HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.6299 OF 2011 ORDER: The petitioner is an agency, undertaking the maintenance of Air Conditioners and other related equipments. For the year 2010-2011, it emerged as the successful tenderer for maintenance of Air Conditioners in R & B Department. The 1st respondent issued tender notice, dated 24-02-2011. Three tenders, including that of the petitioner, were received. However, the respondents have disqualified all of them. Thereafter, a fresh tender notice was issued on 08-03-2011. The petitioner contends that he became the authorized Dealer of Godrej Air Conditioners when the respondents insisted for the same in the previous year, and in the present tender notice, the expertise or experience in other makes of manufacturers such as, Carrier/Voltas/Accaire/Fedders Lloyd/LG/ Carrier Aircon etc., is insisted upon. The petitioner challenges the said condition. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Roads & Buildings. 3. The contract is one of maintenance of Air Conditioners and not for supply of the Air Conditioners of any particular make. The names of the manufacturers of the Air Conditioners that have already been installed, are mentioned in the tender notice. It is, but natural that the persons must have expertise in servicing the Air Conditions of all the makes mentioned in the notification. Admittedly, the petitioner did not file any proof of expertise in maintaining the Air Conditioners. 4. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J March 11, 2011. KTL
