Page 26: Northern Coalfields Limited3.imimg.com/data3/SK/GE/HTT-1495/1495_2015-04-21-12-03-35_142… · 21/04/2015  · Northern Coalfields Limited invites Tenders through on-line bidding

Tax on the works will be computed automatically in the BOQ sheet based on prefix business

log in and the option selected by the bidder with regard to his Service Tax status.

However, such duties, taxes, levies etc. which is notified after the last date of submission of

tender and / or any increase/decrease over the rate existing on the last date of submission of

tender shall be reimbursed/deducted by the company on production of documentary evidence

in support of payment actually made to the concerned authorities.

The company reserves the right to deduct/withhold any amount towards taxes, levies, etc. and

to deal with such amount in terms of the provisions of the Statute or in terms of the direction

of any statutory authority and the company shall only provide with certificate towards such

deduction and shall not be responsible for any reason whatsoever.

The scheme of the legislation of service tax clearly states that if a taxable service is

performed, the service provider is liable to pay service tax as per Rule-6 of the Service Tax

Rules. The Services Tax Rules also places an obligation on those liable to pay service tax to

raise bill in the manner as prescribed in the Rule 4A of the Service Tax Rules. The availment

of CENVAT credit by the service provider on his inputs has nothing to do with his obligation

to pay service tax and his right to claim and recover service tax from the person who avails

the service. Thus, there is no obligation in service tax law cast upon the service availer (NCL)

to verify whether the service provider has paid the service tax claimed from the service

availer.

32. Cost of Bidding: The bidder shall bear all costs associated with the preparation and

submission of his bid and the Employer will in no case be responsible and liable for those

and he/they shall intimate officially of having completed the work as per contract.

the technical/ supervisory personnel required for execution of the work.

38. Change in Constitution of the Contracting Agency: Prior approval in writing of the company

shall be obtained before any change is made in the constitution of the contracting agency,

otherwise it will be treated as a breach of Contract.

39. Canvassing in connection with the tenders in any shape or form is strictly prohibited and

deletion from any such list and will submit proposals in this regard to the Engineer-in -

Charge/Designated Officer in charge for approval well in advance so as not to impede the

progress of work. Such approval of the Engineer in Charge / Designated Officer in Charge

will not relieve the contractor from any of his obligations, duties and responsibilities under

the contract.

42. In case the contractor enters into any litigation, such action should have to be taken in a court

of law with jurisdiction over the place where the subject work is to be executed.

43. If the bid of the successful bidder is seriously unbalanced in relation to the estimate of the

cost of work to be performed under the contract, the company may require the bidder to

After evaluation of the price analysis, the company may require that the amount of the

performance security/security deposit is increased at the expense of the successful bidder to a

of the successful bidder under the contract.

5.2 No document presented by the bidder after the closing date & time of the bid will be taken

committee as clarification from some or all the bidders to arrive at complete agreement as

work/supply as per the provisions of NIT. This should however be purely technical in nature

technical/commercial/statutory/legal nature), which has no bearing financially on the contract

and which does not seek any change in technical specification given in the bid document. If a

bidder offers a rebate unilaterally after the closing date & time of the bid, it will not be taken

into account for evaluating purposes by the Tender Committee, but if that bidder emerges as

the lowest evaluated, the rebate offered will be taken into account for determination of the

total offer.

cost of work to be performed under the contract, the company may require the bidder to

produce detailed price analysis for any or all items of the Bill of quantities to demonstrate the

internal consistency of these prices with the construction method and the schedule proposed.

performance security/security deposit be increased at the expense of the successful bidder to a

level sufficient to protect the company against financial loss in the event of default on the part

of the successful bidder under the contract.

6. Price Justification

Work will be awarded to the lowest bidder (L1) without post tender negotiations if the rates

are reasonable. Generally post-tender negotiations will be avoided. In case the lowest tender

is found to be unworkable or unbalanced or impractical, price justification may be sought

from the L-1 bidder only to arrive at reasonable rate. If the L-1 bidder offers discount

unilaterally while submitting price justification, this will be taken in to consideration for

determination of total final offered value the decision of the company regarding

reasonableness of the quoted rates will be final & binding on the bidders. Operation of this

clause will be regulated as per prevailing guidelines of the Government of India or their

authorities concerned.

7. Acceptance of Offer:

Letter of Acceptance is an acceptance of offer by the company and it need not be accepted by

the tenderer. But the tenderer should acknowledge the receipt of the order within 15 days of

mailing of work order and any delay in acknowledging the receipt will be treated as a breach

of contract and compensation for the loss caused by such breach will be declared by the

company by forfeiting EMD.

another.

hindrance and a dispute arises then the matter would be referred to the EIC and or the next

higher authority whose decision would be final & binding on the contractor & the decision to

j) The contractor shall request the company in writing for extension of time within 15 days of

days of the hindrance occurring in execution of the work and the department wants to

continue with the work beyond the stipulated date of completion for reason of the work

having been unavoidably hindered, the Engineer-in-charge can grant extension of time even

in the absence of application from the contractor. Such extension of time granted by the
