For water supply contractors with ADB project experience, the Rishikesh water supply tender from Uttarakhand’s urban sector agency closes at 4:00 PM on 14 October 2026, with a bid security of ₹2.30 crore.
What UUSDA is asking for
The Uttarakhand Urban Sector Development Agency (UUSDA) has invited bids for development of the water supply system at Rishikesh with one year of operation and maintenance. The reference is UUSDA/P-109/1409 and the Program Director, UUSDA, Dehradun is the inviting authority. The tender sits in the agency’s ADB section on the state portal.
The portal does not publish a tender value or a work period. The only money figure is the EMD of ₹2,30,00,000, which points to an estimate of about ₹115 crore if the deposit is 2 per cent. Use that as a rough guide and take the real figure from the bid document.
Costs and dates
The tender fee is ₹29,500 and EMD exemption is not allowed. A pre-bid meeting was held in Dehradun on 14 September. Bids open at 5:00 PM on the closing day. The portal lists the form of contract as item rate.
Rishikesh has narrow market streets and heavy visitor traffic for most of the year, so pipe laying usually moves in short night shifts. Backhoe loaders and mini excavators do the trenching, a pick-and-carry crane handles large-diameter pipe and reservoir shuttering, and transit mixers serve the tanks. Road reinstatement keeps a small compactor busy behind every gang.
