Tender Overview
Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited invites bids for the supply of Driving Gear Box Oil under PAC terms, with Mobil Delvac as the authorized lubricant brand.

The terms emphasize brand exclusivity, OEM/dealer authorizations, and a minimum shelf life of 15 months for supplied product, ensuring usable shelf life at the point of supply. The contract cadence and delivery-flexibility clauses are aligned with PAC procurement norms and extended delivery calculations.
