As per the documents, Punjab police plans to procure:
500 Sig Sauer P226 9mm
400 9mm pistols no manufacturer specified just 'glock/berretta or equivalent'
250 Sig Sauer 516 rifle 5.56mm 7.5" barrel personal defense weapon
25 SC-76 Sniper Rifle 7.62mm - I'm not sure if they genuinely want to procure the steel core design .308 or if there is a typo and they actually want the Sig Sauer 716 7.62mm. I believe it to be a typo and I think they want the sig 716.
100 Sig Sauer MPX-K 9mm sub machine gun full auto
2100 7.62mm Rifle SMG (Probably want a kalashnikov variant)
400 7.62mm Rifle SMG with retractable stock (probably similar to above)
300 12ga shotgun (another typo there '12 bore short gun')
100K 7.62mm 'sniper rounds' (probably 7.62nato/.308)
The procurement plan is very poorly written.
Also, some of the choices don't make sense and seem inefficient. Example, if you're going to procure 900 9mm pistols, why not just specify the same model ie all Sig Sauer P226?
Lastly, If I was a Punjabi, I would hope the procurement is closely followed. Either the police chiefs are just big sig sauer fans (understandable - they're excellent guns) or there is something of material value in it for them.
