Rule 20 TN Transparency in Tender Rules | 15-Day Bid Period Mandatory for Tenders Above ₹1 Crore; Non-Compliance Voids Process : Madras HC

Madras High Court rules that public tenders exceeding ₹1 crore must strictly adhere to a 15-day bid submission period under Rule 20 of the Tamil Nadu Transparency in Tender Rules. The Court held that reducing this period without recorded justification renders the tender process void, mandating fresh compliance by 30.06.2026 for affected tenders.
