Cost Planning for Your House

Here’s a simple guide to help you plan all costs — not just the building work — so your home is truly “ready to live in” when it’s done.

📍 Pre-Construction Costs (Often Ignored)

Before a single brick is laid, here are some costs to expect:

✅ 1. Approval & Permission Fees

• Building plan sanction from Nagar Nigam

• Architect/engineer consultation (It’s free for all our esteemed clients).

  💡 costing between 30k and 90k, depending on the plot size and construction area.

📝 We help clients handle these matters with zero hassle and connect them to a genuine person for fast and minimal charges.

✅ 2. Site Preparation

• Site cleaning, fencing, and leveling.

• Borewell Point Marking and Borewell (recommended): ₹30,000–₹50,000

• Submersible motor and cable selection, purchasing, and installation: ₹30,000–₹60,000

• Temporary power/water connection setup

📝 With our +35 years of experience, we are well aware of all the right materials and people to make this process easy-going. We ensure the client doesn’t even have to move to get these things done (we absolutely don’t believe in charging any commission either from the client or from the service provider)

✅ 3. Legal & Documentation Charges

• Mutation, khata, conversion fees if applicable

• Property tax updates

📝 We help clients handle these with minimal headache.

🧱 Core Construction Costs (The Main Structure)

This includes:

• Flooring, doors, windows (and related fabrication works)

🎯 Estimated Range: ₹1,600 to ₹2,400 per sq. ft. (depending on requirement)

🪑 Post-Construction Costs (Move-In Readiness)

Even after construction ends, you’ll spend on making the home livable:

✅ 1. Furniture & Fixtures

• Beds, wardrobes, dining, sofas: ₹3–10L depending on size/finish

• Kitchen trolleys, cabinets

✅ 2. Interior Design & False Ceilings

• Modular kitchen: ₹1L–₹3L

• Wardrobes & TV unit: ₹1.5L+

• POP or gypsum ceiling: ₹80–₹120/sq. Ft.

✅ 3. Lighting, Curtains & Appliances

💰 Smart Cost Planning Tips:

🧠 1. Plan Budget in Three Layers:

• Layer 1 – Construction cost (structure): ~70%

• Layer 2 – Pre-construction + approvals: ~10%

• Layer 3 – Interiors + furniture: ~20%

📑 2. Have a Written Estimate for Each Stage

Get separate quotations for :

• Civil construction

• Interior designing

• Modular kitchen

  This helps avoid overlap and confusion.

🧾 3. Keep a 10% Contingency Fund

Unexpected costs always arise — change in finishes, or extra fittings, interior work may end up costing more.

💡 We always advise clients to keep a 10% buffer

🛠️ Conclusion:

Cost planning is not just about “per sq. ft. rate” — it’s about being financially prepared from start to finish. When you understand and plan for all stages, you avoid stress and enjoy the journey of building your dream home.
