The individual system capacities will range from 11 kW to 50 kW, with a requirement to complete installation within four months of the work order. Bidders must also provide a 10-year operation and maintenance service.

Key Dates and Costs Bid Submission Deadline: November 29, 2024 Bid Opening: November 30, 2024 Tender Document Cost: Rs.11,800 (~$140) Earnest Money Deposit (EMD): 2% of the project cost Security Deposit: 5% of the work order value Eligibility Criteria Bidders must have executed at least 600 kW of rooftop solar projects in the past five years. An average annual turnover of Rs.132 million (~$1.56 million) over the best three financial years in the last five years is mandatory.
