NHAI has put 181.30 km of the Hyderabad to Vijayawada highway out to bid as one ₹6,792.52 crore BOT package, and the Hyderabad Vijayawada six lane tender closes at 11:00 AM on 23 November 2026.
One of the largest road packages of the year
Package 1 covers NH-65 from chainage 39.85 to 221.15, a 181.30 km run that crosses from Telangana into Andhra Pradesh. The road is to be widened to six lanes under BOT mode, so the winning concessionaire finances and builds it and recovers its money from the highway over the concession period. NHAI Head Office (Technical) issued it under reference TGDIV/15/2026-Telangana Division/307193.
The bid security matches the scale: EMD is ₹67,92,00,000 with no exemption, and the tender fee is ₹6,80,000. The portal gives 910 days for the works. A pre-bid meeting is set for 11:00 AM on 26 October 2026, and bids open at 11:30 AM on 25 November.
Who can realistically bid
Only large concessionaires with the balance sheet to fund a toll road of this size will bid as lead. The bigger opportunity for most readers sits one level down: earthwork, structures, service roads and hot-mix supply will be split among sub-contractors across a corridor that passes Suryapet, Kodad and Nandigama. If you run a fleet near any of those towns, now is the time to get in front of the likely bidders.
Widening next to live traffic means long stretches of embankment, drainage and pavement work running at once. Expect heavy demand for excavators, tippers, motor graders, soil and tandem compactors and wheel loaders at crusher and batching sites. Flyovers, underpasses and bridge widenings will need transit mixers, pumps and cranes. Paver crews and milling machines will be busy through the pavement phase.
