Successful bidders would need to furnish a performance bank guarantee amounting to Rs 2.35 million per MW for the solar component and Rs 24 million per MW for the wind component.

Additional requirements included a success charge of Rs 100,000 per MW and a payment security deposit of Rs 0.02 per kWh.

Furthermore, bidders were required to have achieved a minimum annual turnover of Rs 9.02 million per MW of quoted capacity during the last financial year. They also needed to exhibit an internal resource generation capability equivalent to at least Rs 1.8 million per MW of quoted capacity as of the previous financial year's conclusion. Lastly, bidders must secure an approval letter from lending institutions committing a line of credit of at least Rs 2.25 million per MW of quoted capacity to meet the project's working capital requirements.
