The successful bidder must provide OEM warranties, establish service networks in India, and ensure after-sales capabilities (installation, commissioning, and training). Post-acceptance inspection is conducted by BOO; pre-dispatch inspection is not universally required as per ATC. A one-year warranty is mandated from final acceptance or post-installation testing, with OEM warranty certificates submitted at delivery.
