All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Published online from 17 September 2026 at 11:00 IST; online document sale remains open until 16 October 2026 at 17:00 IST.
Pre-bid meeting: 28 September 2026 at 12:00 IST. The RFP separately states the online query deadline as D+14 days (D = upload date), which corresponds to 1 October 2026 if D is 17 September 2026; the resulting sequence should be confirmed on the portal.
Online bid submission closes on 16 October 2026 at 17:00 IST.
Tender opening is scheduled for 19 October 2026 at 11:00 IST, if possible.
Use not less than 180 days from the Bid Due Date. The RFP schedule says 120 days, but the operative validity clause and the prescribed financial-bid letter both require 180 days.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Estimated cost / cost put to tender: Rs. 230.00 crore (INR 2,300,000,000), excluding GST for qualification calculations.
Rs. 2.30 crore by irrevocable, unconditional bank guarantee from a nationalized bank or an Indian commercial scheduled bank having net worth of at least Rs. 1,000 crore, in Appendix-VI format; validity at least 180 days from Bid Due Date inclusive of a 60-day claim period. Eligible NSIC single-point-registered MSEs receive exemption only up to the monetary limit in the valid certificate and must pay the difference.
Rs. 35,400, non-refundable, through the online payment gateway. Clause 2.13.2 also mentions Rs. 35,400 plus applicable GST and permits DD, creating a payment-mode/tax conflict that should be clarified before payment.
Performance security is 7.5% of Contract Price. The EPC Agreement requires a nationalized-bank guarantee within 15 days of LOA, valid until 180 days after the 10-year DLP; the RFP instead allows 30 days and commercial scheduled banks, so the stricter Agreement position should be priced pending clarification. Below-estimate bids also attract additional performance security under the sliding formula in Clause 1.2.4.
The Authority deducts 6% from each works payment until retention reaches 5% of Contract Price; 2.5% runs to completion and 2.5% through the DLP, with a bank-guarantee substitution option. Stage statements are monthly; 90% part payment is recommended within 7 working days and paid within 15 working days of recommendation, while certified payments are due no later than 30 days from statement submission.
On request, mobilization advance up to 10% of Bid Project Cost is available in two 5% instalments against matching guarantees; interest is Bank Rate plus 3% compounded annually and recovery is in four equal instalments with interest. The lump-sum price includes duties, taxes, royalties, levies, design and six months’ operationalization, but GST is separately paid/reimbursed; price adjustment and change-in-law relief are available only under Clauses 19.10 and 19.17.
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.
A bidder may be a single entity or JV, but cannot bid twice or participate in another bidder. Disqualifying conflicts include common controlling interests, common constituents or representatives, cross-subsidy/financing, access to another bid, participation as the Authority’s project consultant, or engagement of the Authority’s project adviser within the restricted periods.
Over the preceding five financial years, payments received / own construction on similar or EPC/PPP works must total more than Rs. 230 crore excluding GST. In addition, completed similar government/semi-government multistorey administrative or office buildings must meet 3 × Rs. 92 crore, 2 × Rs. 115 crore, or 1 × Rs. 184 crore, excluding GST; minimum 90% physical completion certified by an Executive Engineer or higher is accepted as stated.
At least one completed building must hold GRIHA / IGBC / LEEDS certification. In any one of the last five financial years, the bidder must have executed at least: M45+ concrete 3,682 cum; reinforcement steel 1,306 MT; bonded post-tensioning 116 MT; one STP above 125 cu.m/day; and curtain-wall glazing 1,322 sq.m. If no submitted similar work is government turnkey/design-build/EPC, the bidder or JV member must additionally have completed a Rs. 92 crore such government project.
Average annual turnover for the last three years ending 31 March of the previous financial year must be at least Rs. 230 crore excluding GST; minimum net worth is Rs. 1,357 lakh at the preceding year-end; available bid capacity A×N×2−B must exceed Rs. 230 crore excluding GST; financial loss is permitted in no more than one of the last three years; and holding capacity must be Rs. 23 crore excluding GST. All are to be statutory-auditor certified.
Required owned equipment includes a 60–75 cum/hr SCADA-enabled batch plant, five 6-cum transit mixers, one 10 cum/hr sand washing/screening unit, one tower crane of at least 5 MT and scaffolding equal to 1.5 times the largest slab area, each with stated maximum age 5 years as at 31 March 2025. The specified team includes senior project manager, four site engineers, two plant engineers, resident engineer, two quality engineers, safety engineer, electrical engineer and five O&M engineers/operators with the listed qualifications and experience.
Maximum two entities. Threshold technical capacity may be collective, but Clause 2.2.2(A)(ii) must be met by one member. Lead member must meet at least 51% of each financial-capacity requirement, the other member at least 25%, and the JV collectively 100%. Members must execute the prescribed binding Joint Bidding Agreement, be jointly and severally liable, state roles/work shares, and cannot change composition through completion without prior permission under the stated rule.
No bidder/member may be under a subsisting Central/State Government or controlled-entity bar. In the last three years, no bidder/member may have contract non-performance evidenced by arbitral/judicial penalty or award, expulsion by a public entity, or public-contract termination for breach. Ongoing litigation and blacklisting processes must be disclosed, and the Authority may reject on that information.
Where 50% or more equity is held by non-residents, or the bidder/member is controlled by non-residents (including a later 50% acquisition), eligibility is subject to the Authority’s national-security and public-interest approval; shareholding changes must be promptly disclosed or the bidder is disqualified.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Single-point EPC responsibility for detailed design, engineering, procurement, construction, testing, commissioning, documentation, handover and defects liability for the New Administrative Building (Part-2), Extension to Vidhan Bhavan, Civil Lines, Nagpur.
A core-and-shell government administrative complex within the secured, operational Vidhan Bhavan precinct, including ministerial/administrative/secretariat offices, meeting and conference facilities, public areas, building services, utilities, roads, landscape and external development within the contract boundary.
The current package is described as Phase 1 shell/core: demolition of temporary structures, west and east blocks (shell/core), and external development. The same page describes a Phase 2 interior/fit-out and systems package, but the exclusions later remove those items from the present EPC package; this boundary requires confirmation.
Deliverables include DBRs, calculations, BIM/coordination models, shop drawings, method statements, programme, material/TDS and inspection records, progress reports, as-builts, O&M manuals, warranties, asset registers, testing/commissioning reports, training records, completion dossiers and digital documentation. FAT, SAT, integrated, performance, reliability and final commissioning are included.
The EPC Agreement fixes scheduled completion at the 456th day from the Appointed Date. Schedule J expresses it inconsistently as the ‘twentieth (15th) month’ from LOA; its numeral aligns approximately with 456 days. Defects liability is 10 years from Completion Certificate, and the Contract Price includes six months of operationalization after completion.
Execution is governed by the DBRs, technical specifications, approved makes, tender drawings, BOQ, applicable codes/standards and statutory requirements. All reasonably necessary labour, materials, temporary works, testing, approvals and incidental activities are deemed included even if not expressly itemized.
Unless specifically included elsewhere: interior finishes/partitions/ceilings/decorative flooring; fixed, loose and modular furniture; occupancy interiors; internal HVAC beyond battery limits; final AV/IT and active networking; security/CCTV end devices/access control; BMS software/end-user devices; decorative lighting; specialist acoustics; and work outside the project boundary are excluded.
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 electronically on mahatenders.gov.in under the two-bid system: scanned technical documents and a separate financial bid. A Class-III DSC with signing and encryption in the authorized signatory’s name is mandatory; each uploaded document must be digitally signed. Do not modify the BOQ filename or protected cells.
Bid and correspondence must be in English. Other-language supporting material needs a bidder-authenticated and certified English translation. Online files are DSC-signed; technical hard copy is to be self-attested and indexed with page numbers.
Use the stricter same-day rule pending clarification: submit the self-attested technical hard copy and required originals at the Chief Engineer’s address on the day of online bid lock. Clauses conflict: portal instructions say originals within three days after the last date and not before it, while Clause 2.14.3 says same day; Clause 2.12.1 specifically identifies Bid Security, tender fee, POA and Joint Bidding Agreement as hard-copy items.
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 only corrigendum supplied is Corrigendum No. 1 dated 15 September 2026. It sets the online publication/document-sale/bid window to 17 September 2026 11:00 IST through 16 October 2026 17:00 IST, pre-bid meeting to 28 September 2026 12:00 IST, and opening to 19 October 2026 11:00 IST (if possible). The superseded dates are not printed in the supplied document, so an original-versus-amended chain cannot be reconstructed. Bidder action: calendar these revised dates and monitor mahatenders.gov.in for further addenda.
Publication/upload: 17 September 2026 11:00 IST; pre-bid: 28 September 2026 12:00 IST; online bid deadline: 16 October 2026 17:00 IST; opening: 19 October 2026 11:00 IST, if possible; estimated cost: Rs. 230 crore; bid security: Rs. 2.30 crore; fee: Rs. 35,400. No substantive addendum or pre-bid reply is present in the supplied folder.
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.
Clause 1.2.8 says 120 days, while Clause 1.2.1 and the mandatory Appendix-I B offer letter say not less than 180 days. Use 180 days because it is repeated in the operative clause and prescribed bid form.
The RFP says technical bids open online at 15:30 on the Bid Due Date, but Corrigendum No. 1 revises opening to 19 October 2026 at 11:00 IST. The later corrigendum prevails.
Portal instructions require originals within three days after the last bid date and prohibit pre-deadline hard copy, while Clause 2.14.3 requires the self-attested technical hard copy on the same day as online bid lock. The more specific formal clause supports same-day submission, but written clarification is necessary.
The RFP allows 30 days after LOA and a nationalized or commercial scheduled bank; the EPC Agreement requires 15 days and states a nationalized bank. The Agreement is the post-award contract and is stricter, so price/arrange on the 15-day nationalized-bank basis unless amended.
Two clauses say Rs. 35,400 non-refundable through online gateway only, while Clause 2.13.2 says Rs. 35,400 plus applicable GST and permits online or DD. The repeated online-only amount is safer for portal submission, but whether GST is additional must be confirmed.
Schedule J prints sixth (4th), twelfth (8th), eighteenth (12th), twenty-second (14th), and twentieth (15th) month. The Agreement separately fixes 456 days from Appointed Date, broadly matching 15 months; milestone numerals appear intended but must be formally confirmed.
The broad scope describes Phase 2 interiors, furniture, AV, CCTV, access control and final integration, but the exclusions remove those same elements from the present package unless included elsewhere. The exclusions are more specific to the present EPC package, but the battery limits require an addendum.
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 issue a corrected Schedule J confirming whether Milestones I–IV are at months 4, 8, 12 and 14 and completion is 456 days / month 15, and state whether dates run from LOA or Appointed Date. This affects programme, preliminaries, LD exposure and bid capacity.
Please reconcile the Phase 2 list with Section 18 exclusions and issue a responsibility matrix for interiors, HVAC distribution, AV/IT, CCTV/access control, BMS, furniture, acoustic works and final integration. This is essential to lump-sum pricing.
Please confirm exactly which originals/hard copies are required and whether they are due at bid lock, by the online deadline, or within three days afterward. The current instructions are mutually incompatible and can cause rejection.
Please confirm whether Rs. 35,400 includes GST and must be paid online only, and whether performance security is due in 15 or 30 days and may be issued by a commercial scheduled bank. These affect bid compliance and banking arrangements.
Please state the calendar deadline for online queries and confirm 180-day bid validity. The D+14 query rule falls after the revised pre-bid meeting if D is 17 September, and the validity schedule says 120 days while the bid form says 180.
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.
After a 30-day miss of a milestone/completion date, damages accrue at 0.05% of Contract Price per day until achievement/completion; Clause 10.3.2 states no aggregate cap and termination rights remain. On Rs. 230 crore, the stated daily rate is commercially material.
DLP is 10 years from completion. Defects generally must be cured within 15 days; if not, the Authority may rectify at contractor risk/cost and recover that cost plus 20% damages. DLP extends until identified defects are remedied.
Geotechnical data is for reference only; bidder must investigate. The contractor accepts errors/inadequacy in project information and almost all project risks, with no Contract Price or time adjustment for such errors. This is acute for a three-basement/high-rise site with variable sandy soil/weathered gneiss and possible pile solutions.
Works occur inside a secured, operational government precinct. Contractor must preserve utility continuity, restrict operational disruption, protect heritage/operational infrastructure and coordinate interfaces; ordinary interface issues do not justify time or extra payment.
Retention reaches 5% and half remains through the 10-year DLP unless replaced by enhanced bank guarantees. The Engineer/PMC may withhold estimated unperformed or defective-work value; the clause promising interest on delayed payment is deleted.
The 7.5% performance guarantee, up to 5% retention, and potentially large additional performance security for below-estimate pricing create high banking-line usage. Missing the additional-security deadline leads to summary rejection/cancellation, and late performance security attracts 0.05% of Contract Price per day.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
