MoRTH is upgrading 119.5 km of NH-151K through Porbandar, Bhanvad, Jamjodhpur and Kalavad to two lanes with paved shoulder at ₹749.39 crore, and the Porbandar Kalavad tender closes at 11:00 AM on 30 October 2026.
A long Saurashtra corridor in one go
The contract covers design km 0.000 to design km 119.500 of NH-151K in Gujarat on hybrid annuity mode, issued by P4 Delhi under reference RW/NH-12014/165/2024/GJ/Zone-V. The portal records a lump-sum form of contract with 730 days.
Nearly 120 km in a single package is long for a two-lane upgrade. The alignment links Porbandar on the coast to Kalavad inland through Bhanvad and Jamjodhpur, so the winner will run three or four fronts at once to finish inside two years.
Terms for bidders
The estimate is ₹7,49,39,00,000, EMD is ₹7,49,00,000 with no exemption, and the fee is ₹80,000. The notice was published on 16 March 2026 and bids open at 3:00 PM on 2 November 2026. As a HAM contract it needs committed debt at bid stage.
Saurashtra is basalt country. Cutting and borrow both involve rock, which means excavators with breakers and a crusher spread sized for the whole 119 km rather than one reach. Hauls are long, so tipper numbers drive the schedule more than loader capacity does.
Pavement work needs a hot-mix plant with a motor grader and compactors per front. Coastal humidity near Porbandar is hard on pins, bushes and electricals, so plan on shorter greasing intervals. Backhoe loaders will be busy with drains and utility shifting through built-up stretches at Bhanvad and Jamjodhpur.
