A Bokaro-based firm, Kamladityya Construction Pvt. Ltd., on Tuesday emerged as the lowest bidder for the Central Public Works Department’s project to construct a new residence for the Vice-President of India.
The firm bid 3.52% below the CPWD’s estimated cost of ₹214.03 crore with a bid of ₹206.49 crore, beating out five other firms — SAM India Builtwell Pvt. Ltd, Swadeshi Civil Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd., Dee Vee Projects Ltd., PSP Projects Ltd and Ahluwalia Contracts India Ltd., whose bid of ₹268.76 crore, was the highest.
The CPWD had in August invited bids for the construction and maintenance of the Vice-President’s Enclave for five years, as a part of the larger Central Vista redevelopment plan. The new complex is proposed to come up near Rashtrapati Bhavan and replace the existing Vice-President’s residence at Maulana Azad Road that is proposed to be demolished to make way for office buildings in the new Central Secretariat.
