The tenderer will be able to view the following on the Auction site screen along with the necessary fields in
the Reverse Auction:
Auction Date
Start Time
Duration Of The Event
Auto Auction Extension Clause / Rule
Balance Time Available In Minutes
Opening Bid Price
Decrement Value.
Leading Bid In The Auction (Current Lowest Bid Price)
Bids Placed During The Event
BID PRICE: The Tenderer has to quote the Evaluated Cost to RCF for the items specified. Any technocommercial loading, to arrive at the Evaluated Cost to RCF, shall be intimated to tenderers prior to e-RA
event in the form of Evaluation sheet. The detailed evaluation procedure of bids is mentioned in the NIT.
e-Reverse Auction: RCF will declare its Opening Bid Price (OBP), which shall be displayed to all
tenderers during the start of the Reverse Auction. The tenderer will be required to start bidding after
announcement of Opening Price and decrement amount. OBP displayed on screen is the Evaluated Cost to
RCF. The offered bid price shall be a price lower than start bid price or the leading bid price(current lowest
price when auction is on) by one decrement value or multiples of the decrement value. The process shall
be repeated till the end of the auction. Any bid offer is made with reduction other than in one decrement
value or multiples of the decrement value, will be treated as invalid bid and will be rejected in the e-RA.
(For example : Say OBP is Rs 100000, decrement value is Rs 100 or multiple of Rs 100, then 99900,
99200, 89000,88900 etc are examples of valid bid, where as 99850, 99225, 89123 etc are examples of
invalid bids).
Reverse Auction shall be for a period of 60 minutes or as per RCF’s requirement. If a tenderer places a bid

the auction shall get extended automatically for another 5 minutes, from the time that bid comes in and
such auto-extension will be continued till the bid is received & accepted in such extended 5 minutes. If
the bid does not get accepted in last 5 minutes, the auto-extension will not take place. In case, there is no
bid in the last 5 minutes of closing of Reverse Auction, the auction shall get closed automatically without
any extension. However, tenderers are advised not to wait till
the last minute or last few seconds to enter their bid during the last five minutes/auto-extension period to
avoid complications related with internet connectivity, network problems, system crash down, power
failure, etc. which ultimately leads to non acceptance of such offer.
The bidding of the prices on-line in e-RA shall be carried out with utmost care by the tenderers.
Bids once made by tenderer, cannot be cancelled or withdrawn or modified.
After the completion of e-RA, the Closing / Final Bid Price (CBP) shall be available on auction screen.
At the end of the Reverse Auction, L1 tenderer (i.e. tenderer who has quoted lowest final closing bid price
in the e-RA event) has to provide price confirmation giving a detailed break up through email or fax on
tenderer’s letter-head(physical/scanned) immediately as per attached prescribed FORMAT B – Price
Confirmation Form. In case the tender involved bidding for total evaluated cost for more than one item,
the percentage reduction received in e-RA Final Bid Price shall be applied equally to all the items included
in the total evaluated cost.
During Reverse Auction, if no bid is received within the specified time, RCF, at its sole discretion, may
decide to reschedule / scrap the Reverse Auction process / proceed with conventional mode of tendering /
