All important dates as they stand after corrigenda: publication, pre-bid/clarification deadline, bid submission deadline, bid opening, and bid validity period.
Published on 04/09/2026 at 15:05 (time as printed in IREPS tender document).
No pre-bid conference is scheduled; the date is Not Applicable. No separate clarification deadline is stated.
29/09/2026 at 14:25; original or revised e-bids may be submitted only up to that time.
No guaranteed opening date/time is specified. Railway may open the tender after the due date/time, while preventing any bid after closing.
Minimum 90 days from the actual date of tender opening; a shorter validity may be treated as unresponsive. Any requested extension also requires corresponding extension of EMD validity, where relevant.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Not stated; the NIT shows INR as currency but leaves the estimated-rate field blank.
INR 0.00. Therefore no funded EMD instrument or EMD validity period applies to this tender; submission of the offer itself is treated as signing the standard bid-securing declaration.
INR 0.00.
Where applicable, 5% of contract value, capped at INR 50 lakh; under the governing SBD, contracts up to INR 25 lakh are exempt. It must be deposited within 21 days of LOA and remain valid for 60 days beyond completion of all contractual obligations.
Tender-specific term: 100% against Receipt Note (R/Note), meaning payment follows receipt and acceptance by the consignee. Payment is through the registered bank account/NEFT process, subject to contractual recoveries.
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.
At least 80% of net procurable quantity is intended for manufacturers or their authorised agents whose principal has successfully supplied the tendered item or a permitted variant during the last three financial years plus the current financial year up to tender opening: either at least 20% of the overall tender quantity against one order, or at least 30% cumulatively against multiple orders.
A manufacturer/OEM (or its authorised agent) validly approved by an applicable PU or RDSO for the tendered item is eligible for bulk/regular/entire quantity. Otherwise, up to 20% developmental quantity may be considered where manufacturing/supply capacity is demonstrated through similar-item performance or qualifying manufacturer/developmental registrations.
This is not a Railway-specific item. Traders/authorised agents must identify the manufacturer's works and submit a valid general dealership/OEM authorisation on the manufacturer's letterhead; non-submission makes the offer invalid and summarily rejectable.
MSE status is not mandatory to bid. To claim MSE benefits, the manufacturer must hold a current valid Udyam registration (or a UAM only if its acceptance date has been validly extended) and upload it; traders and agents cannot claim MSE benefits.
Every bidder must state the offered item's local-content percentage. Class-I and Class-II local suppliers must self-certify the percentage and locations of local value addition; the SBD defines the normal thresholds as minimum 50% and 20%, respectively. False declaration can lead to debarment up to two years.
Bidders must be GST-compliant and quote taxes/rates in accordance with GST law.
The bidder and its constituents must not be blacklisted or debarred by Railways or any Government of India Ministry/Department on bid submission. The bidder must proactively disclose conflicts of interest, any Code-of-Integrity transgressions in the last three years, and any applicable Central Government/procuring-organisation debarment.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India—including a qualifying member of a consortium/JV—may bid only if registered with the Competent Authority. Participation is treated as the prescribed certification; evidence of valid registration must be enclosed where applicable.
No minimum turnover, net-worth threshold, consortium size cap, JV equity floor, or tender-specific consortium agreement requirement is stated in the documents.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 958.00 kg of white transparent polythene bags, PL Code 75905220, minimum 400 mm width, minimum 600 mm length, and minimum 0.127 mm thickness.
Deliver FOR destination to LOCO STORE DEPOT BIKANER, NWR, Rajasthan. Freight/door delivery is included in the quoted destination rate.
Complete all supplies within 45 days. Tender-specific inspection agency is the consignee; any deviation from that inspection clause is summarily rejectable.
30 months after delivery. Defects discovered during that period remain subject to rejection and free repair/replacement under the IRS conditions.
The item description above is the only tender-specific technical specification provided. No separate material grade, manufacturing standard, test method, packing requirement, drawing, phased delivery schedule, installation, or AMC is specified; samples are not required unless expressly called for, and none is called for in the NIT.
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 only electronically on IREPS in a single packet. Manual offers by post, fax or in person are invalid; the system accepts no bid or attachment after 29/09/2026 14:25.
IREPS registration and a Class III Digital Signature Certificate are required. The pre-authorised registered person digitally signs the tender; this signature confirms acceptance of the tender conditions. Attached qualification evidence must be self-attested or digitally signed.
Complete the IREPS techno-commercial form (eligibility, conditions, performance, deviations, checklist and special conditions) and financial offer form. Enter basic rate, GST/taxes, freight and all other charges only in their nominated financial fields; mandatory fields marked * must be completed.
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 NIT requires 100% against Receipt Note, while the generic NWR SBD states 95% against inspection/proof of dispatch and 5% against Receipt Note (with a separate 100% rule for orders up to INR 5 lakh). The tender-specific NIT term prevails: price on the basis of no payment before consignee receipt and acceptance.
The NIT names the consignee as inspection agency and says any deviation is summarily rejectable, but SBD Clause 8.1 says trader-supplied material will be inspected at the manufacturer's premises. The tender-specific NIT instruction should prevail; bidder should nevertheless obtain written confirmation because the difference affects dispatch planning and acceptance risk.
Tender-specific eligibility permits experienced manufacturers/agents and a developmental route supported by any of several registrations, but generic SBD Clause 8.1 separately says direct manufacturers must submit an NSIC certificate and traders the principal's NSIC certificate. The more specific NIT/Section-II eligibility routes should govern, but a non-NSIC bidder should seek confirmation to avoid summary rejection.
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 specify polymer grade/type, bag construction and sealing, dimensional/thickness tolerances, sampling plan, test methods, packing/marking, and whether 958 kg is to be converted to any target number of bags. The NIT gives only minimum dimensions/thickness, colour and a kg quantity; these omissions materially affect yield, price and rejection risk.
Please disclose the estimated contract value and confirm whether SD is exempt or payable. The NIT gives no estimated value and says 5% SD 'wherever applicable', while the SBD exempts store contracts up to INR 25 lakh; this changes bid cash requirements.
Please confirm whether inspection is at LOCO STORE DEPOT BIKANER by the consignee or at the manufacturer's works for trader supplies, and identify the required pre-dispatch/receipt tests. The documents state both locations.
Please confirm that a manufacturer can qualify through the NIT's past-supply criteria or the Clause 1.1.3 Udyam/Zonal Railway/developmental routes without an NSIC certificate. Generic Clause 8.1 otherwise appears to make NSIC compulsory for every direct manufacturer and trader principal.
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 entire 958 kg must be completed within 45 days, and time is of the essence. Accepted late supply attracts LD of 0.5% of the gross value (including GST) of delayed goods per week or part-week, capped at 10% of delayed-supply value; subcontractor delay is not a valid excuse.
For goods delivered after the original delivery date, no post-date increase in GST, customs duty, other levy, price variation or foreign exchange variation is admissible, while the purchaser still receives any decrease. Price this asymmetry into any extension risk.
Payment is 100% only against Receipt Note, so no dispatch-stage payment is promised. Consignee inspection, receipt and acceptance drive the full cash conversion cycle, and contractual recoveries may be deducted.
The 30-month warranty survives inspection, acceptance and payment. On warranty rejection, repair/replacement at destination is free and due within 60 days; ordinary rejected goods may require replacement/removal within 21 days, all at supplier risk and cost.
Where SD applies, it can be forfeited in whole or part for default and replenishment can be demanded. Even exempt suppliers can face damages equal to the otherwise applicable SD. The purchaser/Government may withhold amounts, including refundable security, against claims under this or other contracts without interest.
Delay/default can cause partial or full termination and whole-SD forfeiture; purchaser may also withhold payments and record adverse performance for debarment. False qualification/debarment declarations can cause summary rejection, contract termination, SD forfeiture and business banning up to two years.
No polymer grade, test standard, bag construction, tolerance, sampling, packing or marking requirement is stated beyond minimum dimensions/thickness and colour. Combined with consignee acceptance and a 30-month warranty, this creates material interpretation and rejection risk unless clarified before bid.
