APIIC has invited bids worth ₹165.99 crore to set up the Bulk Drug Park at Nakkapalli in Anakapalli district, Andhra Pradesh, and the window is short: bids close on 29 July 2026.
What is on offer
The main work is the setting up of the Bulk Drug Park at Nakkapalli. The sub-work, as worded in the tender, is engineering, procurement and construction including commissioning, testing, trial run and comprehensive operation and maintenance. In short, one agency takes the package from build through to running it in. The Chief Engineer of the Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation at Mangalagiri is inviting the bids.
The listing does not publish an EMD figure, a tender fee or a completion period, and the form of contract is recorded only as Other. That is thin for a job of this size, so treat the ₹165.99 crore as the headline and get the actual split, milestones and O&M term from the tender documents on the AP portal before you commit anything.
Who should bid
Bulk drug parks are common infrastructure jobs: site development, internal roads and drains, water and effluent systems, and the utility buildings that serve the plots. An EPC that carries commissioning and a trial run into a comprehensive O&M term needs a contractor comfortable with both civil delivery and running services afterwards. Established EPC firms with industrial park or process utility experience in coastal Andhra are the obvious fit, either directly or as a consortium.
Anakapalli sits in the Visakhapatnam belt, so mobilisation is straightforward and local subcontracting depth is good. That matters on a deadline this tight.
The machine side
Park development work is earthmoving first and everything else after. Expect excavators and backhoe loaders for site grading, trenching and utility lines, wheel loaders with tippers for material movement, and motor graders plus compactors for the internal road network. Structures and utility buildings then bring in concrete mixers and cranes. For machine owners around Anakapalli and Visakhapatnam, a park build is the kind of job that keeps a fleet on hire for a long stretch rather than a few weeks.
