Dear kamlesh did you heard rates come down ratio is more then increaseof rate in any consumer item,in my life I never heard,as per my opinion don,t think for it go and start construction work as soon as possible,day by day labour rates are incresing and better you construct your house as early it constructed you consume it more time in your life and  your comfort level will increase ,which cost can't assessed

Thanks and regards

Post subject: construction cost.

Hi, its my personal experience and advice to you.

Usually  construction materials costs reduced in rainy season and labour also available plenty compared to winter and summer season.

Typical labour rates for basic structure cost paid in tier-3 city in Kanigiri, Andhra pradesh, india as below. Span of construction is 6 to 9 months approx.

Apr2009 - Rs. 100 per sqft of slab area; Aug2009 - Rs. 120 per sqft of slab area ; Dec2009 - Rs. 128 per sqft of slab area ; Apr2010 - Rs. 135 per sqft of slab area ; Jun2010 - Rs. 150 per sqft of slab area; Sep2009 - Rs. 155 per sqft of slab area ; Nov2010 - Rs. 170 per sqft of slab area.

Typical building construction matrial price as below.

Cement - Rs 155 to 240 per bag. steel -Rs 37000 to 42000 per MT. bricks -Rs 3.2 to 4 per brick. sand -Rs. 8000 to 12000 per truck from 130km away. local sand- 1200/tractor.  crushed stone gravel - 7000/m3. Teakwood(2nd class) - Rs 1500/cft. Marble - Rs 35/sqft. birla white Rs 750/ bag.

Costruction cost of my house comes to Rs. 760/sqft. ( Labour 215 + Material 545). This labour includes basic structure, plumbing, electrical, wood work, flooring and painting. only elevation art work not included. Construction started in Apr-2010 and expected to complete by Dec-2010.

Above rates are actually paid be me. Hope that it may help to judge construction of your house.

 

Regards,

Venkat.
