Kutch gets another EPC highway package: ₹497.58 crore to upgrade 57.8 km of NH-927C between Chitrod, Rapar and Balasar, and the Chitrod Rapar tender closes at 11:00 AM on 30 November 2026.
Fifty eight kilometres across the Kutch interior
The scope runs from design km 0.00 to km 57.848 on the Chitrod Rapar Balasar section of NH-927C, taken to a two lane with paved shoulders standard. Zone West of MoRTH is the issuing office, reference RW/NH12014/04/2026GJ/ZONE-WEST, and the contract carries 730 days. The portal lists the office location as New Delhi while the work itself sits in Gujarat.
Rapar is the gateway to the Little Rann, and roads out there carry a steady load of salt, mineral and cement traffic. Pavement design on a route like this is governed by heavy axles rather than by volume.
A near twin, bid on the same day
MoRTH released this package alongside the Naliya Narayan Sarovar package on NH-41 under consecutive reference numbers, and both close on 30 November with opening at 11:30 AM on 1 December. A contractor who wins the pair can share plant and senior staff across two Kutch jobs, though the sites are a long way apart.
EMD here is ₹4,98,00,000 with no exemption and the fee is ₹50,000. The estimate on the portal is ₹4,97,58,00,000. The notice has been live since 14 May 2026, so read the corrigenda carefully.
What is not standard in Kutch is logistics. Water for compaction, approved borrow earth and operator accommodation all have to be arranged over long distances, and that is usually the difference between a profitable Kutch job and a painful one. Fleet owners in Bhuj, Gandhidham and Morbi are best placed on hire.
