Method: standard CPWD-style analysis-of-rates coefficients × current market material/labour rates for each city, + 1% water charges + 15% contractor's profit & overheads. Concrete grades use design-mix cement content; reinforcement steel and formwork are separate items. Prices are indicative ranges — actual rates vary by brand, quantity, site and contract. Not a substitute for a sanctioned schedule of rates.
