Indian Army MT Spare Tender Tiruvallur Tamil Nadu 600019 – EMD ₹17,610, Service Centre & Sample Approval 2026

Tender Overview

The Indian Army, Department of Military Affairs, invites bids for five MT spare items (MT Spare 1 to MT Spare 5) at Tiruvallur, Tamil Nadu 600019. The bid includes an EMD of ₹17,610 and requires bidders to have or establish a functional service centre in the state within 30 days of contract award. Inspection can be via nominated agency, with post-reception checks at the consignee site. Advance sample approval is mandatory before bulk manufacturing, with a tight 5-day submission window and a 7-day conformity decision. Turnover evidence from the last three financial years is required.

Key differentiators include on-site vs carry-in warranty considerations, and adherence to supplier qualification via documentary evidence of service capability and demonstrated financial stability. The absence of product-level specifications in the data shifts focus to serviceability, sample discipline, and compliance with the Buyer’s terms.
