Tender Overview

The procurement is issued by the Indian Army under the Department Of Military Affairs for Offset Printing Ink (Q3) in Dehradun, Uttarakhand 248001. The tender covers general ink specifications including type of offset ink, color, compatibility with printing machines, and suitability for dampening systems, with an emphasis on ink tack and shelf life.
