1) Technical bids draw four players as eil tightens the pump baseline with a datasheet reset in HPCL LMBU project
8A late technical amendment swaps the governing datasheet and quietly hardens post-award risk allocation through embedded remarks. With four bidders in the technical opening, the real separator now sits in compliance discipline and deviation posture — not in brand familiarity.
2) GMPL narrows the field to two for OSBL commissioning instrumentation support as compliance tripwires bite
8Five bidders showed up, but only two made it through gmpl’s technical gate for osbl commissioning instrumentation support. The documents reveal a tender architecture where paperwork timing, reference-proof rigour, and SeZ zero rated pricing discipline can decide survival as much as field capability. The disqualification pattern raises a larger question about how many “real” contenders this market can sustain under portal-first procurement tightening.

1) PNGRB stretches Paradip–Raipur LPG pipeline bid by 91 days while rewriting the corridor to 650 km
8Two bidder-driven extensions quietly turn this PNGRB authorisation into a longer, costlier feasibility contest, not a simple deadline shift. The bigger story is the mid-process corridor rewrite to 650 km and the net worth wall moving up to Rs 390 crore, which reshapes who can realistically stay in the race. The clause tweak that allows meaningful route deviation signals an execution reality the original bid geometry could not absorb.
2) PNGRB changes length of Cherlapally–Nagpur LPG pipeline from 453 km baseline is rewritten to 550 km
8The change reads like a response to buildability and corridor-constraint anxiety. The real question is how tightly the regulation backstop will be applied in evaluation.
3) PNGRB keeps stretching the Jhansi to Sitarganj LPG pipeline bid window after a late origin reset and a trunk-plus-spur redesign
8The regulator is simultaneously relaxing route rigidity (a 10% deviation allowance) while refusing to carry bidders on coordinates, RoU intelligence, or interface parameters. The result is a bid race where balance sheet scale and field intelligence may matter as much as the quoted tariff and capacity numbers.
