Tender Market Reports

Where government tender activity actually sits right now — live counts by sector and by state, measured across the portals we read, and refreshed daily.

Most public commentary on Indian government procurement is annual, aggregated and a year old by the time it is published. This section is the opposite: current counts of live tenders, broken down by the categories and states a supplier would actually filter on, taken from the corpus we maintain across the national and state procurement portals.

The figures on this page are generated at request time from that corpus. They describe where opportunities are open now — which is the question a bidder deciding where to compete is actually asking.

Monthly market reports

A fixed report per completed month — tender counts, values, top sectors, states and ministries, with methodology. Unlike the live figures below, a published month's numbers don't change.
