Financial Qualification Criteria

An important point for bidders and readers of the tender is that the provided NIT does not prescribe a minimum average annual turnover requirement or a minimum net-worth requirement.

The NIT's qualification section focuses on similar-work experience rather than a stated turnover or net-worth threshold. Therefore, SkillCouncils.com should not publish an assumed turnover or net-worth figure for this tender.

Tender Fee and EMD Details

Tender Fee

Tender fee amount is not specified in the provided NIT.

The tender document itself states that the bid documents can be seen and downloaded from the CPWD websites free of cost. This should not automatically be interpreted as confirmation that no separate e-tender processing/platform charge applies.

The NIT refers to an e-Tender processing fee in the context of rejection/refund provisions, but does not state an amount in the provided document.

EMD

EMD: ₹14,715

The EMD is payable in favour of:

Executive Engineer, Lucknow Central Division-I, CPWD, Lucknow.

Important Tender Dates

*The accompanying CPWD tender-summary HTML records the tender documents as uploaded on 22 September 2026. Since the NIT itself does not expressly label this as the "publishing date," it is more accurate for a public website to describe it as the document upload date shown on the CPWD tender record, rather than definitively calling it the publication date.

The CPWD tender record identifies the bid closing date/time as 29/09/2026 15:00 and the single-bid opening as 29/09/2026 15:30. It also states that the pre-bid meeting is Not Applicable.

Important Compliance Points for Bidders

Original EMD is important

The tender requires the original EMD to be deposited with the designated CPWD office within the bid-submission period. The receipt must also be uploaded online.

Missing documents can lead to rejection

Joint ventures are not accepted

The eligibility section expressly excludes joint ventures.

Vehicle age/registration requirements should be checked carefully

The NIT contains vehicle-related requirements concerning BS-VI classification and registration date, while the additional conditions also prescribe vehicle-age requirements. Bidders should read the complete vehicle conditions and ensure that the proposed vehicle complies with all applicable provisions before submitting the bid.

No turnover or net-worth threshold stated

There is no stated minimum average annual turnover or net-worth figure in the qualification provisions reviewed for this NIT. Bidders should therefore rely on the actual tender document rather than generic CPWD qualification assumptions.
