Narsipatnam constituency has a Rs320.16 crore multi-village water supply scheme out to tender on Tandava Reservoir in Anakapalli district, with bids closing 19 August 2026.
Scope of the Tandava Narsipatnam water supply scheme
This is the smallest of the packages Andhra Pradesh’s Chief Engineer-I released on 29 July 2026, and it is the more approachable one for a mid-sized contractor. The scheme draws from Tandava Reservoir to serve Narsipatnam constituency, and the portal carries an estimated contract value of Rs320.16 crore against an NIT headline of Rs500.00 crore.
Anakapalli district has two of these schemes running at once. The larger Yeleru package covers a different segment of the same district, so a contractor bidding both would be mobilising into familiar territory twice over.
Who should look at it
At around Rs320 crore this sits within reach of contractors who would not qualify for the thousand-crore packages in the same batch. The work is the standard multi-village build: intake and pumping, treatment, transmission mains out to the habitations, storage reservoirs and internal distribution. Local firms in Anakapalli and Visakhapatnam are well placed on both the main bid and the subcontract packages.
Machines the job will keep busy
Trenching dominates the hire book. Excavators run the mains, backhoe loaders handle the tighter village distribution and service connections, compactors follow the backfill, and tippers keep spoil and bedding moving. Cranes come in at the intake, the pumping stations and the service reservoirs, and concrete mixers cover chambers, thrust blocks and structures. On a scheme of this length the machines stay deployed for the duration rather than moving in and out.

When do bids close?
Bids close on 19 August 2026. Submission opened on 4 August 2026 and no bid opening date has been published.
Why does the notice quote Rs500.00 crore?
That is the scheme estimate carried in the NIT title. The portal lists Rs320.16 crore as the estimated contract value. Both appear on the same notice, and the whole batch released on 29 July 2026 shows the same pattern.
Is this the same as the Yeleru Anakapalli tender?
No. Both are in Anakapalli district but they are separate contracts on different reservoirs. This one draws from Tandava Reservoir for Narsipatnam; the Yeleru package is a larger scheme with its own tender ID and deadline.
