Two more projects for the construction of Phase-A and Phase-B works for JNV Shahdara and JNV Narela in Delhi have also been offered to NBCC.  

These contracts, also to be executed as a PMC on a deposit work basis, are each valued at approximately Rs422m. 

The fifth order, from the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India, involves the renovation of additional office space on the seventh floor of Mayur Bhawan, New Delhi.
