The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has chosen AG Enviro Infra Projects in partnership with Jigar Transport Company and M. K. Enterprises. These contracts are vital for improving waste management in the city.

Contract Details

The first contract, worth Rs 684 crore, covers a 7-year period. AG Enviro Infra Projects, along with its partners, will be responsible for collecting and transporting around 650 metric tons of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) each day. This waste comes from the A, B, C, and D wards of Mumbai.

The second contract, valued at Rs 646 crore, also runs for 7 years. In this agreement, the same consortium will handle approximately 600 metric tons of MSW daily. This collection focuses on the N, S, and T wards of Mumbai.

Financial Implications & Scale

These contracts represent a substantial investment in Mumbai’s infrastructure. The combined value of the two contracts – Rs 1.33 crore – highlights the city’s commitment to modern waste management solutions.

The daily collection volumes (650 and 600 metric tons) demonstrate a significant scale of operation. This will require substantial logistical resources and operational expertise.

The 7-year duration of both contracts provides a long-term commitment to waste management planning and execution. It also allows for the potential for optimization and expansion of the system over time.

Effective waste management is essential for a thriving and healthy city.
