----------------------------- The captioned writ petitions are in respect of tenders invited by the Kerala Water Authority; the challenge therein is basically in respect of the Additional Performance Guarantee required to be furnished in the context of various State Government Orders, and memoranda of Government of India issued during Covid 19 : 116 : pandemic; and orders of the State Government granting relaxation in the matter of furnishing performance guarantee under certain circumstances. Therefore, it is for convenience that they are divided into different batches; but at the same time, common contentions are raised claiming benefits of the Government Orders/ memoranda.

2. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioners, Sri.

Santhosh Mathew, Sri. George Mathew, Sri. V. Premchand, Sri. Shiraz Abdulla, Sri. Tessy Jose, Sri. Shanes Methar and the other learned Advocates, the learned Standing Counsel for the Kerala Water Authority, Sri. V.V. Joshy, Sri. P.M. Johny and Sri. Georgie Johny, Central Government Counsel Smt. Mini Gopinath, and the learned Special Government Pleader Sri K. V. Manoj Kumar, and perused the pleadings and material on record. I also place on record that since other writ petitions of the like nature are pending, other learned counsel who offered to advance arguments, were also heard. Batch 1:

3. The captioned Batch 1 writ petitions are with respect to

the tenders invited by the Kerala Water Authority to carry out its civil works; among other conditions, furnishing of Additional : 117 : Performance Guarantee is a term of the contract, out of which at least 50% shall be collected in the form of treasury fixed deposit and the rest in the form of bank guarantee or any other forms prescribed in the revised PWD Manual. The question to be decided is whether such a condition is valid in law, in view of certain orders issued by the State Government, and Office Memoranda issued by the Government of India in the context of Covid-19 Pandemic.

4. According to the petitioners, by virtue of the Order dated

07.01.2021 issued by the State Government, the requirements of the Performance Security/Security Deposit, Bid Security/Earnest Money Deposit and Additional Performance Guarantee for the execution of the public works in the State were relaxed taking into account Covid-19 pandemic situation, operative for a period of one year. The period of relaxation for furnishing the Performance Guarantee for the execution of the public works in the State alone was extended as per Government Order, G.O.(P) No. 32/2022/Fin. dated 15.03.2022 for a further period up to 31.03.2023.

5. On a perusal of the Government Order dated 07.01.2021,

it is clear that the Additional Performance Guarantee is the additional amount to be deposited for unbalanced price i.e. for works quoted below the estimate rate; and Additional Performance Guarantee will be required, if the works quoted between 11% to : 118 : 25% below the estimate rate. Government Order, G.O.(P) No. amount of the lowest bidder (L1) is x% below the estimated PAC, the Additional Performance Guarantee shall be (X-10%) of estimated PAC. The said order was issued by the State Government on account of slowdown in economy and acute financial crunch among the contractors due to the pandemic Covid-19.

6. It is true, the Government of India issued guidelines as per

Office Memoranda bearing Nos. F18/4/2020-PPD and F9/4/2020- PPD dated 13.05.2020 and 12.11.2020 respectively and the State Governments were requested to consider issuing similar instructions in respect of procurement by the State Government, State Government Public Sector Undertakings, Local Bodies and all agencies controlled by them. As per the aforesaid Office Memoranda, the Government of India issued certain guidelines that

(i) reduction in Performance Security exceeding 5-10% to 3% of the

value of the contract; (ii) no provisions regarding Bid Security should be kept in the Bid Documents in future and only provisions for Bid Security Declaration should be kept in the Bid Documents; and (iii) no provision should be kept in the Bid Documents regarding the Additional Security Deposit/Bank Guarantee in case of Abnormally Low Bids. Other guidelines were also issued by the : 119 : Central Government.

7. The State Government examined the matter taking into

account the request made by the Government of India and ordered that (1) Performance Security/ Security Deposit to be submitted at the time of executing the agreement is reduced from the existing rate of 5% to 3% of the contract amount; (2) correspondingly Bid Security/Earnest Money Deposit is reduced from 2.50% to 1.50% of the estimated amount; (3) Additional Performance Guarantee is waived for the low quoted items on the condition that the bidder shall furnish an undertaking to execute all low quoted items in full as per contract terms; (4) the above relaxations on account of Covid-19 pandemic are made applicable for works initially for one year and would be reviewed post that date; and (5) the Government Order is made applicable to all new tenders as well as works which have been tendered and awarded, but agreements have not been signed by the winning bidder.

8. Later, the State Government, by order bearing No. G.O.(P)

No. 32/2022/Fin.Dated 15.03.2022, considered the subject matter, taking into account the Office Memorandum No.F 9/4/2020-PPD dated 30.12.2021 issued by the Government of India, and decided to extend the benefits of reducing the rate of Performance Guarantee to contracts executed under the State of Kerala. : 120 : Accordingly, the State Government extended the relaxations in

Performance Guarantee ordered as per the Government Order

dated 07.01.2021 alone for a further period upto 31.03.2023. Therefore, it can be seen that even though various relaxations were granted by the State Government as per Government Order dated 07.01.2021, the said relaxations were altered by the Government

Order dated 15.03.2022 by confining the relaxation in respect of the

Performance Guarantee alone as ordered in the Government Order

dated 07.01.2021.

9. The paramount contention advanced by the petitioners in

the writ petitions is that the Office Memorandum issued by the Government of India relaxing the conditions during pandemic period is binding on the State Government; and therefore, the State Government was duty bound to exempt furnishing of Additional Performance Guarantee, since the Government of India have not provided any time limit for the relaxation ordered in its memorandum.

10. On an analysis of the Office Memoranda of the

Government of India, I find that the relaxations due to pandemic Covid-19 was granted by the Government of India consequent to the representations received by the Government on account of slowdown in economy due to pandemic and also due to acute : 121 : financial crunch among many commercial entities and contractors, which, in turn, was affecting timely execution of the contract. Therefore, in all contracts, the Performance Security was reduced from the existing rate of 5-10% to 3% of the value of the contract for all existing contracts. Further, all tenders/contracts issued or collected till 31.12.2021 were given the benefit of the reduced Performance Security. Various other benefits were also granted by the Government of India.

11. It was made clear in those Office Memoranda that the

instructions will be applicable for all kinds of procurement namely goods, Consultancy, works, non consulting services etc. and are issued under Rule 6(1) of the General Financial Rules (GFRs), 2017. The Office Memoranda further shows that it was issued to all the Secretaries and Financial Advisers to the Government of India and copy to the Secretary, Department of Public Enterprises with a request to issue the same instructions to Central Public Sector Undertakings. It is also clear that the Central Government, in its Office Memorandum dated 12.11.2020, has relaxed the condition of Additional Performance Guarantee in case of Abnormally Low Bids, however, with a rider that wherever there are compelling circumstances to ask for Additional Security Deposit/Bank Guarantee in case of Abnormally Low Bids, the same should be : 122 : taken only with the approval of the next higher authority competent to finalise the particular tender, or the Secretary of the Ministry/Department, whichever is lower.

12. That apart, the Micro and Small Enterprises and the firms

registered with concerned Ministries/Departments were exempted from submission of bid security, and further in lieu of bid security, Ministries/Departments were given liberty to ask bidders to sign ‘Bid Security Declaration’ accepting that if they withdraw or modify their bids during period of validity etc., they will be suspended for the time specified in the tender documents. Accordingly, it was directed that no provisions regarding the Bid Security should be kept in the Bid Documents of the Micro and Small Enterprises in future and only provision for Bid Security Declaration should be kept in the bid documents. It was also directed that wherever there are compelling circumstances to ask for Bid Security, the same should be done only with the approval of the next higher authority competent to finalise the particular tender, or the Secretary of the Ministry/Department, whichever is lower.

13. Later, as per a memorandum No. F 9/4/2020-PPD dated

30.12.2021 issued by the Government of India, the validity of the OM regarding the “Performance Security” was extended till 31.03.2023. Therefore, on an analysis of the Office Memoranda : 123 : issued by the Government of India, it is clear that certain relaxations were granted; but, the same were granted by securing additional declarations from the contractors who are entering into different kinds of contract. It is true that in the Government of India Notification, Additional Performance Guarantee was completely exempted. But, it is interesting to note that in the Office Memorandum dated 30.12.2021 by which relaxations were extended upto 31.03.2023, the relaxation was granted only in respect of “Performance Security”.

14. It is equally important to note that nowhere in the Office

Memoranda issued by the Government of India, direction was issued to the State Government to grant relaxation in Performance Security, Additional Guarantee, Earnest Money Deposit etc. But, apparently, the State Government, taking into consideration the Office Memoranda issued by the Government of India, have granted relaxations as per the State Government Orders referred to above.

15. As I have pointed out above, even though as per the

Government Order dated 07.01.2021, Additional Performance Guarantee was insisted upon by way of 50% treasury deposit and 50% bank guarantee in cases where the quote was between 11% to 25% below the estimate rate, when the order dated 15.03.2022 was issued by the State Government extending the period upto : 124 : 31.03.2023, the relaxation granted to the Performance Guarantee alone was retained by the State Government.

16. In my considered opinion, the same was done by the

State Government taking into account the office Memorandum dated 30.12.2021 issued by the Government of India, Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure Procurement Policy Division extending the validity of OM dated 12.11.2020 regarding “Performance Security” till 31.03.2023 in the matter of direct procurement policy.

17. The paramount contention advanced by the petitioners is

that the State Government Order dated 15.03.2022 is violative of the directives issued by the Government of India. It is further contended that as per the said Government Order, relaxation given by the Government of India in the Office Memorandum referred to above and the State Government Order dated 07.01.2021 have been completely overlooked. It is further contended that the bidding was done by the petitioners under a legitimate expectation that they need not take additional burden, since they are entitled for the benefits of the Government Order dated 07.01.2021.

18. It is also contended that as per the Government Order

dated 15.03.2022, unforeseen liability has been cast upon the petitioners and the respondents are not entitled to impose any : 125 : such liability, since it is an additional burden on the petitioners, which affects the agreed profit also. Various other contentions are also raised.

19. The Kerala Water Authority has filed a common counter

affidavit in the writ petitions, basically contending that the Water Authority has invited tenders from the contractors specifically prescribing the requirements that have to be followed by the contractors if and when they are selected to execute the agreement. It is further contended that in response to the Notice Inviting Tender published by the Water Authority, the petitioners have submitted their bids along with covering letters, wherein it is specifically stated that the petitioners have read and understood all the conditions of the tender documents in full spirit and agrees to accept all the conditions put forth in the tender documents without any deviation or with exceptions.

20. The petitioners further undertook to agree to all

conditions in the Notice Inviting Tender and any other conditions prevailing in the Kerala Water Authority. It is also contended that once the petitioners have participated in the contract, fully knowing well the terms and conditions to be complied with, if they are selected, they are not at liberty to turn around and attack the provisions of the Notice Inviting Tender. The principles of law : 126 : evolved by the Apex Court in various judgments are relied upon by the Kerala Water Authority. That apart, it is contended that the challenge made against the requirement of deposit of Additional Performance Guarantee is liable to be rejected, since there is no vested or contractual right to the writ petitioners, as there is no contract entered into by and between the parties.

21. It is important to note that in the Notice Inviting Tenders,

it was specifically stated that the bidders are liable to submit Additional Performance Guarantee for all the low quoted items and Additional Performance Guarantee is the additional amount to be deposited for the work quoted below the estimated rate. It is also the contention of the Water Authority that wherever the contract in question is an Item Rate Contract, Additional Performance Guarantee is to be furnished for each item quoted by the bidder, and not as contended by the petitioners that only if the total amount quoted is below 10% of the PAC, then only additional Performance Guarantee need be furnished.

22. That apart, it is contended that by virtue of Regulation

5(3) of the Kerala Water Authority (Authentication of Orders, Assurance of Property and Execution of Contracts) Regulations, 1992, the PWD Code has been made applicable to the contracts entered into by and between the contractors and the Kerala Water : 127 : Authority. It is further submitted that in clause 2006 of the PWD Manual, 2021, it is stipulated that in the case of item wise contracts, the schedule shall contain only the specification for items and quantities. The sum and substance of the contention is that the Kerala Water Authority is bound to adhere to the stipulations contained in the PWD Manual. Therefore, it is submitted that two terms are used in the Notice Inviting Tender with specific meanings attached namely ‘Probable Amount of Contract’ and ‘equated rates’, which means ‘the rate quoted against each item’.

23. It is also pointed out that the rate quoted by the bidder

against each item is applied against the rates used to work out the total PAC of the amount, and the additional PAC has been worked out. Therefore, it is submitted that whenever the petitioners quoted very low rates for a number of items, predominantly that are to be executed towards the end of the project and therefore, the bids are front loaded and in order to secure assurance measure with respect to the performance and complete the project executing all the items mentioned in the agreement, additional Performance Guarantee was insisted upon. It is further pointed out that an Additional Performance Guarantee is sought in such cases in order to protect the interest of the public and for the safe conclusion of the contract in terms of the agreement executed by and between the parties. : 128 :

24. In the Statement filed for and on behalf of the Government

of India, it is unequivocally stated that the memoranda issued by it would not bind the State Government, rather they apply only to the Central Ministries, its Departments and Central Public Sector Undertakings. It is also specified that the said aspect is clearly stated in the referred memorandums.

25. The elaborate discussion of facts made above would

make it clear that the prime contention advanced by the petitioners is that the Office memoranda issued by the Government of India in respect of various kinds of contracts during the pandemic Covid-19 is binding on the State Government. In my considered opinion, the same cannot be sustained under law.

26. As I have pointed out above, on an analysis of the Office

Memoranda successively issued by the Government of India with respect to different kinds of contract, it is categoric and clear that they are intended for the use of the Central Government Departments and Public Sector Undertakings. It is true, the State Government, taking into account the pandemic Covid-19 situation, has risen to the occasion and granted relaxations in the matter of Performance Guarantee, Additional Performance Guarantee and other Bid Securities. But, in the subsequent extension order dated 15.03.2022, the relaxation granted was only in respect of the : 129 : Performance Guarantee to the extent mentioned in the State Government Notification dated 07.01.2021 and nothing else.

27. It is relevant and important to note that the tenders were

invited by the Kerala Water Authority clearly specifying the requirements in the Notice Inviting Tender and the Government Orders referred to therein. Therefore, I am of the view that after participating in the tender with open eyes, the petitioners cannot turn around and contend that they are not liable to furnish Additional Performance Guarantee in terms of the provisions of the Notice Inviting Tender and the applicable State Government orders.

28. I am of the considered opinion that when tenders are

invited taking into consideration the manner in which the item wise rates of contract are to be tackled by the Government Departments and other Public Sector Undertakings, the Kerala Water Authority was entitled to insist the successful bidders to execute the agreement in terms of the Notice Inviting Tenders and other Government orders. Even though in some writ petitions, the petitioners have a contention that in the Notice Inviting Tender, the item wise rate schedule was not incorporated, it is clear that the State Government have issued notification dated 28.09.2015 in that regard, which was later modified by the Government Orders dated 07.12.2019, by which the manner in which the Additional : 130 : Performance Guarantee is to be required for the work quoted below the estimate rate, and quoted, between 11% to 25% below the estimate rate, is prescribed.

29. As per the said Government Order dated 07.12.2019, the

Government modified G.O.(P) No. 19/2016/FIN. dated 03.02.2016 and G.O.(P) No. 124/2016/FIN. dated 29.08.2016, as per which “(1) for the Percentage Rate Contracts-if the quoted amount of lowest bidder (L1) is X% below the estimated PAC, the Additional Performance Guarantee amount shall be (X-10)% of estimated PAC; and (2) for Items rate contracts-if the rate quoted by the bidder for an item of work is ‘X’% below the estimate cost where ‘X’ lies above 10%, the additional Performance Guarantee for that item of work is equal to (X-10%) of the estimate amount for that item of work. The total Additional Performance Guarantee for the whole work is the total individual Additional Performance Guarantee for each item of work calculated as above.” Therefore, it can be seen that by virtue of the said notification, the Kerala Water Authority was entitled to insist for furnishing of the Additional Performance Guarantee in terms of the modified Government Order. : 131 : Batch II:

30. The Batch II writ petitions relate to the claims raised by

the micro, small and medium enterprises in terms of the Orders/Notification issued by the State Government and the Government of India, Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises,in the matter of awarding of contract by giving facilities/benefits to MSMEs.

31. The basic contention advanced by the writ

petitioners/contractors is that the Government of India,Batch II as per its Notification, F. No. 25(2)/2011-MA dated 14.10.2011, granted the following facilities/benefits in the matter of Government purchase to help Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) registered with National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC), in marketing their products by providing facilities/benefits:

1. Issue of tender sets free of cost;

2. Exemption from payment of Earnest Money;

3. Waiver of Security Deposit upto the Monetary Limit for which at the Unit is registered;

4. Price Preference upto 15% over the quotation of large scale units; and

5. In addition to the above, 358 items are reserved for exclusive purchase from MSE Sector. : 132 :

32. The first question to be considered is the implication of

the said Notification issued by the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, Government of India. On a perusal of the Notification issued by the Government of India, it is clear that the same applies to the purchase of goods from the MSEs and not in civil contracts floated by the Government or the Public Sector Undertakings. It is also clear that the said notification happened to be issued on the basis of certain directions issued by the High Court of Delhi as well as the High Court of Kerala with respect to the purchases made from the MSEs.

33. It is true, insofar as the purchase of goods and services

are concerned, the Government of India Notification may come into play and the State Government may be bound to grant such benefits in the matter of procurement of goods and services by virtue of the consequential notification issued by the State Government. In fact, the State Government has issued a Government Order, G.O.(P) No. 1/2021/FIN. dated 03.01.2021, clarifying that aspect and it is directed that exemption regarding Earnest Money Deposit/Security Deposit/ Performance Guarantee granted to MSMEs as per Government Order, G.O.(P) No. Electrical/infrastructure contracts in the light that Earnest Money : 133 : Deposit/Security Deposit/Performance Guarantee play a vital role in civil works in confirming satisfactory execution of contract over a considerable time period as well as in ensuring quality of work.

34. The said question was considered by the Apex Court in

Airport Authority of India v. Centre for Aviation Policy, Safety & Research (CAPSR) & Others [2022 SCC Online SC 1334], wherein it was held that Ground Handling Services is not “procurement of goods” under MSME; compliance to MSME Procurement Policy is required only after the other eligibility criteria is fulfilled by the candidates. It was further held that insofar as the submission with respect to MSME orders of 2012 and 2018 is concerned, the same can always be subject to the fulfillment of other conditions of the tender documents; that even otherwise, selecting GHS for providing GHS cannot be equated with the procurement of any goods and services that form the crux of the MSME orders; and that in any case, at the instance of respondent No. 1 therein, the High Court ought not to have entertained the writ petition challenging the terms and conditions of the tender documents and none of the tender conditions/eligibility criteria can be said to be arbitrary and/or mala fide and/or actuated by bias.

35. A Division Bench of the Orissa High Court had considered

: 134 : this question in Jalswal Plastic Tubes Ltd. and Ors. v. State of Orissa and Ors. [MANU/OR/0368/2012) and held that the if the tender is floated for execution of work on turnkey basis, it is not a tender for procurement of PVC pipes from any manufacturer or supplier and therefore, various IPRs including IPR, 2007 and the Orissa MSME Development Policy, 2009 have no application insofar as the work intended to be executed on turnkey basis under Annexure-1 is concerned.

36. The petitioners have challenged the State Government

Order contending that it is in violation of the provisions of the Micro,

Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 (‘Act, 2006’ for short) and the Notification issued by the Government of India. However, in my considered opinion, as has been pointed out above, the Notification issued by the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises dated 14.10.2011 itself is in the context of procurement of goods from MSEs. To put it differently, merely because procurement of goods and services is a component factor for execution of a civil contract, that can never be treated as a procurement contract to secure the advantage of the orders and notifications referred to above. Even though the learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the State Government Order is in violation of the Act, 2006, I could not locate any provision in the : 135 :

said Act to arrive at a conclusion that the State Government Order

dated 03.01.2021 would interfere with any of the provisions of the Act, 2006.

37. Anyhow, in some of the cases filed by the MSME

contractors, a contention is advanced with respect to the benefit of the Notifications issued by the State Government referred to in the case of the covid related exemptions that ‘(X-10)% policy’ would apply to the MSMEs also and therefore, the Kerala Water Authority, in the matter of item wise rate contracts can only insist for Additional Performance Guarantee, if the quoted amount in total is less than 10% of the Probable Amount of Contract.

38. The said question, in fact, is answered by me in the first

batch of cases on the basis of the modification order issued by the State Government in the year 2019 and that the ‘(X-10)% policy’ would apply to each item of component material used in the execution of the works of the Kerala Water Authority. Even though the petitioners have a contention that the order issued by the State Government in the year 2019 is not applicable to the Kerala Water Authority, I am of the view that even though the Kerala Water Authority is a statutory body, it cannot be treated as one detached from the State Government. At the most, it could be treated as a : 136 : Department of the State Government functioning under a statute.

39. Therefore, the PWD Manual and the State Government

Orders issued in the context would apply to the Kerala Water Authority, which are also specifically mentioned in the Notice inviting tenders. The said condition is insisted upon by the Kerala Water Authority to ensure financial capacity of the contractors; and to ensure that the works are not stalled during the period of contract and any extended period granted to the contractors.

40. Moreover, the execution of civil contracts are entirely

different from procurement of goods and services; and the risk element involved in the execution of civil works, insofar as the State Government and its instrumentalities are concerned, is more in nature due to various factors; specifically in the event of abandoning the work by the contractors. Therefore, in my considered opinion, in civil contracts, the State Government is fully justified and legally correct asking the contractors to furnish additional performance guarantee. Batch III:

41. These writ petitions are filed challenging the Additional

Performance Guarantee sought for by the Kerala Water Authority in : 137 : respect of the Items Rate contracts. In the said writ petitions also, other contentions with respect to the covid related benefits in the matter of execution of contracts are raised; however, they are dealt with in the first batch of writ petitions.

42. The basic contention advanced by the petitioners is that

in the Notice Inviting Tender, the Kerala Water Authority has not provided the rates of each item of work and further that in the Notification issued by the State Government with respect to the ‘(X- 10)% policy’ issued in the year 2016, the State Government has not specifically stated that it would apply to the Items Rates contracts. As I have pointed out above, in the year 2019, the State Government has issued the order, G.O.(P) No. 168/2019/FIN. dated 07.12.2019, as per which the Government Orders issued in the year 2016 were modified and clearly specified that for Percentage Rate Contracts, if the quoted amount of lowest bidder(L1) is X% below the estimated PAC, the Additional Performance Guarantee amount shall be (X-10)% of the estimated PAC.

43. But, in the matter of Items Rates Contract, it was

clarified in the said Government Order dated 07.12.2019 that if the rate quoted by the bidder for an item of work is ‘X%” below estimate cost where ‘X’ lies above 10%, the Additional Performance : 138 : Guarantee for that item of work is equal to (X-10)% of the estimate amount for that item of work; and the total of Additional Performance Guarantee for the whole work is the total of individual Additional Performance Guarantee for each item of work calculated as above.

44. Therefore, it can be seen that the claims raised by the

petitioners absolutely on the basis of the Government Orders of the year 2016 cannot be sustained, in view of the modified order issued in the year 2019, which is applicable to the Kerala Water Authority, especially when it is specified in the Notice inviting tender. That apart, as rightly contended by the Kerala Water Authority, since PWD Code applies to the Kerala Water Authority, it has to adhere to the stipulations contained under the PWD Code; and the Notice Inviting Tenders are to be issued in terms of the provisions of the PWD Code. The manner in which the contracts are to be invited and the conditions are to be stipulated in the Notice Inviting Tender are clearly specified in the PWD Code, by which the Kerala Water Authority needs to issue the Notice Inviting Tender in accordance with the parameters contained under the PWD Code.

45. Therefore, merely because the items are shown in the

schedule and the rates are not prescribed, that would not ensure to : 139 : the benefit of the contractors from quoting the rates for individual items, taking into account the estimated Probable Amount of Contract. Considering the facts and figures, I am of the view that if the contracts are invited by the Kerala Water Authority on the basis of the Percentage Rate Contracts, then the contractors are entitled to provide Additional Performance Guarantee only on the basis of Probable Amount of Contract. But, if the tenders are invited on the basis of the ‘items rate wise’, then the contractors are duty bound to provide Additional Performance Guarantee for each item of work calculated on the basis of (X-10)% for the estimated amount for that item of work.

46. In one of the writ petitions, a latest tender issued by the

Kerala Water Authority is produced, wherein, in the Items Rates contract, the Schedule of rates are shown and therefore, according to the learned counsel for the petitioner therein, the Water Authority has realised the situation now and it was accordingly that schedule of rates are included. But, in my considered opinion, pursuant to the order issued by the State Government in the year 2019, even if the Water Authority has not shown the rates for each item, it was for the contractors to offer the same showing the items wise rates. Therefore, merely because the Water Authority has issued a schedule of items wise rate contract in a tender invited in : 140 : the year 2023, that will not enure to the benefit of the contractors to contend that the contractors were not liable to provide items wise rates, even due to the modified order issued by the State Government in the year 2019.

47. In W.P.(C). No. 6964 of 2023 included in ‘Batch III’, the

petitioner seeks a direction to the respondents to release the Bank Guarantee furnished by the petitioner towards Additional Performance Guarantee. The said relief is sought for by the petitioner on the basis of the Government Order dated 07.12.2019 in the matter of tenders furnished below the 10% of the estimated PAC. In view of the findings rendered above, the petitioner herein is also liable to furnish Additional Performance Guarantee, if the tenders are invited on the basis of the Items Rates Contract. Therefore, the petitioner is not entitled to get any reliefs in respect of the Additional Performance Guarantee insisted upon. The findings rendered above would apply to the petitioner in this writ petition as well.

48. It is a well settled law in the realm of contract that the

bidder, having participated in the tender accepting the conditions and requirements contained in the Notice Inviting Tender, cannot seek equity and protection of the fundamental rights guaranteed under Articles 14 and 19(1)(g) of the Constitution of India, unless : 141 : there is patent arbitrariness, irrationality, mala fides, nepotism and other similar situations. It is also well settled in law that unless and until gross illegality, mala fides, arbitrariness or irrationality are established, the writ court would be slow to interfere in the terms and conditions of a contract or a Notice Inviting Tender. After all, the contracts in question are all commercial contracts, the terms of which were recited in advance by the Kerala Water Authority through its Notice Inviting Tenders and the references made thereto. A reference to a few decisions of the Apex Court would make the situation more clear.

49. In Global Energy Ltd. v. Adani Exports Ltd., (2005) 4

SCC 435], it was held that the terms of the invitation to tender are not open to judicial scrutiny and the courts cannot whittle down the terms of the tender as they are in the realm of contract unless they are wholly arbitrary, discriminatory or actuated by malice.

50. In Master Marine Services (P) Ltd. v. Metcalfe &

Hodgkinson (P) Ltd., (2005) 6 SCC 138], it was held that the court does not have the expertise to correct the administrative decision and if a review of the administrative decision is permitted, it will be substituting its own decision, without the necessary expertise, which itself may be fallible. It was further held that the Government must have freedom of contract and that fair play in the : 142 : joints is a necessary concomitant for an administrative body functioning in an administrative sphere or quasi-administrative sphere.

51. In Airport Authority of India v. Centre for Aviation

Policy, Safety and Research (CAPSR) and Ors. [AIR 2022 SC 4749], it was held that while exercising the powers under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the terms and conditions of the Invitation to Tender cannot be set aside. It was further held that as per the settled position of law, the terms and conditions of the Invitation to Tender are within the domain of the tenderer/tender making authority and are not open to judicial scrutiny, unless they are arbitrary, discriminatory or mala fide. It is further held that the bidders participating in the tender process cannot, therefore, insist that their tenders should be accepted simply because a given tender is the highest or lowest depending upon whether the contract is for sale of public property or for execution of works on behalf of the Government; and all that participating bidders are entitled to is a fair, equal and nondiscriminatory treatment in the matter of evaluation of their tenders; that it is also fairly well settled that award of a contract is essentially a commercial transaction which must be determined on the basis of consideration that are relevant to such commercial decision and which implies that terms subject to : 143 : which tenders are invited are not open to the judicial scrutiny, unless it is found that the same have been tailor-made to benefit any particular tenderer or class of tenderers.

52. In Michigan Rubber (India) Limited v. State of

Karnataka [(2012) 8 SCC 216] it was held that; in the matter of formulating conditions of a tender document and awarding a contract, greater latitude is required to be conceded to the State authorities, unless the action of the tendering authority is found to be malicious and a misuse of its statutory powers; interference by courts is not warranted; and that certain preconditions or qualifications for tenders have to be laid down to ensure that the contractor has the capacity and the resources to successfully execute the work; and if the State or its instrumentalities act reasonably, fairly and in public interest in awarding contract, here again, interference by court is very restrictive, since no person can claim a fundamental right to carry on business with the Government.

53. In that view of the matter, I do not think, the petitioners

are entitled to get any relief of excluding the Additional Performance Guarantee insisted upon by the Kerala Water Authority and therefore, the reliefs sought for by the petitioners in that regard are declined. : 144 :

54. But, fact remains, when the writ petitions were admitted

to the files of this Court, interim orders were granted by this Court directing the Kerala Water Authority to execute agreements with the petitioners on condition that the petitioners execute a simple bond undertaking to furnish additional Performance Guarantee if and when so directed by this Court at a later point of time. Being so, it is important to note that, consequent to the interim orders passed, agreements were executed and work has progressed considerably. In some cases, I am informed that the works are complete; in certain other cases, works have progressed above 30%, and some even attained upto 75% and above.

55. In some of the writ petitions, insistence of 50% of the

Additional Performance Guarantee by way of treasury fixed deposit was challenged and interim orders were passed to provide 100% bank guarantee. In fact, the said question with respect to the validity of the condition for providing 50% of the Additional Performance Guarantee by way of treasury Fixed deposit was considered by a Division Bench of this Court in State of Kerala v. Joseph Velupuzhakkal [2018(3) KLT 1076] and upheld the said condition for furnishing 50% of the Performance Guarantee by treasury fixed deposit.

56. In that view of the matter, I am of the opinion that, in

: 145 : the peculiar facts and circumstances of these cases, certain general directions can be issued. Accordingly, these writ petitions are disposed of with the following directions:

1. If the work in accordance with the agreement is completed by the contractors, no Additional Performance Guarantee shall be insisted upon.

2. If the work has progressed to a level exceeding 80%, the

tendering authority is left with the liberty to take a decision as to whether any Additional Performance Guarantee is to be insisted upon, taking into account the efficiency, reputation, men and machinery engaged, and other positive factors of the respective contractors.

3. If the work has exceeded 30% of the total work, then the tendering authority is directed to secure Additional Performance Guarantee proportionate to the balance work.

4. In all other cases, the contractors/petitioners are directed to

furnish an Additional Performance Guarantee to the tendering authority as specified in the tender documents within three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

5. In cases where a Performance guarantee is furnished by the

contractors in spite of its relaxation up to 31.03.2023, the said amounts can be adjusted against the Additional Performance guarantee required in the circumstances specified above. : 146 :

6. In cases where 100% bank guarantee is furnished, instead of 50% by way of treasury fixed deposit, the same is permitted to be continued in the facts and circumstances, if the work has exceeded 30% of the total work.

7. If the tenders are invited on the basis of the Percentage Rate Contracts, then the contractors are liable to furnish the Additional Performance Guarantee on the basis of (X-10)% of the estimated PAC.

8. If the tenders are invited on the basis of Items Rates

Contract, then the contractors are liable to furnish Additional Performance Guarantee for each item of work on the basis of (X-10)% of the estimated amount for each item of work.

9. I make it clear that the directions are issued as above taking

into account the peculiar facts, features and circumstances involved in these cases consequent to the interim orders granted; and it shall not be treated as a precedent, except in regard to the writ petitions pending in the above context.
