SMC Surat Schedule of Rates
About Surat Municipal Corporation
Surat is one of India's fastest-growing cities — major civic infrastructure programmes include the Surat Smart City development, sewage treatment expansion, Tapi Riverfront Development, and substantial road upgrades. Despite the volume of civic works, SMC has not published a standalone civil-works SOR; tenders quote Gujarat R&B Civil SOR (2022-23 + Revised) with SMC-specific overheads for congested-urban-site working, traffic-restricted excavation, and sewerage-trunk-main works in active urban areas. Engineers preparing SMC tender bids reference R&B parent + SMC tender BoQ. Stamp Duty Rates 2006 published on SMC portal are property-valuation rates — not civil construction.
