 How to Lift Material on MSTC – Step-by-Step Operational Guide

Step 1: Complete Full Payment

Before lifting, ensure:

  • Balance auction value paid within deadline

  • GST and other levies cleared

  • Payment made only from registered business bank account

⚠️ Non-payment or delay = EMD forfeiture + cancellation risk

Step 2: Download Sale Order / Delivery Order

  • Login to MSTC dashboard

  • Download:

    • Sale Order / LOA

    • Delivery Order (DO)

  • Verify:

    • Lot number

    • Quantity

    • Lifting period

    • Seller location & contact details

Leegal Checkpoint: Cross-verify lifting dates—extensions are rare and penalised.

Step 3: Coordinate with Seller / Depot

  • Contact the seller mentioned in the catalogue

  • Fix:

    • Inspection confirmation (if pending)

    • Lifting schedule

    • Loading method (manual / crane / weighbridge)

📞 Always document communication via email or written confirmation.

Step 4: Arrange Logistics & Labour

Prepare in advance:

  • Truck / trailer (as per material type)

  • Labour, cutting tools, cranes (if required)

  • Safety gear & compliance documents

Operational Tip: Under-sized vehicles lead to multiple trips—margin leakage.

Step 5: Gate Pass Generation

Seller issues Gate Pass / Release Order

  • Gate pass includes:

    • Vehicle number

    • Driver details

    • Lot reference

    • Quantity allowed

🚫 No gate pass = no exit material, irrespective of payment.

Step 6: Weighment & Loading

  • Loading supervised by seller officials

  • Weighment:

    • On-site weighbridge or authorised external bridge

  • Obtain:

    • Weight slip

    • Loading acknowledgement

📌 Discrepancies must be raised immediately on-site, not later.

Step 7: Documentation & Exit

Collect and verify:

  • Invoice

  • Delivery challan

  • Gate pass (signed & stamped)

  • Weighment slip

Only after full documentation should the vehicle exit premises.

Step 8: Lifting Completion Confirmation

  • Update lifting status (if required)

  • Seller confirms completion

  • Close auction file internally

Penalties & Risks to Avoid

  • Delay beyond lifting period → demurrage / cancellation

  • Partial lifting without approval

  • Safety violations at site

  • Disputes raised after exit (usually rejected)
