ensure the following:
(a) (i) Total value of work to be assigned to sub-contractor(s) shall not be more than 50% of total

measurement books by railway, duly accepted by contractor. Railway prepares ‘on
account/final contract certificate’ for the payable amount based on the work
executed and the rates quoted by the contractor duly deducting various statutory
taxes like-work contract tax/service tax/royalties/income tax etc., as per applicable
rates. Further, railways deposit the statutory deductions themselves to the
concerned authorities.
2. With GST act in force, it will be the responsibilities of service providers

(i.e. contractors) to submit the invoice (bill) segregating the GST component from
the Gross amount of work executed.
3. Railways are therefore advised to follow the procedure as mentioned below

while dealing with contractor’s payment, once GST is applicable:
(A) (i) All works contracts are to be provided with goods/service code based on the
type of contract. In case contract consist of both goods &service, then

176
Western Railway
Construction
(ii) The ‘on account/final contract certificate’ shall be prepared by the Railway
on the basis of quantity of work executed and agree mental rates, duly
segregating the GST component as detailed in para (iii)below:
(iii) Since the agree mental rates of contracts are inclusive of all taxes as per
clause 37 of GCC 2022, the calculation of ‘Gross amount of work executed’
‘Amount of work executed excluding GST amount’ and ‘GST amount’ in the
‘on account/final contract certificate’ shall be done as under:
Let Z = Gross amount of work executed on the basis of quantum of

work executed and agree mental rates.
X = Amount of work executed excluding GST amount
Y = GST amount as per applicable GST rate for that
Goods/service code.
R = Percentage rate of GST for that goods/service code.
Then, Z=X + Y, Y=X*R/100
(iv) Percentage rate of GST for various types of goods/service as finalized by

GST council can be downloaded from the website www.cbec.gov.in.
(B) (i) Once the ‘on account/ /final contract certificate ‘is prepared by the Railway
and communicated to contractor, the contractor shall submit invoice (bill) on
his Letter head duly segregating the ‘Amount of work executed excluding GST
amount’ and ‘GST amount’ (i.e., “X” & “Y” as mentioned in para 3 (A)(iii)
above) along with Invoice No. (bill No.) and all other details required under
GST act. The sample GST compliant invoice is annexed herewith.
(ii) In case contractor is liable to be registered under GST Act, Railway

shall pay to the Contractor ‘Gross Amount of work executed’ (i.e., “Z” as
mentioned in para3A(iii) above) duly deducting all other leviable taxes like
I/Tax, labourcess, royalty etc., as applicable. Contractor shall be liable to pay
‘GST amount’ to respective authority himself. Whereas, railway shall deposit
all other taxes deducted to concerned authority as is being done presently.
(iii) In case contractor is not liable to be registered under GST Act, Contractor
shall be paid ‘Amount of work executed excluding GST amount’ (i.e. “X” as
mentioned in para 3A(iii) above) duly deducting all other leviable taxes like
I/Tax, labourcess, royalty etc., as applicable. Railway shall deposit ‘GST
amount’ as well as all other taxes deducted to concerned authority.
(iv) In case any need arises to modify the Invoice (Bill) due to any reason,

Circuits which release routes for interlocking shall be controlled by slow
B operating relays, so that any inadvertent operation of track circuit due to a surge
or other factors will not result in the release of the routes or the interlocking.
All circuits shall be designed in such a way, that the relays picked up for clearing
any signal are proved to have de-energized or normalized before the route or
C
route section restored to normal. Also, it shall not be possible to re-clear the
route, if the entire route or part of the route set is not released.
It shall be possible to release a route in emergency after suitable time delay, with

overlap points may be released simultaneously along with the main route.
6.1.2.5 Signal Control Circuits:

ii) Concerned route is set and locked.
iii) All tracks are clear not only up to the next signal ahead but also 120 mtr.

fulfilled.
In Junction Route Indicators the Yellow aspect of the signal applicable to the
diverging route must be displayed only after proving that at least 3 out of 5
186
Western Railway
Construction
junction indicator bulbs/ route LED lamps are lit. The signal shall be maintained
at, or returned to ‘ON’ aspect in case 3 or more lamps / route LED lamps are not
lit.
Calling on Signal
Calling on signal shall be capable of being taken ‘OFF´ only when the main
signal cannot be taken ‘OFF’ due to track relay not picking up due to any reason
and the train has come to a stop and has been waiting for a pre-determined time
of 2 minutes. The ‘Calling on’ signal shall comply with all conditions governing
the clearing of a main signal, except the following: ⎯
Calling on signal should be capable of being taken ‘OFF’ without setting of
points in the overlap.
i) Every operation to take ‘OFF’ the ‘Calling on’ signal shall be counted by
an electric counter on the panel.
C ii) ‘Calling on’ signal shall be restored to ‘ON’ automatically when the track
circuit immediately in rear of the stop signal below which the ‘Calling
on’ signal is placed is cleared by the train or all sub-routes over which the
‘Calling on’ reads have been released after the passage of the train. It
shall not assume the ‘OFF’ aspect again unless the process of clearing it
is repeated.
iii) Calling on signal shall display miniature yellow light for the ‘ÒFF’ aspect
and shall show no light for ‘ON’ aspect.
iv) The calling-on signals shall use the LED signal lamp as per latest RDSO
specification RDSO/SPN/153/2011 (Rev.4.1) or latest with latest
amendments.

(II) The circuits shall be so designed that ⎯
i) The failure of a lamp of a colour light signal shall always cause the signal
to display a more restrictive aspect than intended. (Cascading).
ii) In the event of a lamp of the red aspect of the signal failing, the signal
next in rear shall display a red aspect. (Red lamp protection).

1 GENERAL
Nimach-Ratlam Section is 132.92 Km long RE Single Line (BG) section of Ratlam

Division under Western Railway.
The Tender is invited in connection of works associated with Project of “Doubling of BG
a Line between NIMACH-RATLAM” which was sanctioned through Rly Brd vide Letter
No.2019/W-I/WR/DL/DPR/NMH-RTM/Pt. dtd. 07.10.2021. Under this project, double line
working with all modern techniques will be provided at 13 existing stations along with
provision of 05 no New IBS.
Existing S&T systems: At present there are 13 stations in RTM-NMH sections which
are working with MACS signalling. In this section, 04 stations (NMH, HKL, PIP, BRLA)
are provided with Electronic Interlocking System, whereas 09 stations (MLG,
b
MDS,DLD,KCNR, DOD,JAO,NAM,DHWS&RTM) are provided with Route setting type
Panel interlocking/RRI. All Stations have BPAC with UFSBI, SSDAC, & DC Track
Circuiting. Existing power supply consists of IPS arrangement.
Scope of this S&T work under Doubling Project: Under doubling work between RTM-
NMH, New hot standby Electronic Interlocking will be provide at 08 stations (MLG, MDS,
DLD, KCNR, DOD, JAO, NLI, &DHWS). Alteration in existing EI will be done at 03
stations (HKL, PIP, and BRLA) and Introduction of IBS working in 05 no Block sections
c (NMH-HKL, HKL-MLG, PIP-MDS, KCNR-DOD & DOD-JAO). All stations will be
commissioned with Absolute block working (EI/UFSBI based) along with Axle Counters,
DC Track Circuiting, IRS Point Machines & MACLS. All IBH will be commissioned with
dual track detection by MSDAC. At every station and IBH, Dual standby power supply
arrangements will be provided through IPS and Conventional Systems.
This tender is invited for

1) Provision of New hot standby Electronic Interlocking at 08 stations
2) Alteration in Existing Electronic Interlocking at 03 Stations
3) Provision of IBS working at 05 Sections. Two IBS system shall be EI based and
d three IBS shall be conventional relay based.
4) Various Indoor at 11 stations and Outdoor installations at 5 IBS.
5) Alteration in new EI at stations where PHASE Working will be introduced in
connection of doubling as per planning of phases of doubling section to
open.
