Tender Details
The procurement covers multi-piece foldable Posterior Chamber Intraocular Lenses (PCIOL) under the Q2 GeM catalogue. These IOLs are implanted during phacoemulsification cataract surgery and other anterior-segment procedures at the ESIC Medical College hospital. The quantity covers 200 lenses over the contract.
Eligibility / Pre-qualification
The bidder must have a minimum average annual turnover of Rs. 3 lakh and the OEM must have an average turnover of Rs. 24 lakh over the last three years. The bidder must also demonstrate two years of past experience and a past-performance threshold of 20 percent of bid quantity. Documents required from the seller include experience criteria, past performance, bidder turnover, OEM authorisation certificate and OEM annual turnover. MSE and start-ups get complete relaxation from turnover criteria but must still meet experience.
EMD / Earnest Money
EMD is Rs. 19,560 and ePBG of 3 percent is required as per the bid document. EMD exemption is available to MSE manufacturers and service providers per GeM GTC; traders are excluded.
How to Bid
Log in to gem.gov.in with a valid Class III DSC and locate GEM/2026/B/7453624.
Download the bid document and any ATC uploaded by the buyer.
Prepare OEM authorisation, three-year turnover proofs (bidder Rs. 3 lakh, OEM Rs. 24 lakh) and two-year past-experience certificates.
Pay or arrange EMD of Rs. 19,560 in the prescribed instrument or upload exemption certificate.
Upload past-performance documents proving supply of 20 percent of bid quantity in any one of the last three financial years.

Important Point
Reverse-auction qualification rule is H1 elimination - bidders quoting the highest will be removed from RA.
The ePBG percentage is 3 percent, which is lower than the 5 percent applied on many other ESIC GeM bids.
Past-performance threshold of 20 percent is relatively lenient and opens the bid to smaller eyecare distributors.
