All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Bid dated/published 24-07-2026; submission closes 08-08-2026 at 11:00:00 and bids open 08-08-2026 at 11:30:00. No separate pre-bid meeting or clarification deadline is stated; technical-evaluation clarifications are allowed for 2 days.
180 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 tender value/estimated cost is disclosed in the supplied tender documents. No tender document/participation fee is stated; the GeM bid warning treats any buyer-added tender or participation fee as invalid.
INR 36,000. Pay online through the OPGCL collection link/site and upload the receipt; alternatives stated are a bank guarantee with minimum 180-day validity, NeSL e-BG, insurance surety bond, or the Annexure-VII Bid Security Declaration. A physical BG requires its scanned copy online and hard copy directly to the Buyer within 5 working days of bid opening.
The GeM bid field specifies ePBG at 0.01% for 21 months, due within 15 days of award. This conflicts with ATC Clause 5.0 (10% of PO basic value) and GeM GTC Clause 7 (3%-5%); the configured GeM bid value should prevail because the bid disclaimer invalidates ATC clauses contradicting ePBG details, but written confirmation is essential.
90% of basic price plus full taxes/duties is payable within 30 days after receipt and final acceptance of the full quantity; the remaining 10% is released against submission of the original PBG. CRAC and online bills govern payment, and invoice submission requires a scanned GST invoice plus GST-portal payment screenshot.
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 manufacturer or an authorised dealer/channel partner/distributor/stockist/trader of conforming Coal Straight Pipes, evidenced by incorporation/factory/firm registration for a manufacturer or OEM authorisation for an intermediary.
Bidder must have directly supplied coal straight pipes of at least 500 mm diameter and 10 mm thickness to a thermal power plant of capacity greater than 210 MW within the last 5 years.
For similar Coal Straight Pipes/Coal Bend Pipes supplied directly to a reputed organisation, submit last-five-year orders meeting one of: one order at least Rs.14 Lakh; two orders each at least Rs.9 Lakh; or three orders each at least Rs.7 Lakh.
Average annual financial turnover for 2023-24, 2024-25 and 2025-26 must be Rs.18 Lakh or more. Submit audited balance sheets and P&L; if 2025-26 is unaudited, submit a registered CA turnover certificate. MSE and startup relaxation for experience/turnover is expressly ‘No’.
PAN and GST registration are mandatory. MSME/NSIC certificate is required if registered; BIS/ISI licence is required only where the offered goods are ISI-marked.
Bidder must not have been blacklisted or performance-debarred during the last five years by any Government/Public Sector Utility for similar supply, and must self-declare this. False border-country certification permits immediate rejection/termination and EMD/security forfeiture.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only if registered with the Competent Authority; the registration must be valid at bid submission and acceptance. The bidder must also undertake not to subcontract to an unregistered contractor from such a country.
Only Class-I and Class-II local suppliers may participate; non-local suppliers are ineligible. The bid also invokes MoP&NG PPLC Policy and treats local content of 20% or less as non-local, so the bidder must establish local content above 20% and submit the required certificate/undertaking.
State/Central PSUs are exempt from the qualification criteria on documentary proof. For others, OPGCL reserves broad discretion to assess capability/capacity and restrict or accept reputed branded manufacturers/vendors.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 100 metres of MS straight coal pipe for the 210 MW BHEL-make boiler fuel (coal) firing system at Banharpali, Jharsuguda. The accepted revised dimension is D559 x 12.7 mm, replacing D558 x 12.5 mm.
The attached drawing is only a tender sample. After award, the supplier must visit OPGC for final dimensions and provide compatibility/fitment guarantee; detailed design drawings must be submitted within 15 days of award and approved before fabrication.
Deliver within 120 days from LOI/PO. OPGCL may conduct PDI at the supplier site through an approved TPI/company representative or mutually at OPGC; external inspection charges are borne by the supplier. Buyer-site inspection follows delivery, and rejected material must be replaced free within 30 days of intimation.
Buyer may vary bid quantity by up to 25% at contract placement and increase contracted quantity by up to 25% during the contract at contracted rates. Supply is free-delivery-at-site including loading/unloading, with all inspection and applicable delivery costs priced in.
Guarantee merchantability and fitness against manufacturing defects/bad workmanship for 12 months from use or 18 months from supply, whichever is earlier, plus 3 months for lodging a claim.
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 GeM as a Two Packet Bid (technical and financial); financial document is required. Bid-related representations must also be made only on GeM, not by letter/email.
Upload signed and sealed acceptance of the Scope of Work, BOQ and ATC. The prescribed Bid Security Declaration must be signed by a duly authorised person and bear the corporate seal where appropriate. No DSC class is specified in the supplied documents.
If a physical bid-security instrument is used, upload its scan with the online bid and deliver the hard copy directly to the Buyer within 5 working days of bid opening. The EMD BG proforma is addressed to OPGCL, IB Thermal Power Station, At/PO Banharpali, Dist-Jharsuguda-768234. NeSL e-BGs are treated at par with physical BGs subject to 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.
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.
Three incompatible requirements appear: GeM bid 0.01% for 21 months; ATC 10% of PO basic value through warranty; GTC permits only 3%-5% and requires two months beyond all obligations. The configured GeM bid value of 0.01%/21 months should prevail because the bid disclaimer invalidates ATC terms contradicting ePBG details; obtain written confirmation before pricing/award.
The bid title/category and initial BOQ wording say D558 x 12.5 mm, while the technical specification and ATC BOQ state BHEL's revised D559 x 12.7 mm is accepted. The explicit revised specification D559 x 12.7 mm prevails, subject to final site dimensions and approved fabrication drawing.
ATC Clause 15 points to Annexure-IX, and the checklist points to Annexure-VII; the actual land-border form is Annexure-VIII on page 17, while Annexure-VII is the Bid Security Declaration. Use Annexure-VIII/page 17.
ATC caps LD at 5% of undelivered-material cost, whereas GTC allows 5% of total contract value and up to 10% for inordinate delay. ATC Clause 16 says ATC supersedes GTC, so the specific ATC cap should apply; confirm because GTC's higher inordinate-delay cap materially changes exposure.
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 the applicable performance-security amount, instrument and release/validity terms: GeM says 0.01% for 21 months, ATC says 10% through warranty, and GTC caps it at 5%. Also confirm whether the 10% payment retention is released against a 0.01% ePBG.
Please issue/confirm the dimensional schedule, tolerances, pipe lengths, end preparation, welding/fabrication standard, and acceptance criteria for pricing. The tender changes D558 x 12.5 to D559 x 12.7 but says the drawing is only a sample and final dimensions follow an after-award site visit.
Please identify approved TPI agencies, inspection/test scope, hold points, test certificates, acceptance standard and likely fee basis. The supplier bears external TPI charges, but no inspection/test plan or standard is supplied.
Please state the exact minimum local-content threshold and governing policy/certificate. The bid bars non-local suppliers under DPIIT MII while separately modifying the clause to MoP&NG PPLC and treating <=20% as non-local.
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.
Pricing is required before final dimensions are frozen: the drawing is only a sample, the bidder must measure after award, submit drawings within 15 days, and guarantee fitment. Dimensional rework/compatibility risk sits substantially with the supplier.
Delivery is 120 days. LD is 0.5% of undelivered-material cost per week/part, capped by ATC at 5%; after delay beyond 10 weeks or less depending on need, Buyer may cancel and procure elsewhere at supplier risk, recover extra cost, and draw PBG. GTC separately states up to 10% for inordinate delay, creating unresolved higher exposure.
Supplier funds third-party pre-dispatch inspection. Buyer may still inspect/reject at site; nonconforming material must be replaced free within 30 days. GeM GTC additionally permits ground rent/warehousing charges and disposal at seller risk if rejected goods are not removed.
Performance-security quantum is contradictory. Payment is back-ended: 90% only after full-quantity receipt/final acceptance, while 10% requires original PBG; no interest is payable on EMD/security. PBG may be forfeited for delivery, replacement, warranty or risk-purchase failures.
Buyer may terminate for broad defaults including any material breach, delivery inability, delayed replacement, insolvency or misrepresentation. OPGCL may ban/blacklist/suspend the vendor and communicate action to other PSUs/government bodies; GeM may also forfeit security and debar.
Buyer can decrease or increase award quantity by 25% and later increase contracted quantity by another 25% at fixed rates, creating material volume and price-escalation exposure.
The bid explicitly selects no arbitration and no mediation. Disputes are governed by Indian law and exclusive courts at the Buyer's principal place/registered address, leaving litigation as the formal route if amicable resolution fails.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
