Understanding Construction Costs
- Cement & Steel: The foundation and structural framework (Cement, TMT Steel Rebars, Sand, Bricks) will consume almost 40% to 50% of your entire budget.
- Finishing Costs: The difference between a Standard home and a Luxury home lies entirely in the finishing. Italian marble flooring, teakwood doors, UPVC windows, and premium bath fittings can double the cost of construction.
- Construction Home Loans: If you own a plot, banks provide "Home Construction Loans." Unlike regular home loans, the bank will not disburse the full amount on day 1. They disburse the loan in tranches (installments) based on the progress of construction (e.g., plinth level, roof casting, finishing).
