been granted under Clause 17 A of the General Conditions of Contract. However, where extension of time
has been granted due to contractor’s failure under Clause 17 – B of the General Conditions of Contract,
price adjustment shall be done as follows.
a) In case the indices increase above the indices applicable to the last month of original completion
period or the extended period under clause 17 A, the price adjustment for the period of extension
granted under clause 17 B shall be limited to the amount payable as per the Indices applicable to
the last month of the original completion period or the extended period clause 17 A of the General
Conditions of Contract.
In case the Indices fall below the indices applicable to the last month of original/ extended period of
completion under clause 17 A, as the case may be then the lower indices shall be adopted for the price
adjustment for the period of extension under clause 17 B of the General Conditions of Contract.
Price variation during extended period of contract:Price variation is payable/recoverable during the extended period of the contract also, provided the price
variation clause was part of the original contract and the extension has been granted on administrative

“Materials supplied free by the Railway to the contractors will not form part of the value of the contract
entered into and will fall outside the preview of the price variation clause”.
Price Variation clause (PVC) shall be applicable for tenders of value more than Rs.50 lakhs irrespective of
the contract completion period and PVC shall not be applicable to tenders of value less than Rs. 50 lakhs.
The revised weight age would be applied on the value arrived at after deducting the cost of steel and
cement from the total contract value.
The tender schedule should have separate items for ‘Supply of Steel’ and supply of “cement’ for RCC/PSC
work to know the cost of steel and cement actually consumed at any given point of time.
price variation implies both increase as well as decrease in input prices and therefore price variation during
the currency of the contract may result in extra payment or recovery as the case may be.
The demands for escalation of the cost may be allowed on the basis of provisional indices made available by
the Reserve bank of India. Any adjustment needed to be done based on the finally published indices is to
be made as and when they become available.
In case the indices fall below the indices applicable to the last month of the original / extended period of
completion under clause 17 (3) as the case may be then the lower indices will be adopted for price
adjustment for the period of extension under clause 17 (4) of the general condition of the contract.
