Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
₹10,37,952 (system value 1037952). It is guidance for EMD/eligibility and not a price benchmark.
The GeM bid requires ₹31,139, while the buyer ATC prints ₹31,138; this unresolved ₹1 conflict must be clarified before obtaining the instrument. The ATC requires an account-payee DD from a nationalised/state-approved scheduled bank in favour of ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER (VIGILANCE), TRIBAL DEVELOPMENT VALSAD, sent in original by sealed-cover RPAD within 5 days of Bid End Date. The bid also expressly permits surety bond, and GeM GTC lists insurance surety bond, DD, FDR, banker’s cheque, bank guarantee/e-BG or online payment. Bid security validity is 45 days beyond the 180-day bid validity and bears no interest.
5% of contract/work-order value. The bid/GTC requires validity for 2 months beyond completion of all contractual obligations (including warranty), extension with any obligation extension, and no interest. Buyer ATC says refund 2 months after purchase completion; its printed bank-guarantee form keeps claims alive until 90 days after contract expiry. The ATC form demands submission within 7 days of work order, conflicting with the bid/GTC 15-day period; apply the stricter 7-day deadline unless buyer confirms otherwise.
Quoted rates must include prevailing taxes and delivery to each hostel; no price increase is allowed during the contract. Although GTC normally pays 100% within 10 days of CRAC and online bill, the buyer ATC expressly makes payment subject to availability of Government grant and requires GST bills in triplicate plus hostel receipt/quality certificate/delivery challan. 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.
Bidder must furnish GST registration, GST clearance through March 2026, PAN and proof of entity/office constitution. MSE bidders must additionally furnish Udyam and CSPO/NSIC registrations.
A current and operative BIS licence for IS 5405:2019 or IS 5405:2025 is mandatory and must be valid on bid opening. It may be in the bidder/OEM/manufacturer’s name, but the offered brand must be mentioned on it.
An OEM must submit evidence of OEM status; a reseller must submit the OEM authorisation certificate.
Submit a CA/Cost Accountant certificate with UDIN showing turnover for FY 2023-24, 2024-25 and 2025-26. No minimum turnover amount or net-worth threshold is printed. If FY 2025-26 is provisional, it must be CA-certified and the successful bidder must submit that year’s income-tax return and CA-certified audited report within 30 days of work order, failing which the contract will be cancelled.
No numeric experience/past-performance threshold is printed. MSE relaxation for years of experience/turnover is marked ‘No’; DPIIT startups receive complete relaxation from any configured bidder experience and turnover criteria, subject to quality/technical compliance and uploading proof.
The prescribed notarised affidavit must confirm that the bidder/partners are not financial-institution defaulters and have not been listed, banned, blacklisted or punished by a government department, Union/State Government, board, corporation or government financial institution during the stated three-year look-back (excluding the current FY). False/forged information permits rejection/cancellation, EMD/PBG forfeiture and legal action.
Only Class-I or Class-II local suppliers may participate. Minimum local content is 50% for Class-I and 20% for Class-II. A bidder claiming purchase preference must upload an OEM certificate stating local-content percentage and value-addition locations; only Class-I receives the preference described in the bid.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority and must submit the stated compliance undertaking; false declaration/non-compliance is grounds for immediate termination and legal action.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 86,496 disposable sanitary napkins for 901 girls at 10 Government Girls’ Hostels in Valsad district for academic year 2026-27. Hostel-wise indicative quantities total 86,496 and may increase/decrease with actual student attendance.
ISI conformity to IS 5405; disposable sanitary napkin; cotton-gauze top sheet as per IS 758; wings and tab; absorbent-core length at least 281 mm; polyethylene packaging. Buyer ATC further requires extra-large, ultra-thin/high-comfort fluff core, soft non-woven top sheet, absorption ≥30 ml up to 50 ml, 10 individually protected pads per moisture-proof primary pack, sterilised construction free of toxic colours/heavy artificial fragrance/chemical skin allergens, and leak-proof side barriers.
GeM sets 45 delivery days for all six system consignee/reporting-officer lines. Buyer ATC states an eight-month period from work-order issue, delivery at the supplier’s cost/risk during office hours to all 10 hostels, and possible extension by the Assistant Commissioner. These provisions do not state whether 45 days is the first lot or the full quantity and require clarification.
Buyer may vary initial quantity by ±25% at award and add up to 25% of contracted quantity during the contract at contracted rates. ATC lists 10 hostel delivery addresses across Valsad, Dharampur, Pardi, Kaprada and Umargam; if a hostel moves, delivery shifts to the new address without a stated price adjustment.
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.
Upload technical bid/documents and price bid on GeM by the deadline under a Two Packet Bid. Technical clarifications may be sought with 2 days allowed for response.
Upload self-certified scans in Annexure-1 order; paginate supporting evidence and sign-certify every page. The responsible person must sign and stamp every page of the filled tender and technical bid. No DSC class is specified in the documents.
Send only the original EMD DD offline, in a sealed cover by RPAD, within 5 days of Bid End Date to Assistant Commissioner (Vigilance), Tribal Development Office, District Tribal Seva Sadan, 3rd Floor, beside Civil Hospital, Nanakvada, Valsad 386001. Mark the cover with the sanitary-pad tender and bid number. Other documents are not to be submitted offline unless requested.
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.
GeM Bid Detail requires ₹31,139; ATC cover/B.1 prints ₹31,138 (and its Gujarati words appear inconsistent with the digits). No corrigendum resolves this. The ATC says its conditions prevail over GeM standard terms, but the GeM-configured amount is operationally exact; obtain buyer confirmation before issuing the DD rather than risk rejection over ₹1.
ATC requires original DD by RPAD within 5 days of Bid End Date; buyer-added bid text says within 5 days of Bid End date / Bid Opening date; GTC says hard copy within 5 working days of bid opening and allows several instrument forms. The tender-specific ATC is the stricter instruction: RPAD DD within 5 calendar days after bid end, unless buyer clarifies otherwise.
ATC’s prescribed PBG form requires submission within 7 days and a claim tail through 90 days after contract expiry. The GeM bid/GTC allow 15 days and specify validity 2 months beyond all obligations; ATC E.6 says refund 2 months after purchase completion. Apply the buyer’s stricter 7-day submission and printed 90-day claim tail unless amended/clarified.
GTC promises 100% payment within 10 days of CRAC and online bill unless ATC differs; ATC makes payment contingent on grant availability, with no outer deadline. The specific ATC condition prevails, leaving payment timing open-ended.
GeM states 45 days and shows six consignee/reporting-officer lines all at the Valsad office, while ATC describes an eight-month supply to 10 hostels and requires delivery at each hostel. ATC is more tender-specific and lists final-use sites, but it does not provide lot frequency; buyer must confirm whether 86,496 pads are delivered in one 45-day lot or periodically over eight months.
The turnover form asks for ‘vegetable supply business’ turnover, although this tender is for sanitary napkins; the bidder profile asks for a Food Safety licence although eligibility does not list one. The sanitary-napkin tender scope prevails, but bidders should obtain written instructions on how to complete these mandatory forms.
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 the EMD must be ₹31,139 (GeM) or ₹31,138 (ATC); whether DD is mandatory or all GeM-permitted forms/surety bond are acceptable; and whether the physical original must arrive within 5 calendar days of Bid End Date or 5 working days after opening. This is a direct bid-rejection risk.
Please issue the lot/month schedule: is the entire 86,496 quantity due within 45 days, or are supplies called off over eight months? Also confirm whether system consignee address is only the reporting address and the 10 Annexure-2 hostels are the actual delivery points.
ATC requires supply according to an ‘approved sample’ and replacement within 3 days, but gives no sample quantity, submission deadline/place, approval authority, test method, lab, cost allocation or acceptance tolerances. Confirm whether a pre-award sample is mandatory and publish the full procedure.
Please confirm that Annexure-4’s ‘vegetable supply’ turnover column should be read as sanitary-napkin/product turnover and whether Annexure-6’s Food Safety licence field is ‘not applicable’. Also confirm the numeric turnover threshold, if any, because none is printed.
Please confirm an enforceable payment deadline despite the grant-availability clause, and reconcile PBG submission (7 versus 15 days) and validity/claim tail (2 months versus 90 days). These terms materially affect working capital and bank charges.
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.
Delivery time is of the essence. LD is 0.5% of delayed-quantity contract value per week/part, capped at 5% of total contract value; an inexcusable delay beyond 25% of completion period is ‘inordinate’ and may raise the cap to 10%. Buyer may cancel the unsupplied portion after the delivery date and forfeit performance security, with rating downgrade/debarment exposure.
Buyer/consignee may inspect after receipt and reject; ATC requires nonconforming/low-quality goods to be replaced at seller cost within 3 days and no payment is due for rejected goods. GTC additionally gives a standard one-year warranty and 7-day defect rectification/replacement unless category/bid terms override it.
For late or poor-quality supply, buyer may cancel mid-contract, forfeit security, procure from open market and deduct the excess price from bills, with the ATC stating no grievance will be entertained. Buyer also reserves unilateral cancellation if procurement practice changes. Subcontracting/transfer automatically cancels the contract and forfeits deposit.
Quantities are attendance-based estimates, initial/contract quantity may be varied by 25%, hostel locations may move, and all delivery/loading/unloading/transit risk is included in the fixed rate. There is no price increase during the eight-month term.
Payment is contingent on Government grant availability with no outer deadline, while 5% performance security is non-interest-bearing and payment does not become due under GTC until security is received/verified. Price must remain fixed and inclusive. See keyFinancials for the conflicting payment/PBG details.
Bid converts to reverse auction using H1-highest-priced-bid elimination. Generally the highest technically qualified quote cannot participate, subject to the listed exceptions; pricing strategy must account for losing RA access despite technical qualification.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
