SPECIAL CONDITIONS



22.0 ESCALATION AND DE-ESCALATION OF FUEL PRICES

22.1 The escalation/ de-escalation of quoted rate shall be considered only on account of increase or decrease in

prices of fuel.

22.2 No escalation shall be given for the first month of Operation of vehicle.

22.3 Base rate of Fuel shall be considered as applicable in the state of Gujarat (as Declared by BPCL) on the date

of opening of unpriced bid for first revision and then subsequent revision will be based on IGL’s revised rate

during the contract period.

22.4 The agreed rate shall be subject to escalation/de-escalation whenever there is variation of ± 5% in the price of

the diesel as per the formula given below :

New Rates for per MT = Quoted rate per MT + {(Avg. Km covered in quoted rate X (New Diesel rate -

Base Diesel Rates / Fuel Avg. of the LNG tanker}

Please see the below calculation for New rates considering Ajmer District:

a. Avg. Km (Both Sides) = 800 x 2= 1600 Km;

b. Net Quantity of LNG transported per trip = 16 MT

c. Fuel (Diesel) Avg. of LNG tanker = 3.25 KM / L

Consider an escalation in diesel price from Rs. 65 per ltr (base rate) to Rs. 70 per ltr (revised rate of Diesel)

Let Quoted rate per MT of LNG = Rs. 4,000/-

Let Base Rate of Diesel (on Bid Opening date) = Rs. 65/-

Let Revised per Litre Diesel rate [Monthly Average rate (Previous Month of operation) for Diesel

declared by BPCL in the State of Gujarat] = Rs. 70/-

Then quoted rate per tanker trip = 4000 x 16 = Rs. 64,000/-

Revised Rates per tanker trip = Rs. 64000 + {(1600 x (70-65)/ 3.25} = Rs. 64000 + 2461.54 = Rs. 66461.54

Increase per MT per increase in diesel price = (Revised Rate per tanker- Quoted rate per tanker) / (LNG

transported in MT)

Increase per MT due to increase in diesel price from Rs. 65 to 70 per litre = (66461.54- 64000) / 16

= Rs. 153.84 per MT

23.0 PENALTIES

loading, unloading, handling, installation, testing, assistance in statutory approval, documentation, pre-

commissioning and commissioning, Operation and Comprehensive Maintenance for dispensing of L-PNG

& L-CNG at Ajmer-Pali-Rajsmand GA in the State of Rajasthan only.

Consumption/Demand for Secondary Station is approximate 4000 Kg per day. This demand shall gradually

increase over the period of time.

L-CNG & L-PNG shall be supplied from all 20 Nos. secondary stations.

Transportation of LNG from Primary Station to Secondary Stations within 50 kms, 60 Kms & 40 Kms from
