Dear Sir,
You are kindly aware that above contracts were awarded on 16.05.14 and we are unable to
carry out any meaningful execution since required stubs supply is still awaited. In view of this
we are unable to deploy necessary resources. Immediate supply of stubs is to be ensured to
avoid further delays and execution pressure at a later date which results in deployment of
disproportionate workforce at inordinately high cost.
We want to avoid pressure of execution within original completion on us due to avoidable initial
delays not attributable to us. We also want to ensure safety of our work force which at times
becomes extremely difficult to maintain while executing with un-planned & disproportionate
resources at site.
To avoid further delays in foundation work, we request you to please expedite the supply of
stubs for these contracts which ensures smooth completion of foundation work except for any
ROW issues.
Considering the delays so far in supply of stubs and we may send you the revised bar chart for
your approval as these delays are not attributable to us.
Further the following issues still unattended and request your kind attention for the same and
issue us the necessary approvals
1. As per clause no. 30.8, Section – III, Page no. 68 of General Conditions of Contract
(GCC), we have to take Storage and Erection insurance of the materials being supplied
by Powergrid NM Transmission Limited, for the subject project. In this regard, we
request you to inform the value of the Owner Supplied Materials (OSM) in order to get
the quotations for insurance from insurance company and submit the same to you for

2. Engineering documents like Drawings for stubs, Stub setting templates , foundation
drawings , structural drawings, line materials drawings including hardware fittings,
earthing & tower accessories drawings.
3. Source Approval for usage of Cement (including PPC grade) & steel.

Dear Sir,
With reference to the subject project we would like to bring your kind attention on our Erection payment
terms of Clause No.1.1 D where 10% of payment of erection components will be pay progressively after
completion of stringing work of corresponding segment.
Regarding this clause we want to make your kind attention on following matters-
1) As per schedule angle tower stub would be supplied on the month of July’2014 but we have
received angle point stubs on the month of Nov’14 and latter we have casted the gap locations
which effect the efficiency of our foundation progress.
2) We have received first lot DA type tower 60 set on Jan’15 in erectable shape supplied by M/s.
Skipper but extension of the same was supplied on the month of Mar’15 due to this numbers of
gap locations are increases which affect the progress as well as incurred extra cost for gang
shifting.
3) The angle tower supply has been completed on dated 06.04.2015 but till date no spring washer &
Pack washer for 24mm B&N are supplied from M/s. ICOMM, hence our erection at angle points
are yet to be start. Till date we have not received any approved drawing of tower extension for
angle towers.
4) As per approved L2 network we need to be start our stringing activity on the month of Jan’15 and
our foundation activity of section 25/0 to 26/0, 37/0 to 40/0 & 42/0 to 44/0 of 12.99 KM was
completed but we are unable to start our stringing activity due to timely received of towers,
conductor, hardware & insulator.
On the basis of above matters, it is clearly shown that the delay in start of stringing activity is not
beyond the control of M/s. GIL, hence we request to please release our hold 10% amount of Rs.166.92
Lacs upto passed RA bill of Feb’15 (Details attached) against foundation & erection activity as per
Clause No. 1.1.C of Payment terms. This helps us to regularize our cash flow and we are able to

Dear Sir,
With reference to the subject contract and further to review meeting held on
11.06.2015 at PGNMTL, Bangalore, we invite your attention on the following –
a. Foundation : From the annexure –A you will observe that for part-I out of
balance 115 locations, 61 locations are on hold and for part-II out of balance
91 locations, 78 locations are on hold due to various reason. Therefore we can
work only on the 54 location on Part-I & 13 locations at Part-II which has been
planned for completion by Aug’15.
Cont..2
b. Erection : From the annexure –II, you will observe that total 232 location
erection balance which foundations has been completed. However we
have only 67 nos erectable tower at store, out of the same 50 nos tower
getting erected in July’15 and only 17 tower will remain for aug’15. Thus there
will be gang idling. As communicated during the meeting the movement of
erection gang from Jharkhand/Malda has been commenced and we
expect arrival of 8 to 10 tower erection gangs in addition to existing 7 gangs.
Therefore immediate supply of towers is required from PGNMTL. We herein
also proposed PGNMTL to supply further towers on tower wise bundling basis
in order to save the time required for sorting and stacking of material at store
and further issuance to erection gang.
In view of the above you would agree that the progress of project is getting suffered
for the reasons beyond control of M/s. GIL and we request your immediate action on
the following matter.
a. Clearance of foundation work on hold location (139 Nos).
b. Supply of towers (103 nos) in July’15 & Aug’15 progressively to ensure erection
program up to sept’15.
c. Supply of tower instead of mass bundling, on tower wise bundling basis.
d. Immediate release of Rs. 4.07 cr amount hold towards foundation & erection
component.

hereunder-
From above as well as detailed status given in annexure enclosed, you will observe the

Erection 272 Nos 272 Nos 120 Nos 152 Nos
Stringing 103 Km 87 Km 18 Km 69 Km
We invite your kind attention to the following reasons and hold points which were
beyond our control and impact of the same has affected the work progress as well as
schedule plan. Major events of delay are as under:-
I. Survey:
a. As per schedule the check survey should be finalized by Mar’15, but the same has
been received by Sep’15 (section wise details given in annexure-I).
b. Till date we are yet to be get technical clearance from Gantry to 3/0 affecting
2.32
Km & 7 nos Locations, due to bay position finalization at Nagapattinam S/S end.
2. Statutory Involved: In subject line 2 nos Railway crossing & 14 nos Power line crossing
involved. Approvals of railway crossing conclude but out of 14 Power line crossing
we have received clearance of 6 nos, 8 nos are still pending for that 17 Nos
Location & 2.761 Km are affected (Section wise statutory clearance details in
Annexure-IB). The above mentioned statutory clearance (2 nos Rly & 6 nos Power
line) received on Aug’15 and for that 7 nos locations & 1.577 KM section were
affected.
3. Foundation:
a. As per schedule we need to be start foundation activity on the Month of July’14
and for that the first lot of stub should be reached at site by June’14, however
same
has been receipt on Aug’14 and first lot of angle tower stub has been received in
the month of Nov’14.
b. Please refer annexure-II, regarding month wise section clearance received from
PGNMTL for foundation activity and annexure –III regarding month wise s
foundation completion by GIL. Wherein you will observe that upto Jun’15 the
foundation activity is in line with the clearances received from M/s. PGNMTL.
However, subsequently from July’ 15 onwards, backlog has occurred due to ROW
encountered at Cashew nuts garden from section 3/0 to 8/0 wherein 48 locations
were affected and secondly due to delay in approval of statutory clearances
affected 34 nos locations. Further, due to non-finalization of bay position i.e. from
1/0 to 3/0, 7 nos locations were held up.
c. Further 3.5 M foundation has been introduced in the line in Jun’15 i.e. after 13
Months from date of contract. Due to the introduction of above drawings 32
nos locations have been affected and stub for the same are yet to be supplied
from M/s. ICOMM.
5. Stringing:
a. Stringing activity were schedule to start from Jan’15, but due to delay in supply of
angle towers stretches could not be ready to commence the stringing till April 15.
Also the first lot of Line material has been receipt at site on the month of May’15
which was scheduled in Dec’14.
b. After receipt of material and angle towers we have started our stringing activity
from section 38/0 to 39/0 – 1.568 Km. After completion of this section we were
only able to do paying out from 39/0 to 41/0 – 6.732 Km, the final sag was
pending due to non-availability of angle towers with desired extensions and
further no sections was clear for stringing which we repeatedly informed you
through our communication (vide letter no. GIL/AL/G-289/17355 dated 06.02.15,
GIL/PGCIL-NM/G-289&290/2014-15/48 dated 19.05.15,GIL/PGCIL-NM/G-

GIL/SS/G-289&290/18169 dated 26.08.15 copy enclosed). This has resulted hold
of stringing activity for next two months.
c. Further We have submitted our stringing plan section wise, identifying the
immediate required tower extensions to complete the stringing stretches of
36.309 KM, vide our letter no. GIL/SS/G-289&290/18169 on dated 26.08.15, but
supply of angle tower and its extension not done by PGNMTL and we are unable
to ready the stretches to expedite the stringing activity.
d. Also, as per contract 10% price component of Foundation & erection activity will
be released after completion of corresponding stringing section. However due to
above reasons which are beyond control of GIL, stringing progress has been
delayed and for that total 10% amount of 372.73 Lacs are held up which
affected the cash flow of the project.
From the above, you will observe that the delay occurred on subject line were beyond
our control, and also incurred extra cost resulting in shortages of funds for completion
of project.

Competitive Bidding Route : Request for Issuance of time limit extension-reg.
Dear Sir,
With reference to the subject contract, we would like to bring the following to your kind notice:
1. As per contract, scheduled completion date of line work was 19.01.2016 and the trial
operation with taking over of line on 19.06.2016.
2. However due to the various reasons as elaborated in our letter ref. cited (3) above,
which were beyond the control of GIL such as (ii) Delay in Supply of stubs & Towers, (ii)
Delay in Supply of line materials, (iii) Introduction of 3.5M depth Foundation, (iv)
Increase in volume of work & Non Availability of Quantity Amendment, (v) Discrete
supply of Tower, (vi) Delay in clearance of locations near Ariyalur PGNMTL Substation,
(vii) Delay in clearing statutory approvals, (viii) ROW (ix) Interruption of work due to
intermediate rain and hence Provisional extension of time for the work under
subject contract had been accorded by you and up to 31.08.2016, vide your letter
reference cited (4), above.
3. Here again we would like to bring your kind attention to the Present status & completion
of balance work:
A. Supply:
(i) Supply of material under the scope of GIL completed in all respect.
(ii) Towers, B&N, Conductor, Hardware fittings & Accessories, Insulators and OPGW are
under the scope of PGNMTL. Last lot of material received in July’16 as against
scheduled in Sept’15 as per approved L2 schedule(month wise supply details is
shown in Annexure-I & II).
B. Physical Progress:

1No Ere Pending.(ii)

AP11A (2.8Km),
(iv)AP28 to
AP29(0.709Km)-2Nos
of PLX shutdown is
required to be
arranged.
(i) Foundation: Till 30th April’16 we had completed 267 foundation and only 4locations
(AP15/1, AP2, AP1 & 1/1) were pending in addition to the ROW faced till completion
of 267Foundation. Out of balance four AP15/1 completed on 12 th May’16.Locations
AP2 & AP1 were completed on 31st May’16 and 18th June’16 respectively
immediately after clearance of ROW. But the location no. 1/1 is still under ROW, due
which we are unable to complete the foundation of Part-I. Had these four locations
been cleared before, the entire foundation of Part-I would have been completed
much before.
(ii) Erection: As on 1st May’16, total 23Locations were balance for erection. As the
locations were under ROW, the work could not be taken up simultaneously in all
locations and we have restricted to deploy only 10erection gangs during May’16 and
again we had to demobilize few gang due to unavailability of work front. The tower
erection at Loc. No. 7/0 remain stopped since 18.05.2016 till 16.07.2016 due to
ROW and also due to mismatch of holes and issue in shortage supply, tower
erection at 2A/0 has suffered severely (work remained stopped from 08.06.16 till
25.06.16). On 16.7.2016, after clearance of ROW of Loc. No. 7/0, erection work
taken up and the same is under Progress. Now only one location 1/1 is pending for
erection, which is pending for foundation due ROW, as stated in ante Para.
(iii) Stringing: The progress of stringing suffered due to above reasons. Section AP3 to
AP4 (4.481Km) was under ROW which cleared only during July’16 & Work on
balance sections are under progress.
4. The above issues have dragged the completion of project to the fagend. This has been
discussed to you in every meeting. The copy of our regular correspondence & MOM
regarding the same is enclosed herewith for your ready reference.
5. At this juncture it can stated that the completion of balance work is totally dependent on
clearance of ROW for Loc. No. 1/1, which is beyond the control of GIL.
Gammon India Limited (T & D Business)
//4//
6. Further the commissioning of this Part of the Line is dependent on completion of Part-II.
Considering the clearance of ROW, quantum of balance work in Part-II, we anticipate
the completion of Part-I by Aug’16 and Part-II by Sept’16; and the testing,
commissioning & taking of line by PGNMTL in Dec’16.
In view of above, we appeal you for issuance of “Time limit extension from 01.09.2016 upto
31.12.2016, without imposition of Liquidated Damages & with the application of Price
Variation for extended period” for continuance of work.
Thanking you & assuring you our best services at all times.

Competitive Bidding Route : Request for Issuance of time limit extension-reg.
Dear Sir,
With reference to the subject contract, we would like to bring the following to your kind notice:
1. As per contract, scheduled completion date of line work was 19.01.2016 and the trial
operation with taking over of line on 19.06.2016.
2. Vide our letter no. GIL/RP/G-290/19050 dated 13.04.2016; we applied for time limit
extension up to 31st Aug’2016. However, same is still awaited from PGNMTL.
A. Supply:
(i) Supply of material under the scope of GIL completed in all respect.
(ii) Towers, B&N, Conductor, Hardware fittings & Accessories, Insulators and OPGW
are under the scope of PGNMTL. Last lot of material received in July’16 (Excl.
Insulator, still 730Nos of 210KN Long Rod Insulator is balance to supply), as against
scheduled in Sept’15 as per approved L2 schedule.
B. Construction:
i) 13.14Km is
balance for
above detailed
foundation &
Stringing Km 100.331 69.283 8.637 77.92 22.411
erection.
ii) Balance
stringing is under
progress.
4. Further, the construction work of the subject project substantially got delayed from
scheduled completion, due to the following reasons:
a) Delay in supply of Stubs & Towers: As per schedule, supply of stubs and towers were
to start from June’14 & Sept’14 respectively. However actual supply of stubs started in
Aug’14 and supply of angle type stubs was initiated in Dec’14, this has resulted in
foundation of gap locations and non-readiness of complete stretches for tower erection
and stringing. Similarly actual supply of suspension towers commenced in Jan’15 and
Angle type towers supply were started in June’15. However we have received the first
lot of DD type tower (WZ-II) during the month of Sep’2015. Month wise actual supply
statement compared to scheduled supply is enclosed in Annexure-I&II.
Gammon India Limited (T & D Business)
//3//
b) Delay in supply of Line materials: As per schedule, supply of Line materials; such as
Conductors, Insulators, hardware fittings, conductor Accessories & OPGW etc., were to
commence from Sept’14, however actual supply started during Mar’15. Supply of
OPGW was made during Feb’16. Actual supply of line materials (excl. Insulator, still
730Nos of 210KN Long Rod Insulator is balance to supply) completed in July’2016. The
month wise supply details are given in Annexure-I&II.
Impact: Delay in supply of Line materials by 6 months & delay in receipt of OPGW
by 17 months has resulted much delay in commencement and taking up of
stringing work at site.
d) Discrete supply of Tower: The supply of towers & required extensions were not made
either in line with L-2 scheduled or the site requirement. Therefore erection work could
not be carried out several times for want of necessary extensions, even though the
basic body was available. As stated in ante para (B-i) of this letter, inordinate delay in
supply of angle type towers as well stubs, had resulted in gap locations during the
execution of work. Also during the month of May’15 & June’15 no erection were carried
out due to unavailability of towers at site.
Impact: This has delayed the progress of work for around more than 3months.
e) Delay in clearance of ROW: We have faced Severe ROW at section 48B to 49A near
village Pithyakaplayam and between location no. 54 to 55 at village Belur. ROW of
AP54 to AP55 was cleared during 4th week of July’16. At AP 68 to AP69 route has been
diverted on 28.03.16 due to ROW and diverted route has been finalized/ freezed only
during 4th week of June’16. Similarly ROW in the section AP61 to AP64 was cleared
during 1st week of July’16.
f) Delay in getting of statutory approvals: The subject line is having of 8 Power line
crossings and 2 railway line crossings. All of these crossings have been cleared /
approved during Aug’15 & Oct’15 respectively.
Impact: Delay in taking up work at these locations as the type of tower could not
be freezed for more than 1 year.
g) Delay in getting Forest approvals: Total 10 Locations are falling in forest area which
has been cleared progressively only during the year 2016 for foundation. Example Loc.
No. 53/4 during April’16, 53/1 during Mar’16 & 58/4 were cleared during 3rd week of
July’16. Even as on today also, 53/1 is still to clear for taking up erection work.
5. Our regular correspondences & MOMs, regarding the above issues are enclosed for
your reference.
6. From the above you will agree that, the reasons of delay in completion of project stated
above are beyond the control GIL.
7. However with huge mobilization of resources, your continued support and considering
field constraints, we expect to complete all the balance work by September’16,
commissioning and taking over of line by PGNMTL by Dec’16.
In view of above, we appeal you for issuance of “Time limit extension upto 31.12.2016,
without imposition of Liquidated Damages & with the application of Price Variation for

Competitive Bidding Route : Request for Issuance of time limit extension-reg.
Dear Sir,
With reference to the subject project we invite your kind attention to the following:
1. Schedule completion period of the subject project was as per contractual terms &
condition on 19.05.2016.
2. Based on the various delays beyond control of M/s. GIL, PGNMTL vide their letter no. SR-
II/C&M/PGNMTL/02(N-M)/ERE01/PTE-01/1423, dt.06.09.16, issued provisional time
extension upto 31.12.2016.
3. Construction of the subject line has been completed on 06.10.2016 and line has been
successfully tested & commissioned on 21.10.2016 (Ckt-I at 8.43 PM & Ckt-II at
9.25PM). The line is under commercial utilization by PGNMTL since then.
The Delay in completion of line within schedule time is mainly on account of the following
reasons which were beyond control of GIL, as detailed under:
1. Delay in Supply of Stub:- As per Schedule stub supply should have commenced from
Jun’14, but the first lot receipt at site on the Month of Aug’14. However the stub supply
including Raised Chimney stub has been completed in Feb’16 instead of Jun’15 as per
schedule. Impact 3 Months delay in start of foundation as well as further delay of 8
months in completion of foundation.
2. Delay in Supply of Tower & its B&N:- As per Schedule tower supply should have
commenced from Sep’14, but the first lot receipt at site in Jan’15. As per schedule the
supply was to be completed by M/s. Skipper Ltd for Suspension tower and M/s. ICCOM
for Tension towers by Aug’15 however actual tower supply completed in April’16,
however the 75MT shortages was supplied on 22.07.2016 by M/s. ICOMM.
Impact 5 Months delay in start of Erection activity as well as further delay of 11 months
in completion of erection.
3. Delay in Supply of Line Material:- As per schedule we had to start stringing on the
month of Jan’15, for that the line materials should be available at site before Dec’14,
however the first lot of Conductor & Hardware receipt at site on May’15. As per
schedule all line materials supply should have been completed by Nov’15, but actual
supply completed Hardware By Mar’16, Insulator by Aug’16 & Conductor by June’16.
Impact 6 Months delay in start of Stringing activity as well as further delay of 7 months in
completion of stringing.
II. CONSTRUCTION:
1. Survey:
a. Delay in Approval of Survey & Quantity Finalization:- As per schedule the survey & tower
quantity should be finalized by Feb’15. But at actual we have received final approval of
survey on the Month of Sep’15. However due to non-finalization of bay position at
Nagapattinam S/S end Gantry to AP 3/0 has been hold by PGNMTL for construction
activity and same was cleared for construction by Mar’2016.
Impact: Delay in finalization of route thereby delay in taking up Foundation, erection &
stringing.
b. Delay in Clearance of statutory approval :- The subject line consists of 14 power line
crossings and 2 railway crossings. All of these crossings have been cleared in Aug’15 &
Oct’15. Details enclosed in annexure-I (copy enclosed).
Impact: Delay in taking up construction activity on 34 locations which are mainly tension
towers with higher extension.
2. Foundation:
a. As per schedule we need to be start foundation activity on the Month of July’14
and for that the first lot of stub should be reached at site by June’14, however
same has been receipt on Aug’14 and first lot of angle tower stub has been
received in the month of Nov’14.
b. Please refer annexure-II, regarding month wise section clearance received from
PGNMTL for foundation activity and annexure –III regarding month wise
foundation completion by GIL. Wherein you will observe that upto Jun’15 the
foundation activity is in line with the clearances received from M/s. PGNMTL.
However, subsequently from July’ 15 onwards, backlog has occurred due to ROW
encountered at Cashew nuts garden from section 3/0 to 8/0 wherein 48 locations
were affected and secondly due to delay in approval of statutory clearances
affected 34 nos locations. Further, due to non-finalization of bay position i.e. from
1/0 to 3/0, 7 nos locations were held up.
c. As per GCC clause Section-II, clause 1.1.2.1 employer i.e. PGNMTL is to be
provide structural drawings / BOM / foundation drawings to contractor. In this
regards please note that change of foundation design from 3.0M depth to 3.5M
depth were introduced by PGNMTL in month of May’2015 and design & drawing
were issued in Aug’2015 which has delayed the foundation/ erection / stringing
of said locations (28 Nos Angle type towers)
Although above hurdle, till 30th April’16 we had completed 267 foundation and only
4 locations (AP15/1, AP2, AP1 & 1/1) were pending in addition to the ROW faced till
completion of 267Foundation. Out of balance 4 location Loc No.15/1 completed on
12th May’16. Locations 2/0 & 1/0 were completed on 31st May’16 and 18th June’16
respectively immediately after clearance of ROW. But the location no. 1/1 was
cleared by PGNMTL by 02.09.2016 and foundation of the same has been completed
on very next day i.e. 03.09.2016.
2. Erection:
a. Erection activity scheduled to start from Oct’14 and for that first lot of tower
required to be reach at our site store by Sep’14, however we have received first
lot on the Month on Jan’15. Impact 4 months delay in start of Erection activity.
b. Also we have received first lot of angle towers in April’15 only and on account of
same gap location erection happened till that time & delay in erection of angle
towers. Due to delay in supply of angle towers, as well as non-availability of
desired extensions gap locations are increased which were repeatedly informed
you through our various communications (vide letter no. GIL/AL/G-289/17355
dated 06.02.15, GIL/PGCIL-NM/G-289&290/2014-15/48 dated 19.05.15,GIL/PGCIL-
NM/G-289&290/2014-15/60 dated 02.06.15, GIL/SS/G-289&290/17883 dated
04.07.15, GIL/SS/G-289&290/18169 dated 26.08.15 copy enclosed). This has also
resulted in frequent shifting our gangs which incurred additional cost as well as
affected the progress of erection activity.
Although above hurdle, as on April’16, total 23Locations were balance for erection. As
the locations were under ROW, the work could not be taken up simultaneously in all
locations and we have advised by PGNMTL deploy only 10 erection gangs during
May’16 in view of less work front availability and again we had to demobilize few
gang due to unavailability of work front. The tower erection at Loc. No. 7/0 was
stopped due to ROW from 18.05.2016 to 16.07.2016. Also due to wrong fabrications
tower erection at 2A/0 was stopped from 08.06.16 t0 25.06.16 and also tower erection
was severely affected due to shortages in tower supply approx.75 MT which was
supplied on 22. 07.2016 by M/s. ICCOM.
3. Stringing:
a. Stringing activity were schedule to start from Jan’15, but due to delay in supply of
angle towers stretches could not be ready to commence the stringing till April 15.
Also the first lot of Line material has been receipt at site on the month of May’15
which was scheduled in Dec’14.
b. After receipt of material and angle towers we have started our stringing activity
from section 38/0 to 39/0 – 1.568 Km on June’15. After completion of this section
we were only able to do paying out from 39/0 to 41/0 – 6.732 Km & the final sag
was pending due to non-availability of angle towers with desired extensions and
further no sections was clear for stringing till Aug’15 which we repeatedly
informed you through our communication (vide letter no. GIL/AL/G-289/17355
dated 06.02.15, GIL/PGCIL-NM/G-289&290/2014-15/48 dated 19.05.15,GIL/PGCIL-
NM/G-289&290/2014-15/60 dated 02.06.15, GIL/SS/G-289&290/17883 dated
04.07.15, GIL/SS/G-289&290/18169 dated 26.08.15 copy enclosed).
d. We herein also like to inform you that as advised by PGNMTL, we have deploy 4
nos. TSE along with gang & 4 Nos. manual gangs for expedite the stringing, but
due to severe ROW, tree cutting & delay in supply of angle towers with desired
extension, affected progress severely & also loss of resources.
Above delays have affected schedule completion which informed to you vide our various
communication & also during the review meetings we have communicated all the hurdle as
well as also deployed huge manpower for early completion. The copy of our regular
correspondence & MOM regarding the same is enclosed herewith for your ready reference.
With lots of joint efforts and with your support, we have completed line on 06.10.2016 and
same has been commissioned on 21.10.2016. However after commissioning carried out some
minor work such as ACD fixing, muffing, coping etc. are required to complete as per scope &
as advise by PGNMTL.
In view of above, we appeal you for issuance of “ Time limit extension for testing &
commissioning of line till 21.10.2016 and for minor work completion till 31.12.2016,
without imposition of Liquidated Damages & with athe application of price variation for
extended period.
Kindly arrange to do the above needful on priority, please.
Thanking you & assuring you our best services at all times.

Line (Part-I) (with Hex Zebra Conductor) associated with Transmission System
pertaining to IPPs of Nagapattinam / Cuddalore Area: Package-A under Tariff Based
Competitive Bidding Route : Request for Issuance of time limit extension-reg.
Dear Sir,
With reference to the subject project we invite your kind attention to the following:
The Delay in completion of line within schedule time is mainly on account of the following
reasons which were beyond control of GIL, as detailed under:
1. Delay in Supply of Stub:- As per Schedule stub supply should have commenced from
Jun’14, but the first lot receipt at site on the Month of Aug’14. Also we received the first
lot of DD WZ-II stub in the month of Feb’2015 and all stub supply including Raised
Chimney stubs has been completed in Jan’16 instead of Jun’15 as per schedule.
Impact 3 Months delay in start of foundation as well as further delay of 8 months in
completion of foundation.
2. Delay in Supply of Tower & its B&N:- As per Schedule tower supply should have
commenced from Sep’14, but the first lot receipt at site in Jan’15. As per schedule the
supply was to be completed by M/s. Skipper Ltd for Suspension tower and M/s. ICCOM
for Tension towers by Aug’15. However 1st lot of DD WZ-II tower was supplied in the
month of Sep’2015 i.e only 1 set and 2nd lot of DD tower was supplied in the month of
Nov’15 and In total actual tower supply completed in July’16, however the 75MT
shortages was supplied on 22.07.2016 by M/s. ICOMM.
Impact 5 Months delay in start of Erection activity as well as further delay of 11 months
in completion of erection.
3. Delay in Supply of Line Material:- As per schedule we had to start stringing in the month
of Jan’15, for that the line materials should be available at site before Dec’14, however
the first lot of Conductor & Hardware receipt at site on May’15. As per schedule all line
materials supply should have been completed by Nov’15, but actual supply completed
Hardware By Mar’16, Insulator by Aug’16 & Conductor by June’16. Impact 6 Months
delay in start of Stringing activity as well as further delay of 7 months in completion of
stringing.
4. Discrete supply of Tower: The supply of towers & required extensions were made not in
line with the site requirement therefore many times for want of extension, inspite of
availability of basic tower erection could not be done. Also there is inordinate delay in
supply of angle type towers which resulted in gap locations during project period. Due
to non-availability of tower no tower was erected in the month of May’2015 &
June’2015. Impact: Due to same three months extra time required for work
completion as well as affected completion of tower erection as per planned
stringing section.
II. CONSTRUCTION:
1. Survey:
a. Delay in Approval of Survey & Quantity Finalization:- As per schedule the survey & tower
quantity should be finalized by Feb’15. But at actual we have received final approval of
survey on the Month of Sep’15. However due to technical clearance at Loc No. 68/2,
route has been changed between section 68/0 to 69/0. And same has been approved
on the month of Jul’16.
Impact: Delay in finalization of route thereby delay in taking up Foundation, erection &
stringing.
b. Delay in Clearance of statutory approval :- The subject line consists of 8 power line
crossings and 2 railway crossings. All of these crossings have been cleared in Aug’15 &
Oct’15. Details enclosed in annexure-I (copy enclosed).
Impact: Delay in taking up construction activity on 20 locations which are mainly tension
towers with higher extension.
c. Delay in Clearance of Forest :- The subject line consists forest area at section between
70/1 to 72/0 about 2.583 KM & 5 location and 99/1 to 100/0 about 1.385 km & 2 location.
As per schedule forest clearance should be receipt by Jun’2015. However same has
been received on Feb’2016 except location No. 58/4 which was cleared on 15.07.2016.
Impact: Delay in taking up construction activity on 7 locations which are mainly tension
towers with higher extension
2. Foundation:
a. As per schedule we need to be start foundation activity on the Month of July’14
and for that the first lot of stub should be reached at site by June’14, however
same has been receipt on Aug’14 and first lot of angle tower stub has been
received in the month of Dec’14.
b. Please refer annexure-II, regarding month wise section clearance received from
PGNMTL for foundation activity, wherein you will observe that we have received
all locations was progressively cleared by Sep’2015 instead of Feb’2015 as per
schedule. On that period we have already completed 203 nos locations upto
and 11 locations are in under progress and balance 58 location are hold for
various reason which details are given in annexure –III.
c. As per GCC clause Section-II, clause 1.1.2.1 employer i.e. PGNMTL is to be
provide structural drawings / BOM / foundation drawings to contractor. But due
to non-availability of special structure foundation drawings of raised chimney as
well as stub extender drawings. The same has already been informed to you
vide our letter No. GIL/SS/G-289/18250 dated 18.09.15 and vide email dated on
26.08.15 & 09.10.15 (copy enclosed).
Rather than above we also used Ropeway to transfer the material at loc No.
71/1 & 71/2.
e. We have faced Severe ROW at section 48B to 49A near village Pithyakaplayam
and between location no. 54 to 55 at village Belur. ROW of AP54 to AP55 was
cleared during 4th week of July’16. At AP 68 to AP69 route has been diverted on
28.03.16 due to ROW and diverted route has been finalized/ freezed only during
4th week of June’16. Similarly ROW in the section AP61 to AP64 was cleared
during 1st week of July’16. Impact: Delay in taking up Foundation, Erection (at
18Locations) & Stringing (around 6.00 KM), frequent idling of gangs, incurring
additional cost to company.
3. Erection:
a. Erection activity scheduled to start from Oct’14 and for that first lot of tower
required to be reach at our site store by Sep’14, however we have received first
lot on the Month on Jan’15. Impact 4 months delay in start of Erection activity.
b. Also we have received first lot of angle towers in Jun’15, i.e only DB & DC tower.
The first lot of DD tower was supplied on Sep’15 and on account of same gap
location erection happened till that time & delay in erection of angle towers. Due
to delay in supply of angle towers, as well as non-availability of desired extensions
gap locations are increased which were repeatedly informed you through our
various communications (vide letter no. GIL/AL/G-289/17355 dated 06.02.15,
GIL/PGCIL-NM/G-289&290/2014-15/48 dated 19.05.15,GIL/PGCIL-NM/G-
289&290/2014-15/60 dated 02.06.15, GIL/SS/G-289&290/17883 dated 04.07.15,
GIL/SS/G-289&290/18169 dated 26.08.15 copy enclosed). This has also resulted in
frequent shifting our gangs which incurred additional cost as well as affected the
progress of erection activity.
c. After receipt of first lot of DA tower -48 set on the Month of Jan’15, we are
immediately deployed our erection gang but after 3 month completion of 47 nos
tower erection we were forced to demobilize our erection gang for three months
due to non-supply of further tower.
c. We also want to inform you that upto Feb’2016 we have completed 226 nos
foundations and 181 nos erection but we are only able to complete stringing of
17 km due to non-availability of stringing stretches for non-clearance of
foundation at hold locations & non-availability of desired angle towers &
extension.
d. We herein also like to inform you that as advised by PGNMTL, we have deploy 3
nos. TSE along with gang & 5 Nos. manual gangs for expedite the stringing, but
due to severe ROW, tree cutting & delay in supply of angle towers with desired
extension, affected progress severely & also loss of resources.
e. We also want to inform you that, after deployment of huge resources we are
faced problem of gang idling due to ROW & shutdown problem. Details are as
under –
i) Due to ROW at section 48A to 48B our stringing gang was sitting idle which
informed you vide email dated 12.04.2016.
ii) We were also demobilized our stringing from section 93A/0 to 93A/2 to 94/0
to 95/0 on instruction of PGCIL representative for non-payment of
compensation at loc no. 93A/1 which informed you vide email dated
06.04.2016.
iii) We also faced problem of gang idling due to non availability of shutdown
timely at section 91/0 to 92/0 which informed you vide email dated
23.04.2016.
Above delays have affected schedule completion which informed to you vide our
various communication & also during the review meetings we have communicated all
the hurdle as well as also deployed huge manpower for early completion. The copy of
our regular correspondence & MOM regarding the same is enclosed herewith for your
ready reference.
With lots of joint efforts and with your support, we have completed line on 20.10.2016
and same has been commissioned on 21.10.2016. However after commissioning
carried out, revetment work at 11 nos location were balance to take up in which we
have received approval of 4 locations on 23.09.2016 and balance 7 location approval
are yet to pending from PGCIL which expect to receive by Feb’17 end. We have
already deployed our gangs for revetment work and one location revetment was
completed & 2 are in under progress.
In view of above, we appeal you for issuance of “ Time limit extension for testing &
commissioning of line till 21.10.2016 and for balance revetment & other minor work
completion which does not affect the satisfactory operation of commissioned line, till
31.05.2017, without imposition of Liquidated Damages & with the application of price
