Turnover turnover for the last three financial

years were financially impacted by


COVID-19, and recognizing the
intense market competition
wherein several consultants are
providing quality services on
competitive rates, we kindly
request that the turnover
requirement be reduced to INR

be justified given the challenging
circumstances and would support
the participation of quality
consultants providing competitive
and exceptional services.

include Category A bidders while
deciding the list of eligible bidders in
Category B.

This measure will protect the interests


of Category B bidders and promote a
healthy, competitive environment
across all project categories.
