Fees

Published, because
you will ask anyway

Three finish bands, quoted per square foot of carpet area. What moves the number is how much civil work the flat needs and how much of the joinery is bespoke — not how nice your building is.

Every band assumes the flat is handed to us empty and structurally sound. Civil work beyond minor demolition, plumbing relocation and society charges are quoted separately, in writing, before they start.

Rough it out

What would your
flat actually cost?

Move the slider and pick a finish level. This is the range we would open a conversation at — not a quote, and not binding on either of us.

A range, not a quote. The real number moves with the state of the flat, how much civil work it needs, and what you already own.

Where the money goes

Joinery eats
two-fifths of it

A rough breakdown of a typical turnkey budget. Useful before you talk to anyone — including us. If a quote you are holding puts joinery at seventy percent, you now know what to ask about.

  1. 0%Joinery & carpentryWardrobes, kitchen, storage walls, all built-ins. Always the largest line.
  2. 0%Civil & finishesDemolition, plaster, flooring, tiling, painting, waterproofing.
  3. 0%Electrical & lightingRewiring, points, false ceiling, fixtures and the control system.
  4. 0%Loose furnitureSofas, beds, dining, chairs, rugs. The part you can phase if you must.

The awkward ones

Questions about money

What does a full home interior actually cost in Mumbai?

Between ₹1,600 and ₹4,500 per square foot of carpet area, depending on finish level. For a 900 sq ft 2 BHK that is roughly ₹15 to ₹40 lakh all-in. Anyone quoting well below that band is either excluding something or intending to.

How is your fee calculated?

A fixed fee, agreed before any drawing starts, based on carpet area and scope. It does not move if your budget moves. We deliberately avoid the percentage model — it pays us more when your project costs more, which is the wrong incentive.

What does the payment schedule look like?

Typically five stages: booking, on approval of drawings, at material procurement, at 70% site completion, and on handover after the snag list is closed. The final stage is never a token amount — it has to be worth us coming back for.
