Bidders are required to submit earnest money deposits (EMDs) ranging from Rs 0.89 million to Rs 1.2 million depending on the tender, with the expected project costs varying between Rs 148 million and Rs 174.08 million.

The systems will be installed on building terraces, platform sheds, and pathways, and bidders must also supply associated components such as inverters, UV-protected flexible conduits, copper DC cables, long barrel lugs, bus bars, and data logger facilities. The completion deadline for each project is within six months from the award, with regular cleaning of the solar systems every 15 days.

Additionally, bidders must meet specific requirements regarding their average annual contractual turnover and demonstrate experience in similar projects. For tenders above Rs 5 million, bidders need to have completed relevant projects over the past seven years, with conditions on the value and number of such projects.
