2.19.2 The Authority reserves the right to reject any Application which is nonresponsive<br />

<strong>and</strong> no request for alteration, modification, substitution or<br />

withdrawal shall be entertained by the Authority in respect <strong>of</strong> such<br />

Application.<br />

2.20 Clarifications<br />

2.20.1 To facilitate evaluation <strong>of</strong> Applications, the Authority may, at its sole<br />

discretion, seek clarifications from any Applicant regarding its Application.<br />

Such clarification(s) shall be provided within the time specified by the<br />

Authority for this purpose. Any request for clarification(s) <strong>and</strong> all<br />

clarification(s) in response thereto shall be in writing.<br />

2.20.2 If an Applicant does not provide clarifications sought under Clause 2.20.1<br />

above within the prescribed time, its Application shall be liable to be<br />

rejected. In case the Application is not rejected, the Authority may proceed<br />

E. QUALIFICATION AND BIDDING<br />

2.21 Pre-qualification <strong>and</strong> notification<br />

After the evaluation <strong>of</strong> Applications, the Authority would announce a list <strong>of</strong><br />

pre-qualified Applicants (Bidders) who will be eligible for participation in the<br />

Bid Stage. At the same time, the Authority would notify the other Applicants<br />

that they have not been pre-qualified. The Authority will not entertain any<br />

query or clarification from Applicants who fail to qualify.<br />

2.22 Submission <strong>of</strong> Bids<br />

The Bidders will be requested to submit a Bid in the form <strong>and</strong> manner to be<br />

set out in the Bidding Documents.<br />

Only pre-qualified Applicants shall be invited by the Authority to submit their<br />

Bids for the Project. The Authority is likely to provide a comparatively short<br />

time span for submission <strong>of</strong> the Bids for the Project. The Applicants are<br />

therefore advised to visit the site <strong>and</strong> familiarize themselves with the Project<br />

by the time <strong>of</strong> submission <strong>of</strong> the Application. No extension <strong>of</strong> time is likely to<br />

be considered for submission <strong>of</strong> Bids pursuant to invitation that may be<br />

issued by the Authority.<br />
