Category research · Subscriber access
Who buys it. Who wins it. At what price.
GeM publishes the bids and it publishes the awards. It joins neither to the other. We do — category by category — so a bidder can see the buyers worth chasing, the sellers already taking the volume, the thresholds that decide eligibility, and the clauses that throw bids out.
Inside every report
Five questions, answered from the record rather than from opinion
Who buys, and how often
Every buying organisation active in the category, ranked by order count and value, with the months they buy in.
Who wins, and how much
The sellers taking the largest share of awards, their order counts and values, and how concentrated the category is.
What the tenders demand
Turnover thresholds, experience requirements, EMD levels and scoring weights, read from the bid documents themselves.
Where bids are lost
The disqualification clauses that recur in this category, quoted from the tenders they appear in.
Price bands
Where award values cluster, so a bidder knows what a competitive number looks like before quoting.
- 162,789
- Order value, current FY
- 2,106,109
- Orders, current FY
- 45.67
- MSE share of order value

No report is published until the award data behind it has been checked
A seller league table is a claim about named companies' revenue. We will not publish an estimated one to make this page look fuller. The categories below are the ones being built first — every bid behind them is already being read.
Manpower Outsourcing Services
SoonThe largest services category by bid count, and the one where minimum-wage arithmetic decides the winner.
Laboratory & Scientific Instruments
SoonGlobal tenders, OEM authorisation, and specification tables that decide qualification before price.
Cables & Electrical Equipment
SoonHigh-volume, standards-bound, and dominated by a handful of repeat winners.
Office & Copier Paper
SoonCommodity buying at scale, where the whole contest is landed price and delivery terms.
Vehicle & Machinery Spares
SoonDefence and railways buy these constantly; eligibility turns on past supply to the same buyer.
Housekeeping & Facility Services
SoonStatutory compliance — EPF, ESI, bonus — is where bids are disqualified, not on price.
Access
Category research is for subscribers
The written analysis on this site stays free — that is the part that helps everyone understand how procurement works. The category record is different: it takes weeks of collection per category and it tells a bidder where the money actually goes. That one is paid.
Tell us which category you sell into and we will build it next, and price it before we start. Early subscribers shape the order the categories are researched in.
How the data is built
- 01Every live bid in the category is collected from the portal, with the documents it links to.
- 02Figures are extracted by fixed rules, each carrying the page and sentence it came from.
- 03Award records are joined to the bids to show who won, at what value.
- 04Nothing is published that cannot be traced back to a source document.
