Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
No estimated tender value is printed. Quote the total GeM rate inclusive of TPI, packing/forwarding, freight up to MRPL, transit insurance and GST.
INR 13,84,000. Acceptable forms are EFT (NEFT/RTGS/other internet banking), BG/e-BG, account-payee DD, insurance surety bond, and the GeM bid also permits surety bond. A BG must remain valid for 180 days from bid closing. No interest is payable.
5% of order value including taxes/duties. The tender-specific NIT requires submission within 10 days of PO; forms include EFT, BG/e-BG, DD or insurance surety bond. The fixed GeM ePBG duration is 16 months, but MRPL GPC additionally requires coverage through supply and warranty plus a 3-month claim period; bidders should obtain clarification and budget for the longer requirement.
100% payment within 10 days after issue of the consignee receipt-cum-acceptance certificate (CRAC) and online bill submission. TReDS is the preferred mode for eligible registered MSME sellers.
No tender document or bid-participation fee is specified in the tender documents; GeM states that an ATC asking such a fee would invalidate the bid.
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 sodium-chlorite manufacturer or its authorized dealer/channel partner. A non-manufacturer must submit a tender-specific manufacturer authorization and remains responsible for guarantees/services.
Must have supplied at least 6,30,000 kg of sodium chlorite in drums, conforming to the technical specification, under one or multiple POs to Indian refinery/petrochemical/industries during one continuous 12-month period in any of the last 5 years ending the last day of the month before tender invitation.
Submit PO copies plus invoice, or LR with payment proof, or completion certificate, or satisfactory-performance certificate. To receive up to 100% quantity if no bidder matches L1, L1 must evidence up to 10,50,000 kg; 6,30,000 kg supports 60%.
The final GeM bid field says no MSE relaxation for experience/turnover and no start-up relaxation. The attached NIT nevertheless offers MSEs up to 15% relaxation on past experience; because GeM declares ATCs contradicting its MSE field invalid, bidders should qualify on the unrelaxed 6,30,000 kg unless Buyer formally clarifies/amends.
Bidder must accept the technical specification, guaranteed parameters and packing requirements in toto without deviation and submit a self-declaration. It must also declare that each consignment will carry a quality certificate from a NABL-accredited laboratory.
Only Class-I and Class-II local suppliers may bid. Minimum local content is 50% and 20% respectively; local content less than or equal to 20% is treated as non-local. Bidder must submit an authorized-signatory undertaking meeting mandatory minimum local content.
MSE purchase preference is available only to the manufacturer/OEM with valid Udyam credentials validated on GeM; traders/resellers are excluded. Eligible MSEs within L1+15% may match L1 for 40% quantity.
Bidder must not be holiday-listed/blacklisted by MRPL or MoPNG or debarred by DoE during tendering. False/fake/incorrect documents can cause rejection, security forfeiture, PO cancellation and holiday listing.
Consortium or joint bids are not accepted. Manufacturer and its authorized dealer cannot both bid for the same item; if both do, only the manufacturer's bid is considered.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only when registered with the DPIIT-constituted Competent Authority and must submit the prescribed undertaking/evidence.
Quote firm prices only in INR, meet applicable statutory requirements, submit EMD unless exempt, do not place prices in the technical bid, and do not deviate from PQC or tender-specific conditions.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Supply 17,50,000 kg of sodium chlorite (NaClO2), item code 3000000773, in 200 kg or 250 kg drums other than blue colour.
25% (+/-1%) solution; molecular weight 90.5 g/mol; specific gravity at 25°C 1.24-1.25 g/ml; pH at 25°C 12-14. Material below 24% concentration in MRPL analysis is rejected.
Use new drums with two ribs at top and bottom, not blue. Label certificate-of-analysis details, shelf life and batch number. Product must have at least 12 months usable shelf life remaining on supply.
Deliver the total quantity to MRPL, Kuthethoor PO, Via Katipalla, Mangaluru-575030 over 365 days. Procurement is as-and-when-required; each delivery instruction must be dispatched within 15 days, with LR date used for PRS.
Seller lab conducts pre-dispatch inspection and MRPL lab conducts post-receipt inspection; MRPL laboratory results are the sole acceptance criterion. Material test certificate accompanies supply.
Buyer may increase or decrease bid quantity by up to 25% at award and may increase contracted quantity by up to another 25% during the contract at contracted rates, with calculated additional delivery time.
The commercial scope is supply of goods only; bid price includes all cost components identified in the tender.
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 online on GeM in two packets: Part I techno-commercial/unpriced bid with all required documents, and Part II price bid. Any price in Part I, or combining the two, causes rejection.
English-language documents; digitally sign, or sign and company-seal, the tender/ATC/annexures/amendments. Serially number all technical-bid pages and include an index. Corrections must be attested under full signature. No digital-signature class is specified; GeM e-sign is treated at par with digital signature.
For an EMD by DD/BG, upload the scan/proof and send the original directly to Materials Department, MRPL, Kuthethoor PO, Via Katipalla, Mangaluru-575030. Because the NIT rejects non-receipt by bid closing while GeM says within five days, use the stricter 22-09-2026 15:00 deadline unless clarified.
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 field says no MSE relaxation, while NIT offers up to 15% relaxation on past experience. GeM's disclaimer invalidates ATCs contradicting the bid's MSE field; therefore use the unrelaxed 6,30,000 kg requirement unless amended/clarified.
NIT rejects non-receipt of original BG/DD by bid closing, but GeM ATC allows DD hardcopy within 5 days after bid end/opening. NIT says stricter terms prevail; use 22-09-2026 15:00 for physical original.
NIT requires BG within 10 days of PO, whereas GeM/GPC allow 15 days after award/order. The tender-specific, stricter NIT value prevails: 10 days.
GeM fixes ePBG at 16 months; MRPL GPC requires validity through supply and warranty/guarantee plus a 3-month claim period. Since MRPL GPC is stated to prevail over varying GeM terms and the stricter term applies, provide coverage through the entire supply/warranty plus claim period; seek portal-compatible confirmation before bidding.
MRPL GPC's general supply-payment clauses use 15 days, while the GeM bid and NIT specify 10 days after CRAC/acceptance. The bid expressly says this supersedes GTC and the tender-specific 10-day term applies.
GPC says Owner covers transit risk unless otherwise specified, but the NIT expressly includes transit insurance in bidder's GeM price. The specific NIT pricing instruction prevails; bidder bears and prices transit insurance.
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 MSE manufacturers must meet 6,30,000 kg or receive the NIT's 15% past-experience relaxation, because the GeM field says “No” and the disclaimer invalidates contrary MSE ATCs.
Please confirm whether original DD/BG must reach MRPL by bid closing or within five days after bid end/opening; bidders should otherwise follow the earlier deadline.
Please specify the exact expiry and claim dates accepted for PBG/ePBG. GeM states 16 months, while GPC requires supply plus warranty/guarantee plus a 3-month claim period, potentially longer over the 365-day delivery window.
Please confirm whether 17,50,000 kg is a firm committed quantity, the expected DI lot sizes/frequency, and maximum monthly drawal. The bid is 365 days/as-and-when-required with 15-day dispatches and also permits substantial option quantities, materially affecting capacity and inventory pricing.
Please provide sampling, test method, retest/umpire-lab and rejection/replacement procedure for concentration/pH/specific gravity. MRPL lab is the sole acceptance criterion, while the bid selects no arbitration or mediation, creating material rejection/payment risk.
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.
PRS is 0.5% of PO/contract value per week or part, capped at 5%; if partial supply does not meet operating need, it can apply to full PO value. MRPL may also procure elsewhere and recover price difference/additional expense.
The full 17,50,000 kg is on an as-and-when-required 365-day arrangement, each DI requiring dispatch within 15 days; Buyer may vary bid quantity +/-25% and add up to 25% contracted quantity. This creates production, drum and inventory readiness exposure.
MRPL lab results alone govern acceptance; concentration below 24% is rejected. Bidder bears replacement/removal costs, and unremoved rejected goods attract handling/storage at 5% of value per month or part.
5% security/performance cover can be forfeited for execution or warranty failure and may need to run through supply, warranty and a 3-month claim period. Warranty is 12 months after installation/commissioning or 18 months from shipment, whichever earlier; replaced parts restart for 12 months.
Payment follows CRAC and online bill submission; MRPL may withhold if compliant GST invoice/payment proof or required drawings/data/documents are absent. GST reimbursement is actual/applicable rate, whichever lower, capped at quoted GST percentage.
False or unmet local-content declaration can trigger a predetermined penalty of 10% and business banning; local-content certificate is required with every invoice.
Price is firm and the GeM quote includes TPI, packing, freight, transit insurance and GST. Errors in tax classification/applicability and later non-statutory costs remain bidder risk.
Buyer may terminate for material breach, inability/delay in delivery, failure to replace defects, insolvency or misrepresentation. Bid details select no arbitration and no mediation, increasing direct dispute-enforcement risk.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
