The Public Works Region has invited bids to four-lane the Ahilyanagar to Sambhajinagar road on NH 753F in Maharashtra, a job valued at about Rs429.48 Cr, with bids closing on 13 August 2026.
What the work involves
This tender covers the improvement and four-laning of the Ahilyanagar-Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar road, the Ahilyanagar to Vadala section of MSH-05, which carries the NH 753F designation. The stretch runs from Km 120/400 to Km 162/00 in Ahilyanagar district, roughly 41.6 km of carriageway to be widened and strengthened. The Public Works Region is running it through its World Bank Project Division in Ahmednagar, on an item-rate contract. Widening an existing state highway to four lanes means a full package of earthwork, granular and bituminous layers, cross-drainage, culverts and junction work along the whole alignment.
Who this suits
At Rs429.48 Cr the contract sits firmly in EPC territory. It fits established road contractors and joint ventures that can post the Rs4.29 Cr earnest money and staff a job spread over 41 km. If you own or hire out road-building fleet across western Maharashtra, the sub-contract and equipment-hire demand around Ahilyanagar will be steady once the main package is awarded. Aggregate suppliers and plant owners near Ahmednagar and Sambhajinagar should note the bid opening on 17 August 2026.
Plant the job will need
A four-laning package this long pulls in a continuous line of earthmoving and paving equipment. Look for excavators on drainage and widening cuts, motor graders and compactors shaping and rolling the formation, and wheel loaders feeding the crushers and batching. Owners weighing a purchase against the contract period can look at equipment finance options before committing to a fleet.
