Raise and escalate a ticket

STEP 1

Call or chat

Helpline or Gemmy chat for a quick fix.

STEP 2

Raise a ticket

Ticket page or email. Add error, bid/order number, screenshot. Save the ticket number.

STEP 3 · AFTER 3 DAYS

Escalate

Use “escalate a ticket” on the portal if still unresolved.

GeM’s escalation matrix sets a target of resolving operational issues within 16 working hours, and lets you escalate if a ticket is open 3 days after creation.

Payment delays and disputes

Disputes between buyers and sellers (late payment, wrong rejection, non-supply) go through GeM’s Incident Management, not the helpline. Raise an incident on the order, follow up with a ticket, and for unresolved cases MSEs can use the MSME Samadhaan portal and anyone can file on CPGRAMS.

Before you call

  • User ID (not email), registered mobile and email
  • Business PAN
  • Bid, order or ticket number
  • Screenshot of the error
Stay safe: GeM staff never ask for your password, OTP or DSC PIN. Use only numbers listed on gem.gov.in; fake “GeM customer care” numbers are a common scam.
