The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has put 196.605 km of NH-351G in Gujarat out on hybrid annuity at ₹911.80 crore, and the Nageshree Chotila tender closes at 11:00 AM on 8 December 2026.
Nearly 200 km in one package
The work runs from design km 0.00 to km 196.605 on the Nageshree to Chotila section of NH-351G, and the existing road is to be upgraded to a two and four-lane standard with paved shoulders. P4 Delhi of the ministry is the inviting office, reference RW/NH12014/07/2026GJ/ZONEWEST, and the portal allows 912 days.
A single package of that length is unusual. It crosses the Saurashtra plain between the Nageshree side and Chotila, which means long haul distances for aggregate and several working fronts open at once rather than one crew moving along the alignment.
Hybrid annuity, so bring a lender
On hybrid annuity the concessionaire builds with part of its own money and recovers the rest as annuities after the road is complete. Your bank arrangement has to be in place before the bid, not after. EMD is ₹9,12,00,000, almost exactly 1 per cent of the ₹9,11,80,00,000 estimate, and the fee is ₹1,00,000. The portal lists the form of contract as lump-sum while the notice calls it hybrid annuity mode.
Work of this length is won on haulage and plant, not on a single big machine. Expect several hot-mix plants along the route, a crusher spread, and tipper fleets running in shifts. Excavators and wheel loaders handle borrow and feed, motor graders and compactors build the layers, and culvert and structure work calls for transit mixers and a crane. Machine owners around Rajkot, Surendranagar and Morbi should be talking to bidders now, because a 912-day job on this alignment will absorb more hired plant than any single contractor owns. Our note on road construction equipment covers what each layer needs.
