Make the numbers useful

Have an area in mind?
See a first estimate.

Use the total built-up area across all floors. Your plot area and built-up area are different measurements.

Calculate my construction cost
How does fixed-price construction work?

A fixed price relates to a clearly agreed scope and specification. Your contract should explain how changes in design, finishes, quantities, ground conditions or statutory requirements are handled. Agree the price and timing of any variation in writing before additional work begins.

What costs should I confirm beyond the package rate?

Confirm land costs, taxes, statutory fees, design and soil investigation, special foundations, compound wall, borewell, sump, utility connections, interiors and upgrades. Some items may be included in your proposal and others may be separate. Use an itemised quote to establish your complete budget.

What are the Standard and Premium construction rates?

The listed starting specifications are Standard at INR 2,199 per sq.ft and Premium at INR 2,599 per sq.ft. Premium changes selected materials and finishes. These are indicative residential construction rates; final scope, site conditions, taxes, exclusions and the area measurement method must be confirmed in a written quote.

How do I confirm warranty and aftercare coverage?

Request the actual warranty document before signing. Check the covered elements, duration, exclusions, maintenance duties, notification process and responsibility for repairs. Structural, waterproofing, finish and manufacturer warranties can differ. The signed agreement determines the coverage for your project.
