The documents do not state a separate bid-opening date or time.
Offer validity is 90 days from tender opening; any offered rebate is also valid for 90 days or any agreed extension.
Tender value or estimated cost, EMD/bid security (amount, acceptable forms, validity), tender document fees, performance security, and key payment terms.
Advertised value is ₹222,188,832.08. Bidding is single-rate, Above/Below/Par, ranked lowest to highest.
EMD is ₹4,443,800.00. It may be paid through the IREPS e-payment gateway or furnished as a bank guarantee from a scheduled commercial bank; DIPP-recognized Startups are exempt and Labour Cooperative Societies submit 50%. A BG must remain valid for 90 days beyond bid validity.
Tender document cost is NIL / ₹0.00. The generic booklet clause says fees, when applicable, are paid online; drawings attached with the tender may attract ₹200 per plan/drawing.
Successful bidder must provide PG equal to 5% of original contract value within 21 days of LOA and before contract signing. Extension up to 60 days may be allowed with 12% p.a. penal interest after day 21; failure by day 60 can terminate the contract. PG validity is completion date plus 60 days and must be extended with time extensions.
Security Deposit is 5% of contract value. Bid security is retained/encashed as part SD; balance may be paid in cash/TDR/BG or recovered at 6% from bills. SD BG validity runs through the maintenance period plus 60 days; refund follows final payment, final supplementary agreement/no-claim certification, and maintenance certificate.
On-account payments are based on certified measurements, subject to deductions and 6% retention until SD reaches 5%; payment is electronic to the contractor's bank account. Mobilization advance is expressly not applicable. GST non-compliance may hold payments until records and Railway ITC are verified.
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.
During the last 7 years ending the last day of the month before invitation, complete/substantially complete either 3 similar works each ≥30%, 2 each ≥40%, or 1 ≥60% of advertised tender value; for composite works the same thresholds apply component-wise. ‘Substantially completed’ means ≥90% of present contract value paid, no contractor-default termination initiated, and a credential certificate not older than 60 days from invitation.
Similar work is any civil work including buildings/structures, pipelines, tanks, foundation treatment in railway embankment/cutting, earthwork, platform covers, bore wells, level-crossing works and cement-concrete apron works. Government/PSU certificates qualify; qualifying listed-company certificates require the supporting work order, BOQ, CA-certified bill-wise receipts, TDS certificates and final/last paid bill.
Minimum average annual contractual turnover is V/N or V, whichever is less, where V is advertised value in crore and N is completion years. With V ₹22.218883208 crore and N=1 year, the threshold is V: ₹22.218883208 crore average annual contractual payments over the prior 3 financial years, evidenced by CA-certified audited balance sheets/CA certificate.
Available bid capacity must equal or exceed the total bid value: [A × N × 2] − 0.33 × N × B. A is the maximum construction-work value executed/payment received in any one of the previous 3 financial years or current year up to invitation; B is existing commitments plus balance ongoing/awarded-not-started work. CA verification and a NIL statement where applicable are mandatory; omission causes summary rejection.
JV is allowed; tender-specific NIT caps it at 3 members. Lead member must hold at least 51%; other members at least 20% each for up to 3 members. Lead/JV must meet the principal technical criterion; each non-lead member not otherwise qualifying must have one similar work of at least 10% of tender/component value. Lead financial capacity must be at least 51%, aggregate JV capacity must meet turnover and bid capacity, and no member may bid separately or in another JV.
Bidder must disclose its legal form and submit attested constitution and PAN. Partnership firms must pre-exist submission, be registered or have a notarized deed, and hold PAN/TAN in the firm's name. The signatory/agent must have a duly stamped and notarized/magistrate-authenticated power of attorney unless authority already arises from the governing instrument/resolution.
Bidder and applicable constituents must not be blacklisted/debarred by Railways or any Government of India Ministry/Department on bid date. False/forged/incorrect information can forfeit bid security, reject/terminate the bid or contract, forfeit PG/SD and lead to banning. Integrity violations can also cause exclusion, cancellation, recovery, debarment for at least one year and criminal/disciplinary action.
A bidder from a country sharing a land border with India is eligible only if registered with the competent DPIIT Registration Committee and must enclose evidence with Annexure V.
What is being procured: the work, supplies or services, deliverables and quantities, locations, phases, completion or delivery timelines, applicable standards, and notable exclusions.
Civil development of Track Machine Sidings and associated infrastructure at Lasalgaon, Kajgaon, Dhule, Bhadli, Bodwad, Paras and Borgaon under IRPSM ID 01.01.31.25.3.10.005, WP 2025-26 PH-31.
BOQ includes station earthwork; one precast Track Machine hut at each of the 7 locations; 3 precast Gang Huts at each location (21 total); pathways/approach roads; a Borgaon side drain; and water tanks at Kajgaon, Bhadli, Paras and Borgaon.
Seven location-specific electrical estimates cover electrification of the Track Machine Sidings at Lasalgaon, Kajgaon, Dhule, Bhadli, Bodwad, Paras and Borgaon, including supply, erection, testing and commissioning items detailed in the BOQ/electrical booklet.
Completion period is 12 months. After completion, the contractor must maintain the work for 24 months and rectify defects, imperfections, shrinkages or faults at its own cost.
BOQ, special conditions, tender technical specifications and drawings precede GCC and standard specifications. Work is governed by IR GCC April 2022 as corrected, IRUSS/Indian Railway unified specifications, applicable CPWD specifications, Central Railway schedules, IR specifications/guidelines and relevant BIS codes; item footnotes override special conditions.
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 through www.ireps.gov.in under the two-packet system; manual offers are not allowed. Technical eligibility uploads open with the technical bid, separate from the financial packet.
Every page of credential/supporting copies must be self-attested or digitally signed by the bidder/authorized representative; self-attestation includes signature, stamp and date on each page. Tender documents must be signed by a legally competent person.
If EMD is furnished by BG, upload its scan on IREPS and deliver the original in person to Dispatch Section, DRM(W) BSL before the bid-closing date, expressly excluding the last submission day. Seal and mark the envelope with project identification, bidder name/address and bid due date; mismatch or late/non-submission causes rejection.
Ensure uploaded files open correctly; corrupted/unopenable documents cause summary rejection.
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.
Published 30/07/2026, the corrigendum adds mandatory compliance with the four labour codes, monthly wages within 7 days of the next month, wage slips attached to bills, appointment letters, statutory welfare facilities, grievance redressal and portal updates. It introduces deductions of ₹50 per staff per day for missing PPE and, separately for missing mobile toilets or drinking water, ₹2,000 per instance or number of labourers × ₹30, whichever is higher. Bidder action: price and plan site welfare/PPE, payroll evidence and labour-portal administration for all seven sites.
No date, estimated value, EMD, completion period, eligibility threshold or submission mechanics were amended. Final values remain: close 18/08/2026 15:00 IST; value ₹222,188,832.08; EMD ₹4,443,800; 90-day offer validity; 12-month completion; plus Corrigendum 1 labour conditions and penalties.
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 work title lists seven locations including Bodwad, but BOQ Schedule A5 labels the fifth station earthwork again as Bhadli; later BOQ schedules separately identify Bodwad huts/pathways. The BOQ label is specific but internally inconsistent, so no reliable station assignment can be selected without clarification.
The tender-specific NIT permits a maximum of 3 JV members, while GCC allows up to 5 where work involves more than one department; this tender contains civil and electrical schedules. The specific NIT value of 3 should prevail over the generic GCC rule.
The table says bids ‘Below 0–5% (inclusive)’ require Nil additional PG, then says ‘Below 5%’ require 5%, which overlaps the first row and omits a clear lower threshold. There is no later tender-specific clarification; seek written correction before pricing a below-estimate bid.
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 Schedule A5 is intended for Bodwad (rather than a second Bhadli earthwork schedule), and issue corrected station code, BOQ description and quantities. This affects site investigation, haulage and earthwork pricing.
Please issue an unambiguous slab table for additional performance guarantee on below-advertised-cost bids, because the two printed rows overlap at/below 5% and do not state the second discount range.
Please confirm the exact calendar date/time and full postal/room address for the original EMD BG. The clause says delivery before closing while ‘excluding the last date’, which appears to require delivery by 17/08/2026 but gives no time or complete address; late delivery causes summary rejection.
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 contractor must deliver seven dispersed sites in 12 months. Contractor-caused extension attracts LD selected by the Engineer at 0.05%–0.30% of contract value per week/part, capped at 5%; continued failure can forfeit SD and rescind the contract.
Railway may enlarge, reduce, relocate, alter or omit works without compensation beyond payment for actual approved work. Bidder is bound at agreed rates up to 25% item variation; quantities above 125% are paid at reduced percentages, and Railway may reduce scope without claim.
Bidder funds 5% PG plus 5% SD, accepts 6% bill retention until SD is complete, receives only measured/certified on-account payments, and has no mobilization advance. GST reporting failure can hold payment; SD release waits through final settlement and the 24-month maintenance obligation.
Corrigendum 1 creates recurring per-day/per-instance deductions for PPE, mobile toilets and drinking water, plus payroll/appointment-letter/wage-slip and portal-update administration. These obligations should be resourced per site and embedded in subcontract terms.
Bidder is deemed to have inspected each site and priced all encountered conditions. The discrepancy clause shifts subsequently discovered tender errors to the successful tenderer with no later claim, heightening the A5 location ambiguity risk.
A graduate engineer is required for work costing ₹200 lakh and above; failure costs ₹40,000 per month or part. Exaggerated/false measurements of at least 5% of claimed gross bill trigger LD of 10% on first occurrence and 15% thereafter, plus withdrawal of contractor-measurement/provisional-payment facility.
Prior Chief Engineer approval and a formal enforceable agreement are required. Subcontracted works cannot exceed 40% of contract price, while the contractor must execute at least 60% directly; JV lead-member direct execution is stated as at least 30%. Subcontractors above ₹50 lakh need qualifying similar experience and must not be banned.
The inviting authority and relevant contacts: office, person, designation, address, phone and email — and which address receives physical submissions, if any.
Inviting authority is DRM(W) Bhusawal, Central Railway, acting for the President of India; the contract agreement is executed through DRM(W) Bhusawal.
Original bid-security BGs are delivered in person to the Dispatch/Despatch Section of DRM(W) BSL. The beneficiary is Sr.DFM BSL, Central Railway, acting through DRM(W) BSL. No named person, phone or bidder-contact email is stated in the tender documents reviewed.
