(b) After evaluation, responsive bids will be classified in one of the following three groups: (1) Group A: bids offering goods manufactured in India if the bidder shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrowers and the Bank that the manufacturing cost of such goods includes a value added in India equal to at least 20% of the ex- factory bid price of such goods. (2) Group B: all other bids offering goods manufactured in India. (3) Group C: bids offering any other goods. (c) All evaluated bids in each group shall be first compared among themselves, excluding any customs duties and other import taxes on goods to be imported and any sales or similar taxes on goods to be supplied domestically, to determine the lowest evaluated bid of each group. Such lowest evaluated bids shall then be compared with each other, and if, as a result of this comparison, a bid from group A or group B is the lowest, it shall be selected for the award. (d) If, as a result of the comparison under paragraph (c) above, the lowest bid is a bid from group C, all group C bids shall be further compared with the lowest evaluated bid from group A after adding to the c.i.f. bid price of the imported goods offered in each group C bid, for the purpose of this further -24- comparison only, an amount equal to: (i) the amount of customs duties and other import taxes which a non-exempt importer would have to pay for the importation of the goods offered in such group C bid; or (ii) 15% of the c,i.f. bid price of such goods if said customs duties and taxes exceed 15% of such price. If the group A bid in such further comparison is the lowest, it shall be selected for the award; if not, the bid from group C which as a result of the comparison under paragraph (c) is the lowest evaluated bid shall be selected.
