There can be many grounds on which a company can be blacklisted by MP PWD. The MP PWD have made distinguished rules and laid grounds for debarment to bring transparency in the system. Some common grounds and circumstances for debarring of a company are as follows:

1. There are sufficient & strong reasons to believe that the contractor or his employees has been guilty of malpractices such as bribery corruption or fraud.
2. Pilfering or unauthorized use or disposal of Government materials issued for specific works.
3. Where security considerations including suspected disloyalty to the state so warrant the blacklisting order.
4. Misbehaviour or threatening of departmental and supervisory officers during execution of work or tendering process.
5. Involvement in any sort of tender fixing.
6. Constant non-achievement of milestones on insufficient and imaginary grounds
7. Non-adherence to quality specifications despite being pointed out.
8. Persistent and intentional violation of important conditions of contract.
9. Submission of false/fabricated/forged documents for consideration of a tender.

However, it is to be noted that grounds are not limited to only these.
