NOTE:
1) The powers for extension of time or waiving off ground rent may be exercised subject to the condition that the railway has suffered no loss by such extension or waiving. The facts
must be recorded in writing in each case. In case of contracts entered into by a higher authority, COS cannot exercise this power unless he is specifically authorized to do so in
terms of the contract.
2) Depot officers or Sr.DMM ( for P. way scrap and other line lots) can extend delivery period upto 30 days on payment of ground rent for removal of sold lots of scrap.
3) These powers can be exercised without finance concurrence.
4) Free delivery time shall be maximum 40 days ( for depots lotes) and 50 days (for P. way scrap and other line lots)from the date of auction. This time can be extended upto 65
days by COS/CMM at the time of auction depending on complexity of lot or even after auction in case Railway administration is responsible for delay. However, beyond 65 days,
delivery can be given only after imposing ground rent. In exceptional circumstances when delay is purely due to fault of Railway Administration, delivery time can be extended
without ground rent with personal approval of GM/AGM.
5) For P. way scrap and other line lots, the powers to extend delivery period from 50 days to 65 days without ground rent, in deserving cases, the powers delegated to COS/CMM will
also be exercised by ADRM in division for delivery of all types of line lots where auction is conducted by Divisional officers.
6) Earnest money shall stand forfeited if balance sale value is not deposited within 40 or 15 days (for P. way scrap and other line lots) and within 35 or 15 days (for depot scrap) as
the case may be from the date of auction.
7) Balance sale value is to be deposited within 10 days for lots upto and including Rs. 3 lakhs and within 15 days for more.
8) In cases which requires more time for cutting like bridge girders, microwave towers etc., CMM/Sales at HQ will be empowered to allow the free delivery period of that lot as 80
days. However, this free delivery period should be fixed in advance on recommendations of auction conducting officer duly recording proper justification for such enhanced free
delivery period and should be published in the catalogue in advance as a special condition of sale so as to maintain equity of sales.
