'The interest rate for Mobilisation advance is given as 12% p.a. which is to be given

58 Mobilization Advance against 100% Bank Gurantee. The B.G.expenditure is aroung 3% p.a.As per Tender conditionSo the net advance cost comes to 12% + 3% = 15% per annum.

It is requested to revise the interest rate to SBIbase rate so that it is a viable costIt is mentioned that the mobilisation advance is to be fully recovered in 9 months fromLOA.It should be noted that It takes around 2-3 months to complete all formalities forthe advance payment releas.[PBG submission, contract agreement, Advance BGsubmission & confirmation, payment processing time, etc.). 50 the net available period

59 Mobilization Advance for mobilasition advance is 6 months. Asper Tender conditionThis does not help the agency for speeding up the projectIt is requested to ament the clause to deduct the mobilisation advance on pro rata basisi.e. 10% recovery for each bill.As advance BGis available with MSEDCL,it is requestedto not keep any time limit for full recovery.

A feeder seperation work involves HTline, DTC& LTline. The HTline length is around15·20 KMper feeder. Due to large length of HTline, many crossings (i.e. Highway,railway, forest. river, etc.) will be required. Due to this it is very difficult to totallycomplete the feeder in short period.Also there will be many ROWissues as the line is mostly passing through Gaothan areas.As per our experince, the seperation work gets completed in partial stages. Even in

60 90% payment oDUGjYfeeder seperation works there are guidelines to partially commission theAs per Tender conditionfeeders.

Also the LTbifurcation works take a lot of time as the correct LTnetwork map is notavailable at feild offices.Due to the above reasons, the direct 90% billing procedure for complete feeder is notpractically helpful for maintaining the cash flow of agency.It is requested to provide interim relief to the agency by allowing 70% payment againstcompleted portion of works. The balance 20% may be released after comissioning.

As per Ourexperince the average bill amount of a complete feeder is Rs. 30 to 50 lacswhich gets completed in 2-3 stages.The works will be divided in 4-5 divisions.

61 Running account bills It will not be possible to have a single RAbill of Rs. 1crore. As per Tender conditionIt is requested to remove the limits on no. ofRA bills per month & the minimum RAbillamountThese limits will affect the cash flowof the project & will lead to slow work progress.

The retention amout available with MSEDCLwill be 10%. The BGavailable for theproject will be 5%.In the event of default by contractor the security available with M5EDCLwill be 10% +

62 10% Retention 5% = 15%.As per Tender conditionAllthe deductions required (i.e. IP, LD,negative PV,etc.) will be recovered from the

agency at the time of90% bill itself. The retention amount witheld is on a higher side.It is requested to reduce the 10% retention amount to 5%. This will improve thecashflow of the project & help in fast progress of works.
