In the event of a scenario wherein for e-tender 10846 the quantity gets split between L1- Non-MSE vendor (80% of quantity) and MSE vendor (20% of quantity) on account of purchase policy (As per MSE Order 2012), and both such bidders have opted to bid for e-tender 10847 and are qualified, then the combined PQ criteria as per Clause-1(C) would be reduced proportionately for such L1 bidder and bids for e-tender 10847 would be considered only if such L1-bidder meets the proportionately reduced combined PQ criteria (order values and turnover). The bids of MSE vendor receiving 20% of order quantity in e-tender 10846 would be considered for e-tender 10847 as the vendor already qualifies PQ criteria (order values and turnover) as specified as per Clause-1(A) which is higher than 20% of values (order values and turnover) as specified in PQ Clause-1(A) plus values (order values and turnover) as specified in PQ Clause-1(B). 3.
