A new research campus is being built at Babugarh in Hapur, and the Babugarh campus tender from CPWD closes on 16 September 2026 at ₹95.62 crore.
What the job covers
CPWD is bidding the first phase of the ICAR-CIRC campus at Babugarh, Hapur district, on EPC Mode-I. The sub-head named in the notice covers an administration cum laboratory building and a farmers training hostel, plus land development at Site A. Land development sitting inside the same package is what makes this a machine job rather than a pure building contract: the ground has to be shaped, filled and drained before the structures start. Reference number is 18/CE(GZB)/NIT/2026-27 and the estimate is ₹95.62 crore.
Who should bid
Earnest money is ₹1,05,61,766, about 1.1 per cent of the estimate, and there is no tender fee. Withdrawal is not allowed. An EPC package means the design responsibility comes with the build, so a bidder needs either an in-house design team or a firm tie-up before submission. Hapur is close enough to the National Capital Region for material supply to be easy and for labour to be expensive, and a laboratory block carries services and finishes well beyond ordinary office work. Price the mechanical and electrical content carefully.
Machines you will need
Land development leads. Excavators, dozers and tippers move the bulk, then motor graders and vibratory compactors bring the platform to level and density. Once the structures start, the demand shifts to concrete: transit mixers, a concrete pump and a mobile crane for shuttering and steel. A backhoe loader stays useful throughout for service trenches, drainage and the odd job that does not justify a bigger machine, and compactors return for the internal roads and parking.

The first phase of the ICAR-CIRC campus: an administration cum laboratory building and a farmers training hostel, with land development at Site A tendered in the same package.
What does EPC Mode-I change for a bidder?
Design responsibility moves to the contractor along with construction. You quote one price against an output specification, so the design team has to be lined up before the bid rather than after award.
Has the closing date moved?
Twice. It went from 10 September to 15 September, then to 16 September 2026. Both changes were picked up as portal date revisions, so check the current date before you submit.
What is the earnest money?
₹1,05,61,766, roughly 1.1 per cent of the ₹95.62 crore estimate, with no tender fee. Withdrawal is not allowed once the bid is in.
