How this construction cost calculator works
The GharVistar construction cost calculator estimates the cost of building a house in 7 cities of Delhi NCR using the formula Total cost = Built-up area (sq ft) × City base rate (₹/sq ft) × Quality multiplier × Soil factor × Floor factor + Flooring upgrade + Add-ons. The city base rate is GharVistar's current standard-quality turnkey rate for that city; quality multipliers are 0.80 (basic), 1.00 (standard), 1.35 (premium) and 1.85 (luxury); soil factor ranges from 1.00 for normal ground to 1.14 for a high water table; and G+2 or higher adds 6% for heavier footings and columns.
Material quantities use industry thumb rules for RCC-framed construction: 0.4 bags of cement, 4 kg of Fe500D steel, 8 bricks, 0.05 tonne of sand and 0.06 tonne of 20 mm aggregate per sq ft of built-up area, priced at dealer-to-retail rates in each city (updated October 2026). The cost breakup — 45% structure, 30% finishing, 15% plumbing and electrical, 10% labour and miscellaneous — reflects a typical GharVistar BOQ.
Construction cost per sq ft in Delhi NCR (2026)
Standard construction costs ₹2,100–2,450 per sq ft across Delhi NCR. Gurugram and Delhi cost the most because of labour rates, plot access and premium finish expectations; Greater Noida, Greater Noida West, Ghaziabad and Faridabad sit in the middle of NCR.
What makes the cost go up
- Finishing tier — the single biggest factor: luxury is 2.3× basic for the same structure.
- Soil and water table — raft or pile foundations add 5–14%.
- Number of floors — stilt + 4 needs bigger columns and a lift (₹8–12 lakh).
- Design complexity — double-height rooms, cantilevers, sloped roofs and large glass add 5–15%.
- Flooring — granite +₹120, Indian marble +₹180, Italian marble +₹350 per sq ft over vitrified tiles.
- Add-ons — modular kitchen, solar, borewell, boundary wall and gate, lift.
What makes the cost go down
- Simple rectangular plan with a flat roof and stacked bathrooms
- AAC blocks instead of red bricks on G+2 and above (less steel, faster)
- Starting in October–March to avoid monsoon delays and idle labour
- Fixing the design before the first footing — changes mid-way cost 2–3×
- Buying material through an authorised bulk channel (included in our turnkey rate)
What the calculator does not include
Land cost, stamp duty, map sanction and completion fees paid to the authority (₹30,000–1.8 lakh depending on city and plot), architect and structural fees (8–12% or a fixed ₹22–35 per sq ft), electricity and water connection deposits, and interior furniture. Add 12–20% to the calculator figure for a complete project budget.

How accurate are the material quantities?
Within ±10% for a typical RCC-framed house; actual quantities depend on wall thickness, floor height, slab thickness and the structural design.
