Earnest money in the form of a CDR at 5% of the estimated cost must be uploaded on E-PAD, with the original CDR submitted half an hour before bid opening to avoid disqualification. The procuring agency emphasizes strict compliance with submission requirements and warns against fake documents, which will lead to blacklisting and further action by PPRA and PEC.

The tender process follows PPRA Rule-35, allowing rejection of bids at any stage prior to acceptance. The submission address is the office of the Deputy Director Engineering, WASA Gujrat.
