Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited (HMRL), the special purpose vehicle set up to implement the metro rail project in the city, had postponed the sale of Request for Qualification (RFQ) applications for global bids to July 24, according to municipal administration and urban development principal secretary and Hyderabad metro rail project chairman CVSK Sarma.

HMRL issued a notification inviting RFQ on July 16 after the Andhra Pradesh government cancelled the earlier contract awarded to Maytas-led consortium for failing to achieve financial closure despite a three-month extension. The bidding process for the 71-km rail route would be completed by November 15, 2009.
