The eligibility requirements include being a registered entity and possessing a minimum of 2 years of past experience in supplying coated paper and board. Additionally, businesses seeking MSE or startup exemptions must provide supporting documents for evaluation. It's crucial to ensure that all documents are submitted electronically through the prescribed bidding portal to avoid disqualification.

Bidders must provide several required certificates, including proof of past experience, technical compliance certificates with IS 4658, and, if applicable, MSE or startup registration documents. Ensuring that these documents meet the specified requirements is vital for a successful bid. Incomplete submissions may result in disqualification from the evaluation process.

The registration process entails creating an account on the designated bidding portal. After registration, bidders must complete their profiles and verify their eligibility by submitting necessary documents. It’s essential to follow the outlined steps in the tender documentation to ensure successful registration for GEM/2025/B/5832406.

The Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) amount and specific payment instructions can be accessed in the main tender document. This deposit serves as a security measure and is mandatory for all bidders. Failure to submit the required EMD may lead to bid rejection, so it should be calculated and included in the bid proposal as specified.

The tender provides special considerations for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSEs) and startups. Both categories are eligible for exemptions from certain experience and turnover criteria, which encourages broader participation. Documentation proving MSE or startup status must accompany the bid to qualify for these provisions, allowing smaller entities to compete competitively.
