There is a comfortable runway on this one, with bids open until 31 July 2026, for the balance work on the Umaria–Shahdol two-lane paved-shoulder road in Madhya Pradesh, worth ₹67.67 Cr.
What’s left to build
MPRDC is tendering the balance work on the Umaria–Shahdol road, a two-lane carriageway with paved shoulders. Balance work means an earlier contract left part of it unfinished, so the bill of quantities is what remains to complete the road. It is a percentage-rate contract valued at ₹67.67 Cr.
Read the BOQ and drawings closely. Balance jobs reward contractors who understand exactly what is done and what is not.
Made for
This is a solid mid-size highway job for a regional road contractor. EMD is a manageable ₹33.84 lakh, fee ₹50,000, both online, and the late-July deadline gives you time to line up plant and finance.
If you own a paving train and an earthmoving fleet, finishing-stage work keeps machines billable without a long mobilisation.
Gear for the stretch
Completing a two-lane road usually leans on surfacing and shoulder work more than fresh cutting. Graders and soil compactors for the formation and shoulders, a wet-mix plant, paver and tandem rollers for the layers, and tippers to keep aggregate moving. Keep an excavator and a couple of hydras handy for drains, culverts and the odd patch of fresh earthwork.
