Frequently Asked Questions

What is OEM Brand Creation on GeM?

OEM Brand Creation allows original equipment manufacturers or registered trademark owners to establish their brand on GeM. Once approved, the OEM can list master products and control authorization for authorized resellers.

How long does GeM Brand Approval take?

Typically, GeM brand approval takes 3 to 7 working days, provided the trademark registration certificate, brand authorization letter, and brand domain/website meet all portal requirements.

What is "Reseller Pair-it" catalogue listing?

If an OEM has already created a catalogue for a specific model, resellers can "pair" their offering with the existing master listing using an OEM Authorization Code without filling specs from scratch.

Why does my catalogue product keep getting rejected?

Common causes include: non-white background photos, missing mandatory technical parameters (Q3/Q4), incorrect model numbers, or mismatch between uploaded datasheets and entered attributes.

Can service providers list services on GeM?

Yes, GeM supports a vast array of service categories including Manpower Outsourcing, IT Services, Vehicle Hiring, Sanitation, and Maintenance. SLA terms and unit pricing must be configured per GeM service norms.

What are Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 parameters on GeM?

These are technical specification parameters on GeM. Q1/Q2 parameters are mandatory core specifications, while Q3/Q4 parameters are advanced attributes that often decide bid technical evaluation criteria.

How do I update prices and stock quantities?

Price and stock can be managed directly through the seller dashboard under "Published Products". Keeping these up-to-date prevents cancellation penalties from direct government orders.

What is the difference between Direct Purchase and Bid-Only listing?

Direct Purchase listings allow buyers to purchase directly up to portal transaction limits, whereas Bid-Only listings are reserved for higher value items that require technical comparison and tender bidding.
