Plot 27, MVP Colony, Visakhapatnam-530017

NIT No.: JA/2026/CW/001

Dear Sir/Madam,

We are pleased to inform you that, following review by the Tender Scrutiny Committee, your bid has been adjudged the effective L1 for the captioned tender.

Award details

• Bidder: M/s Comprehensive Standard Builders JV (Premier Coastal + Northern Engineering + Southern Surveys)
• Bid amount: ₹117.97 crore
• Premium vs ECV: -6.00%
• Tender method: Item Rate (lowest bid wins among QUALIFIED)

Effective L1 derivation

The raw L1 bidder was M/s Abnormally Low Bidders Pvt Ltd at ₹77.81 crore (premium -38.00%). Per CVC norms on Abnormally Low Bids (ALB), the raw L1 was flagged as ALB and required to submit cost justification (a separate ALB_JUSTIFICATION letter has been issued). Pending that review, the effective L1 falls to the next non-ALB, non-cartel-suspect bidder — your bid.

Rationale (verbatim from ComparativeStatement):

L1 (M/s Abnormally Low Bidders Pvt Ltd) ALB-rejected per CVC norms; cartel-suspect bidders (bid_synth_profile_b6, bid_synth_profile_b7) referred to committee; first non-skipped bidder in ranking = M/s Comprehensive Standard Builders JV (Premier Coastal + Northern Engineering + Southern Surveys).
