Cancellation of Auction for Agriculture and Cooperative Department

This notice from the Agricultural Engineering Department Balochistan in Quetta informs stakeholders about the cancellation of a previously scheduled auction related to agriculture and cooperative activities. The original auction was referenced under PRQ No. 2978/30-12-2025 and was published on 31st December 2025. The department has officially postponed the auction, with a new date to be announced in due course. The auction was intended to facilitate procurement or disposal related to agricultural inputs or equipment, which are critical for supporting farming operations in the region. Quetta's agricultural sector often faces unique challenges such as arid climate and terrain, making the availability and management of agricultural resources vital for local farmers and cooperatives. For interested parties, it is important to note that the cancellation means no immediate procurement or sale will take place. Compliance with procurement regulations, including Earnest Money submission and adherence to FBR/ATL status, remains essential once the auction is rescheduled. Participants should ensure their PEC registration and financial year documentation are up to date to avoid disqualification. The department will announce the new auction date later, and bidders should prepare to submit their bids by the updated deadline. Typically, submissions are made in sealed envelopes delivered to the department's office in Quetta. The original closing date was set for 7 days after the publish date, which would be 3rd February 2026 at 23:59:59. Pro-Tip: Keep a close watch on official publications and the department's website for the rescheduled auction date. Also, verify the specific requirements for Call Deposit Receipts (CDR) and technical bid documentation, as these are often overlooked and can lead to bid rejection.
