Puri Ports & IWT Civil Construction Tender, Odisha

Odisha’s Ports and Inland Water Transport directorate has opened a ₹142.87 crore civil construction package at Puri, with bids closing 20 August 2026.

The Directorate of Ports and IWT, Bhubaneswar, has invited open tenders for civil construction work at Puri. It is a works contract on a percentage-rate basis, run across two bid covers with a 90-day bid validity. Coastal and waterfront civil jobs like this do not come up often on the Odisha portal, so it is worth a close read for any contractor working the eastern seaboard.

Scope of the Puri civil construction work

The package sits under the Ports and IWT department, which points to shore-side and water-transport civil work rather than a plain building job. The bill of quantities and the detailed tender document carry the exact split, so download both before you cost it. At ₹142.87 crore, expect a mix of substructure, concreting and finishing that runs over a full construction season.

Who this fits

A civil or marine-civil contractor with port, jetty or coastal-protection experience is the natural bidder. The earnest money is ₹1,42,87,200, though EMD exemption is allowed for eligible categories, and the tender fee is a modest ₹10,000. That opens the door a little wider than most jobs of this size, so mid-sized firms with the right past performance should take a look.

Plant you will run on site

Waterfront civil work leans on excavators for dredged-margin and foundation work, cranes for heavy lifts, and a steady supply of transit mixers and concrete pumps. Wheel loaders and tippers handle aggregate and spoil. If you hire out equipment near Puri or Bhubaneswar, a season-long coastal site is good utilisation.
