboratory must appear on a particular BIS recognition list as of bid end. The ATC requires a ‘valid’ BIS-recognised-lab report but states no report age or complete test schedule.
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.
The full 23,365-piece supply is due in 15 days. Buyer may vary the initial quantity by ±25% and later increase contracted quantity by 25%, creating stock and logistics exposure; confirm production and transport capacity before bidding.
Delay attracts LD of 0.5% of delayed-quantity contract value per week or part, normally capped at 5% of total contract value and up to 10% for inordinate delay; delay beyond 25% of the completion period is inordinate. No price increase is allowed in an LD extension, while GST reductions benefit the buyer.
Buyer may inspect/reject after receipt; no payment is made for rejected goods. Rejected goods must be removed within 10 days or ground rent/warehousing and disposal-at-seller-risk may follow. ATC also requires replacement at supplier cost.
Although payment is stated as 100% within 10 days, the clock begins only after CRAC and online bill submission. Sample/product/test-report identity rules give the buyer a broad basis to withhold acceptance for any material deviation.
Unless the category/bid overrides it, the GTC imposes a one-year warranty from final acceptance and requires rectification/replacement within 7 days. This is commercially unusual for sanitary consumables and should be priced/clarified, especially regarding shelf life and batch defects.
Failure to deliver by the original/extended/re-fixed date permits cancellation of the unsupplied portion. Non-performance may lead to forfeiture of any applicable performance security, rating downgrade or debarment; false/forged documents and inferior goods are also administrative-action grounds.
The unresolved sample-policy and Q2 OEM-authorization conflicts can cause avoidable rejection, courier cost and bid-preparation risk. Raise both through the GeM representation window before bid end and preserve the buyer's written response.
