The unfinished part of a two lane upgrade near Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar is going out again: the ₹42.59 crore Paithan Shirur road tender closes at 5:30 PM on 16 December 2026.
Balance work plus routine care on a 55 km stretch
The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways wants the balance work and routine care for upgradation of the Paithan to Shirur section, chainage 00.00 to 55.937 of NH-752E, to two lane with paved shoulders. It is on EPC mode through the NH Division at Aurangabad under RO Mumbai, reference EENHD/Chh.S./Tender/NIT No.09/3002195, with 548 days.
The phrase to read carefully is balance work. The quantity left is spread thinly across 56 km rather than concentrated, which means long internal haul, several small working fronts and a lot of time spent moving plant. Price mobilisation per front, not per project.
Terms, and the routine care obligation
The estimate is ₹42,59,15,936, with EMD of ₹42,59,160 at exactly 1 per cent and a ₹10,000 fee. The portal lists the form of contract as works. Routine care means you also keep the stretch maintained during the contract, so patching crews, markings and drain clearing sit alongside the construction programme.
Scattered balance work suits a light fleet. A backhoe loader or two covers drains, shoulders and patch excavation, a mid-size excavator handles cross drainage and widening pockets, and a compact motor grader with tandem compactors finishes the paved shoulders. Carry a small mixer for culvert and kerb work instead of waiting on transit supply over that distance. Owners near Paithan, Shirur and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar who can move machines on a trailer the same day will get the most hire days out of it.
