in the prices of the materials, labour and when, due, shall be worked out based on the following provisions: 1) The base date for working out such escalation shall be the last date on which tenders

were stipulated to be received. 2) The cost of work on which escalation will be payable shall be reckoned as 85% of the

cost of work as per the bills, running or final and from this amount, the value of materials applied under clause 9 of this contract shall be deducted before the amount of compensation or escalation is worked out. In the case of materials brought to site for which any secured advance is included in the bill, the full value of such materials as assessed by the Regional Director of the concerned region or his nominee (and not the reduced amount for which secured advance has been paid) shall be included in the cost of work done for operation of this clause. Similarly when such materials are incorporated in the work and the secured advance is deducted from the bill, the full assessed value of the materials originally considered for operation of this clause should be deducted from cost of the work shown in the bill, running or final. Further the cost of the work shall not include any work for which payment is made under Clause 12A or 12B at prevailing market rates.

3) The components of materials, labour, P.O.L., etc. shall be predetermined for every work and incorporated in the conditions of contract attached to the tender papers and the decision of the Director, AMD in working out such percentages shall be binding on the contractor.

4) The compensation for escalation for materials and P.O.L. shall be worked out as per

the formulae given below;

a) VM = W x X x (MI-MIO) 100 MIO

VM = Variation in material cost i.e. increase or decrease in the amount

in rupees to be paid or recovered

W = Cost of the work done worked out as indicated in sub-para 2 above

X = Component of materials expressed as percent of the total value of work

MI-MIO = All India Wholesale Price Index for all commodities for the period under Reckoning

b) VF = W x Z x (FI-FIO) 100 FIO

VF = Variation in cost of fuel, oil and lubricant, increase or decrease in

rupees to be paid or recovered W = Value of work done, worked out as indicated in sub-para 2 above

Z = Component of P.O.L. expressed as a percent of total value of work as indicated under the special conditions of contract.

FI-FIO = Average index numbers of wholesale price for group (fuel, power, light and lubricants) as published weekly by the Economic Adviser to Government of India, Ministry of Industry for the period under reckoning, and that valid at the time of receipt of tenders, respectively.

5) The following principles shall be followed while working out the indices mentioned in

sub-para 4 above:

13

a) the compensation for escalation shall be worked out at quarterly intervals and shall be with respect to the cost of work done during the three calendar months of the said quarter. The first such payment shall be made at the end of three months after the month (excluding) in which the tender was accepted and thereafter at three months interval. At the time of completion of the work, the last period for payment might become less than 3 months, depending on the actual date of completion.

b) The Index (MI/FI etc) relevant to any quarter for which such compensation is paid shall be arithmetical average of the indices relevant to the three calendar months. If the period upto the date of completion after the quarter covered by the last such installment of payment, is less than three months, the index MI and FI shall be the average of the indices for the months failing within that period.

c) The base index, MIO and FIO etc. shall be the one relating to the month in which the tender was stipulated to be received.

6) The compensation for escalation for labour shall be worked out as per the formula

given below: a) VL = W x Y x (LI-LIO)

0 LIO VL = Variation in labour cost i.e. amount of increase or decrease

in rupees to be paid or recovered

W = Value of work done, worked out as indicated in sub-para 2 above

Y = Component of labour expressed as percentage of the total value of work

LIO = Minimum daily wage in rupees of an unskilled adult male mazdoor, as fixed under any law, statutory rule or order as on the last date on which tenders for the work were to be received

LI

= Minimum wage in rupees of an unskilled adult make mazdoor, as fixed under any law, statutory rule or order as applicable on the last day of the quarter previous to the one during which the escalation is being paid.

7) The following principles will be followed while working out the compensation as per

sub-para 6 above: A) the minimum wage of an unskilled male mazdoor mentioned in sub-para 6 above

shall be the higher of the following two figures; namely these notified by Government of India, Ministry of Labour and those notified by the local administration, both relevant to the place of work and the period of reckoning.

B) The escalation for labour also shall be paid at the same quarterly intervals when escalation due to increase in cost of materials and/or P.O.L. is paid under this clause. If such revision of minimum wages takes place during any such quarterly intervals, the escalation compensation shall be payable, for work done in all quarters subsequent to the quarter in which the revision of minimum wages takes place.

C) Irrespective of variations in minimum wages of any category of labour, for the purpose of this clause, the variation in the rates for an unskilled adult male mazdoor alone shall form the basis for working on the escalation compensation payable on the labour component.

8) In the event, the prices of materials and/or wages of labour required for the

execution of works decrease/s, there shall be downward adjustment of the cost of work so that such price of materials and/or wages of labour shall be deductible from

14

the cost of work under this contract and in this regard the formulae herein before stated under this clause 10B shall mutatis mutandis apply, provided that:

a) No such adjustment for the decrease in the price of materials and/or wages of

labour afore mentioned would be made in case of contracts in which the stipulated period of completion of the work is eighteen months or less;

b) The Director, AMD shall otherwise be entitled to lay down the principles on which

the provision of the sub-clause shall be implemented from time to time and the decision of the Director in this behalf shall be final and binding.

contracts where provisions of this clause are applicable but in cases where provisions of this clause are not applicable, the provisions of clause 10A will become applicable.
