According to the tender notification, the last date for submission of proposals will be April 29. The project work is expected to commence over the next few months after the contract is awarded to the successful bidder.
The project was proposed in 2023, however, it was delayed owing to challenges in finalising the financial tie-up.
The two-storey market complex will house over 800 shops with a cold storage facility, including shops for wholesale operations on the ground floor. It will have separate segments for wholesale and retail vendors with a spacious floor area.
