2.0 Scope of Work: The detail of work for PTPS, DCRTPP and RGTPP is given in

Annexure-A.

3.0 Variable Remuneration / Deduction

3.01 The weight of coal received at Power Stations is generally found lesser than the billed

weight. Such a difference is caused due to short loading at the loading point or en-route

pilferage or both. The firm shall take all necessary measures to minimize the difference,

which is generally described as Transit Loss or shortage en-route or loss of coal during

transit. The payments/ deductions are directly linked to the performance as per

Annexure-B (Section-B) for PTPS, DCRTPP and RGTPP which shall be worked out Coal Company wise/ Plant wise on monthly basis.

3.02 The Average percentage shortage during the month between billed weight and

actual weight received on monthly basis Coal Company wise / Plant wise will decide the

remuneration/ deductions and shall be calculated as under:-

Average Percentage

Shortage during the

month

(Total billed weight of coal as per RRs after

adding quantity of all the rakes received during

the month – Total actual weight of coal received

after adding quantity of all the rakes received

during the month) X 100

= ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total billed weight of coal as per RRs after adding

quantity of all the rakes received during the month

Billed Weight = Dispatched weight of coal at loading end. However, weight of coal in the wagons consigned to PTPS, DCRTPP and RGTPP but not reached at destinations of PTPS, DCRTPP and RGTPP would be excluded for the purpose of calculating transit losses. The coal quantity in unconnected wagons/ pilot wagons received at PTPS, DCRTPP and RGTPP shall not be considered for the purpose of calculating remuneration/ penalty of transit losses.

In case %age of transit losses comes in (-) minus, Coal Company wise/ Plant wise on monthly basis, will be treated as zero % for calculation of multiplication factor (P) as per Table 1 of Package No.1 (Transit Loss Minimization) of ANNEXURE-B. The calculation shall be based on coal receipt during the calendar month.

Actual weight will be as per weighment of coal rakes/ wagons at respective power station as per clause 4.02. Note-A:

i. The quantity of stone (+250 mm) received above 0.25 % for DCRTPP , 0.30% for

PTPS & 0.15% for RGTPP of the billed quantity shall be reduced from the actual

weight received for the purpose of calculation of loss of coal in transit on monthly

basis coal company wise and plant wise. Total stone (+250 mm) quantity

received in a month will be apportioned on pro-rata basis of the billed quantity

Coal Company wise and Plant wise.

ii. If the quantity of stones (+250mm) exceeds 0.25 % for DCRTPP, 0.60% for

PTPS & 0.15% for RGTPP then penalty @ Rs.100 per MT will be imposed on

excess quantity of stones/boulders.

iii. If the quantity of stones (+250mm) reduced below 0.25 % for DCRTPP, 0.30%

for PTPS & 0.15% for RGTPP then incentive @ Rs.50 per MT for quantity of

stones/boulders (+250mm) will be paid to the coal agent.

Note-B:

For the reference purpose of prospective bidder(s) the average %age of

stones/boulders(+250 mm) of last 5 years plantwise is as under:-

a. PTPS, Panipat = 0.95% b. DCRTPP, Yamunanagar = 0.36% c. RGTPP, Hisar (Average for 3 years) = 0.13%

3.03 The firm will submit monthly bills in the office of XEN/ Fuel of respective power plant for

verification & payment purpose.

Page 14 of 42

3.04 Net payments/ deductions will be worked out Plant wise on monthly basis.

3.05 The remuneration will be paid on actual weight received at power plants irrespective of

billed quantity and similarly deduction will be worked out on billed weight basis Coal

Company wise/ Plant wise.

This clause will be applicable for calculation of remuneration/ penalties for transit

losses only. However, the remuneration/ deduction will be worked out as per Annexure-

B for the purpose of Payment/ service charges & penalties.

4.00 Weighment at Unloading End.

4.01 Weighment at unloading end shall be done Coal Company wise/ Plant wise.

4.02 Generally all the wagons received shall be weighed at unloading end and in case 100%

weighment is not carried out due to any reason/s, the weighment for payment of service

charges will be as under:

(a) If a rake is partially weighed at power station‟s weighbridge and at least 25 % of total

wagons of a rake are weighed, the average weight per wagon of weighed wagons

will be applied on the remaining unweighed wagons for calculating total actual weight

of rake.

(b) If a rake is partially weighed at TPS weighbridge/s less than 25 % of total wagons

are weighed, the actual weight shall be calculated on the basis of average actual

weight per wagon of all the wagons received during the month from same colliery

and weighed at TPS. In case no rake is received from the same colliery during the

month under consideration, the average actual weight per wagon last received

during a month of same colliery will be the basis for calculating actual weight at

Thermal Power Station end.

(c) In case of a new colliery if actual weight is beyond measurable under provision of

clause no. 4.02 (a) & (b), the average shortage of complete month for that particular

coal company shall be applied for working out the actual weight.

(d) In case of a new colliery, if actual weight could not be worked out under clause 4.02

(a, b & c), then average shortage of complete month of last receipt of that coal

company shall be applied for working out the actual weight.

4.03 The remuneration/ deduction under the contract will not be applicable on the rakes

consigned to PTPS/ DCRTPP/ RGTPP but diverted to other Power Station(s) other than

HPGCL and vice versa including the missing, unconnected wagons.

4.04 In case of any dispute regarding weighment of coal/ working of weigh bridges at HPGCL

Power Stations, the firm shall refer the dispute in writing to the Chief Engineer PTPS/

DCRTPP /RGTPP or any officer nominated by him, whose decision in the matter will be

remuneration/ penalty will be worked for the same at the original consigned station. The

adjustment of stones/ boulders received at the power stations where the coal rake/s are

diverted / rebooked shall be worked out by the concerned fuel section in next month and

shall intimate the same to original consignee at the earliest.

5.0 Remuneration/ Recovery for Default.

5.01 Net payments/ deductions will be worked out Coal Company wise/ Plant wise on

monthly basis.

5.02 The remuneration payable or penalty recoverable will be calculated on monthly basis

Plant wise and will be reconciled HPGCL as a whole on monthly basis. If total

deduction in any month exceeds the remuneration such a difference will be carried

forward and recovered from future bills/ any pending payments of the firm or otherwise

from his pending payments available with PTPS/ DCRTPP/ RGTPP. HPGCL shall have

a right to adjust the penalty of one power station from the remuneration due at other

power station in case the penalty exceeds the remuneration of any of Thermal Power

The coal agent will supply the Third Party Sampling & Testing results of the coal of the loading ends with in the specified period as per the relevant clauses of FSA/CSA. The remuneration & penalties will be governed as per clause No. 1.6 to 1.8 of Annexure-C (Scope of work for Sampling & Analysis)

Package No. 3 (Linkage materialization):

Collieries/sidings supplying coal to HPGCL Plants may be identified by the Coal Agent in

consultation with plant authorities, if necessary, for maximizing the maturity of coal for the

quarterly quantity. The bidder will quote in Rs. „R‟ per MT for materialization above 90% of

ACQ (from various Coal companies like CCL, ECL, MCL, NCL, WCL) and for BCCL above

100% of ACQ on monthly basis.

For ROM coal to be supplied by subsidiaries of Coal India Limited in reference to the

linkage as per FSA/CSA, the payment of services as per scope of work shall be regulated in

reference to linkage materialization as under:-

Table No.1 (in respect of coal supplies from CCL, ECL, MCL, NCL & WCL) Sr.No. Materialization Remuneration

i. For dispatched quantity of coal above 90% and upto

95% of the approved linkage in a calendar month.

@ 50% „R‟ per MT

ii. For dispatched quantity of coal above 95% of the

approved linkage in a calendar month limited to 100%.

@ „R‟ per MT

Table No.2 (in respect of coal supplies from BCCL only) Sr.No. Materialization Remuneration

i. For dispatched quantity of coal above 100% and upto 105% of the approved linkage in a calendar month.

@ 50% „R‟ per MT

ii. For dispatched quantity of coal above 105% of the approved linkage in a calendar month limited to 110%.

@ „R‟ per MT

Note A: Penalty will be charged at the rate Rs. „R‟ per MT from the Bidder/Firm for the shortfall quantity below 90% coal company wise & plant wise and above 100% without request of HPGCL in respect of coal supplies from CCL, ECL, MCL, NCL & WCL.

In case of BCCL, penalty will be charged at the rate Rs. „R‟ per MT for the shortfall quantity below 90% coal company wise & plant wise and above 110% without request of HPGCL. No remuneration/ penalty will be paid/ levied for quantity between 90% to 100%. Examples for calculation of Remuneration/Penalty in respect of coal supplies from coal companies:-

a. Case-1:- Remuneration for dispatched quantity of coal above 90% & upto 95% and above 95% & upto 100%. For linkage materialization say 94% in one month from any coal company.

Assumption: Suppose Rate of Remuneration = Rs. R per MT Monthly Scheduled Quantity (MSQ) = 10,000 MT Quantity dispatched from coal company = 9,400 MT % Materialization = 94% Quantity on which remuneration is to be paid= 4% i.e. 10,000 X 4 / 100 = 400 MT Remuneration to be paid = Rs. R/2 X 400

i. Calculation for remuneration above 95% @ R will be calculated on similar pattern.

Page 22: TENDER DOCUMENTS For Appointment of Coal Agent for ... · PDF fileAppointment of Coal Agent for supervision of loading, weighment of coal at loading points consigned to PTPS, Panipat;

Page 22 of 42

ii. Same pattern will also be followed in case of BCCL coal supplies as per slabs of Table No. 2.

b. Case-2:- Penalties calculation for shortfall quantity below 90% coal company-wise and plant-wise.

Assumption: Suppose Rate of Penalty = Rs. R per MT Monthly Scheduled Quantity (MSQ) = 10,000 MT Quantity dispatched from coal company = 8,800 MT % Materialization = 88% Shortfall Quantity on which penalty is to be levied = 2% i.e. 10,000 X 2/100 = 200 MT Penalty to be levied = Rs. R X 200

Note B:- i. Quantity shall be considered on dispatched basis as compared to the total

linkage allotted for ROM coal & Washed coal.

ii. If the Coal Agent is asked to regulate (reduce/increase) coal supplies to any

power station, the Monthly Scheduled quantity will be taken on prorata basis. For

this purpose written request from the concerned office of Chief Engineer/Fuel-

cum-Op, HPGCL, Panchkula would be mandatory.

iii. The Coal Agent shall supervise the supply of coal as per FSA/CSA signed with

CCL, BCCL, WCL, NCL,MCL &ECL. The supply shall be as per Monthly

scheduled Quantity & Annual Contracted Quantity. The coal agent shall be

remunerated/ penalized as above.

For the purpose of linkage materialization the monthly linkage would be reduced on prorata basis proportionately (duration wise) in case coal supplies are actually stopped on account of non-payment of freight/coal charges or/and slow down directions issued in writing by Chief Engineer/Fuel-cum-Op, HPGCL, Panchkula. Slow down/stoppage of coal supply/resumption of coal supply shall be effective after 4 days of message given by CE/Fuel-cum-Op, HPGCL, Panchkula to Railways/CIL & its subsidiaries companies.

iv. If the firm does not restrict the coal supply as per written message for slow down

then the excess coal quantity if supplied during that period will not be counted

towards penalty/remuneration of materialization.

v. For the purpose of coal dispatches beyond 100% of linkage materialization (to

increase the coal supplies) keeping in view the coal stock at

PTPS/RGTPP/DCRTPP, the necessary directions shall be issued in writing by

CE/Fuel-cum-Op, HPGCL, Panchkula and in this case 100% remuneration for

linkage materialization will be paid to the coal agent (for coal supplies from CCL,

ECL, MCL, NCL & WCL). However, in case of BCCL, for coal dispatches beyond

110% of linkage materialization, necessary directions shall be issued in writing by

CE/Fuel-cum-Op, HPGCL, Panchkula.

vi. For the purpose of calculation of linkage materialization for the period of slow

down/ non availability of advance Railway freight etc. the prorata quantity will be

considered in MT. The linkage materialization on the basis of no. of rakes will not

be considered.

vii.In case direction for slow down the supplies below ACQ/MSQ level are issued by

the HPGCL for a period more than 15 days, then that period will not be

considered for the services portion under this package.

viii. Monthly target for Materialization of coal supply from MCL to RGTPP, Hisar:-

Target of 45 rakes per month i.e.1,73,250 MT (@3850 MT per rakes) is fixed as

target for imposing penalty on the coal supplies from MCL. The penalty will be

applicable if the quantity dispatched is less than 1,73,250 MT. However,

remuneration shall be payable on the materialization as per above table.

B) PENALTIES Penalties will be charged from the bidder for deficiency in services rendered by him on the items listed as per details as follows:

1) Penalty will be charged from the bidder for excess transit loss as per table 1 under package number 1 for transit loss minimization.

2) Penalties due to lack of services on account of following: [i) Penal freight due to overloading (POL): The firm shall ensure that the wagons are not loaded beyond the permissible limits

so that penal freight is not levied by the Railways, if however due to any reason,

Page 23: TENDER DOCUMENTS For Appointment of Coal Agent for ... · PDF fileAppointment of Coal Agent for supervision of loading, weighment of coal at loading points consigned to PTPS, Panipat;

Page 23 of 42

penal freight is charged by railways , the same shall be shared by the firm & HPGCL in the ratio of 25:75.

The deduction on account of firms share shall be made from the firm‟s bill with respect to POL charges only.

ii) Wagon load dispatches: The firm shall ensure that coal is dispatched to HPGCL on full rake load basis. In

case HPGCL has to pay the freight for coal dispatches on wagon load basis, then the additional freight accrued to HPGCL because of difference between wagon load freight paid and train load freight payable shall be recovered from the firm.

iii) Late receipt of dispatch particulars: The firm shall fax/e-mail the data such RR No. & Date, date of loading, No. of

wagons, name of colliery, actual weight, POL quantity, specified wagon Nos. for identification of rakes, detail of un-weighed rakes etc to the respective plant authority before the arrival of rake to the respective power plant. In case such data is not made available to the plant authority before the arrival of rake, a penalty equal to Rs. 2500/- per rake will be imposed on the firm for deficiency in service.

iv) Dispatch of coal rakes on TO-PAY-Freight basis: The representative(s) of Coal Agent will remain present in the O/o concerned

railways at the time of preparation of RR and in case of a failure of the e-payment

transaction due to any reason he will immediately intimate to the HPGCL authorities

for the same. To avoid “To-Pay-RR”, coal agent will have to deposit Railway freight.

He will be remunerated @ Rs. 10,000/- per rake as incentive but if Railway issues

“To-Pay-RR” due to any reason then coal agent will be penalized at Rs. 4.00 Lac per

rake for maximum 2 rakes per day. If the coal agent deposited freight charges for

more than 2 rakes, he will be remunerated @ Rs. 10,000/- per rake but penalty will

be imposed limited to only 2 rakes per day. HPGCL shall reimburse the same to the

coal agent with charges, if any immediately latest by the next banking day through

RTGS on production of requisite documents (either through E-mail/FAX) irrespective

of his service bill status. In case HPGCL could not remit the due amount to the coal

agent on the same day, HPGCL shall also pay interest @15% per annum for the

period of actual payment made by coal agent to the railways.

3) Deduction of Sampling charges for Grade Slippage: In order to ensure good quality coal at HPGCL generating stations and to discourage the difference in billed GCV (loading end) and Power Station end GCV(testing lab at TPS) following incentive/ disincentive shall be applicable:-

a) If the Power Station end GCV results are same as that of billed GCV Band / Grade (loading end) i.e same GCV band then remuneration will be paid @2.0‟Q‟ (i.e. Sampling & Testing charges per rake).

b) If the Power Station end GCV results are found one GCV Band / Grade below the billed GCV band/Grade(loading end) in that case remuneration @‟Q‟ on account of sampling charges will be paid for that particular rake.

c) If the Power Station end GCV results are found below more than one billed GCV Band / Grade(loading end) in that case no remuneration on account of sampling charges will be paid for that particular rake. (for example if the billed GCV band is 4600-4900 and the results at unloading end fall in the band of 4000-4300, then no remuneration on account of sampling charges will be paid for that particular rake).

d) If the Power Station end GCV results are found below two or more than two GCV band/ Grade of billed GCV (loading end) in that case no remuneration on account of sampling charges will be paid for that particular rake(s) besides this a penalty @0.50‟Q‟ will also be imposed and deducted from the bills.

e) For Washery grade W-IV: If coal company billed for W-IV grade coal rakes and as per testing results of TPS lab, the percentage ash is found more than 38%, then it will be considered that there is grade/band slippage of more than one grade in that case no remuneration on account of sampling charges will be paid for that particular rake.

f) For Washery grade W-III: If coal company billed for W-III grade coal rakes and as per testing results of TPS lab, the percentage ash is found more than 35%, then it will be considered that there is grade/band slippage of more than one grade in that case no remuneration on account of sampling charges will be paid for that particular rake.

g) If any rake loaded by coal company is having ROM coal of multiple grades then slippage at unloading end shall be worked out on the basis of weighted average GCV/Ash content for the complete rake.

h) Coal Agent will ensure that ROM coal of appropriate grade/GCV bands (prescribed in FSA/CSA) is being loaded and dispatched to the concerned TPS. If the coal company raises the bill indicating higher grade/band of coal then it will be considered deficiency in services and coal agent will be penalized at the rate “R” per MT quoted for linkage materialization.

C) EVALUATION CRITERIA:

Based on the total linkage materialization, a total coal quantity of 142.00 Lac MT has been taken for evaluation of L-1 bidder.

Evaluation Formula = [ {Rate „P' quoted in Rs/MT X 1,42,00,000 X (1.7) } +{Rate „Q‟ quoted in Rs per sample X 3700 } + { Rate „R/2‟ quoted in Rs /MT X 07,50,000 + Rate „R‟ quoted in Rs /MT X 07,50,000 }]

Where

P =For Transit loss minimization (Package No. 1) - Rs per MT (total coal quantity of 142.00 Lac MT assumed to be received)

Q = Sampling & Testing (Package No. 2) - Rs per sample-sample means witnessing of Third Party Sampling and Analysis of rake at loading point and collection, preparation of sample & analysis at HPGCL Laboratories of same rake at unloading end of HPGCL.
