Applicability of PVC based on original contract value is illustrated as under: “If estimated value of tender (NIT value) is Rs.55 lakhs; but value of the contract
as per contract agreement is Rs.45 laksh, then PVC shall not apply, even if the
actual final value is Rs.50 laksh or more due to variation in quantities during
execution of the contract. Thus, variation in quantities after signing of contract
agreement is not relevant for deciding whether PVC is applicable to a contract or
not”.

tender including extensions. If any, unless otherwise stated elsewhere. The quarter for
applicability of PVC shall commence from the month following the month of opening
of tender. The Price Variation shall be based on the average Price Index of the quarter
under consideration.
46A.3. Rates accepted by Railway Administration shall hold good till completion of work
and no additional individual claim shall be admissible on account of fluctuations
in market rates, increase in taxes/any other levies/tolls etc., except that

11. VARIATION IN CONTRACT QUANTITIES:-
The procedure as detailed below shall be adopted for dealing with variations in quantities
during execution of works contracts: a) The Railway reserves the right to alter the designs and drawings. If due to change of
drawing or design or any other reasons, there be variations, either increase or decrease in
quantities, payment will be made only for the actual quantities executed at the accepted
rates. If there be sufficient cause the Railway may grant extension of the date of
completion suitably. Such circumstances shall in no way affect or vitiate the contract or
alter the character thereof, or entitle the contractor to damages or compensation thereof
except as provided for in this contract.
b) The quantities of each item of work furnished in the Schedule are approximate and are
intended for the guidance of Tenderer/Contractor. In actual execution of work there may
be some increase in the quantities specified. Such variation upto 25% shall in no degree
affect the validity of the contract and it shall be performed by the contractor as provided
therein and be subjected to the same conditions, stipulations and obligations originally
and expressly included and provided for in specifications and drawings and the amount
to be paid there for shall be calculated in accordance with accepted schedule rates.
(1) Prior Finance concurrence is necessary for varying the individual quantities
beyond 25% or where the gross agreement value exceeds 25% of the agreement
value.
(2) Individual NS items in contracts shall be operated with variations of plus or minus
25% and payment would be made as per the agreement rate. For this, no Finance
concurrence would be required.
(3) In case an increase in quantity of an individual item by more than 25% of the
agreement quantity is considered unavoidable, the same shall be got executed by
floating a fresh tender. If floating a fresh tender for operating that item is
considered not practicable, quantity of that item may be operated in excess of
125% of the agreement quantity (100% i.e. the original quantity +25% i.e. quantity
over and above the original quantity) subject to the following conditions.
a) Operation of an item by more than 125% of the agreement quantity needs
the approval of an officer of the rank not less than S.A. Grade:
i) Quantities operated in excess of 125% but upto 140% of the
agreement quantity of the concerned item, shall be paid at 98% of the
rate awarded for that item in that particular tender;
ii) Quantities operated in excess of 140% but upto 150% of the
agreement quantity of the concerned item shall be paid at 96% of the
rate awarded for that item in that particular tender;
iii) Variation in quantities of individual items beyond 150% will be
prohibited and would be permitted only in exceptional unavoidable
circumstances with the concurrence of associate finance and shall be
paid at 96% of the rate awarded for that item in that particular tender
b) The variation in quantities as per the above formula will apply only to the
Individual items of the contract and not on the overall contract value.
SignSignature of the Contractor Sr.Divisional Engineer/North
S.C.Railway/Vijayawada
Page 31 of 33
c) Execution of quantities beyond 150% of the overall agreement value should
not be permitted and, if found necessary should be only through fresh
tenders or by negotiating with existing contractor, with prior personal
concurrence of FA&CAO/ FA&CAO(C) and approval of General Manager.
4. The limit for varying quantities for minor value items shall be 100% (as against
25% prescribed for other items). A minor value item for this purpose is defined as
an item whose original agreement value is less than 1% of the total original
agreement value.
5. No such quantity variation limit shall apply for foundation items.
6. As far as SSR/SOR items are concerned, the limit of 25% would apply to the
value of SSR/SOR schedule as a whole and not on individual SSR/SOR items.
However, in case of NS items, the limit of 25% would apply on the individual
items irrespective of the manner of quoting the rate (single percentage rate or
individual item rate).
7. For the tenders accepted at the Zonal Railways level, variations in the quantities
will be approved by the authority in whose powers revised value of the agreement
lies.
8. For tenders accepted by General Manager, variations upto 125% of the original
agreement value may be accepted by General Manager.
9. For tenders accepted by Board Members and Railway Ministers variations upto
110% of the original agreement value may be accepted by General Manager
10. The aspect of vitiation of tender with respect to variation in quantities should be
checked and avoided. In case of vitiation of the tender (both for increase as well as
decrease of value of contract agreement) sanction of the competent authority as per
single tender should be obtained.
11. In cases where decrease is involved during execution of contract:
a. The contract signing authority can decrease the items upto 25% of
individual item without finance concurrence.
b. For decrease beyond 25% for individual items or 25% of contract
agreement value, the approval of an officer not less than rank of S.A.
Grade may be taken, after obtaining „No claim certificate‟ from the
contractor and with finance concurrence giving detailed reasons for each
such decrease in the quantities.
c. It should be certified that the quantities proposed to be reduced will not be
required in the same work at a later stage
d. In the event of any reduction in the quantity to be executed for any reasons
whatsoever, the contractor shall not be entitled to any compensation but
shall be paid only for the actual amount of work done.
e. The contractor is bound to notify the Engineer at least seven days before the
necessity arises for the execution of any item in excess of 25% of the over
all value of the agreement.
12. In case the contractor fails to attend the meeting after being notified to do so or in
the event of no settlement being arrived at, the Railway shall be entitled to execute
the extra works by other means and the contractor shall have no claim for loss or
damage that result from such procedure
