EMD/ Bid securities of unsuccessful bidders will be returned upon award of Contract. However,
EMD of the successful Bidder will be returned upon the Bidder's acceptance of PO/ signing the
Contract and furnishing the PBG.
The EMD may be forfeited:
If a Bidder withdraws its bid during the period of Bid Validity or does any breach of
tendering terms and conditions, or
If a bidder modifies his bid on his own.
In case of a successful Bidder, if the Bidder fails, within the specified period:
i. To submit the order acceptance.
ii. To furnish the PBG.
42.0 MODIFICATION AND WITHDRAWAL OF BIDS:
a) The Bidder may modify / withdraw its Bid prior to the due date prescribed for submission of
Bids.
b) No bid shall be modified subsequent to the deadline for submission of bids.
c) No bid shall be allowed to be withdrawn in the interval between the deadline for submission
of bids and the expiration of the period of bid validity specified by the bidder. Withdrawal of a
bid during this interval shall result in the forfeiture of bidder‟s bid security.
43.0 EXAMINATION OF BIDS AND DETERMINATION OF RESPONSIVENESS:
a. The Owner/EIL will examine the bids to determine whether they are complete, whether any
computational errors have been made, whether the documents have been properly signed,
and whether the bids are generally in order.
f) Prior to the detailed evaluation, the Owner/EIL will determine whether each bid is of
acceptable quality, is generally complete and is responsive to the RFQ Documents. For the
purposes of this determination, a responsive bid is one that conforms to all the terms,
conditions and specifications of the RFQ Documents without deviations, objections,
conditionality or reservations.
c. Bidder shall not be allowed to submit any Price Implication or Revised Price after submission
of Bid, unless there is change in the stipulations of the RFQ Document and such changes are
incorporated through an Amendment. In case Exceptions and Deviations submitted by Bidder
along with Bid are not considered as acceptable and no Amendment is issued, then in such a
case the Bidders would be required to withdraw such Exceptions/Deviations in favour of
stipulations of the RFQ document and Bidders would not be eligible for submission of Price
Implication/Revised Price, failing which such Bid(s) shall be considered as non responsive
and rejected.
d. The Owner/EIL determination of a bid‟s responsiveness is to be based on the contents of the
bid itself without recourse to extrinsic evidence. If a bid is not responsive, it will be rejected by
the Owner/EIL, and may not subsequently be made responsive by the bidder by correction of
the nonconformity.
44.0 OWNER’S RIGHT TO ACCEPT ANY BID AND TO REJECT ANY BID:
The Owner/EIL reserves the right to accept or reject any bid, and to annul the bidding process and
reject all bids at any time prior to award of the order without thereby incurring any liability to the

for Owner/EIL‟s action.
