Any suggestions for my query is much appreciated.

Re: Bank Engineer Verification
I had taken a loan from SBI bank, and they never bothered to come and visit the compound of my house. They used to click pictures from about 50 feet and walk away in a minute.

Re: Electrical Fittings
Based on my experience where I took the quotation from a couple of different vendors (some so called reputed ones in BVK), I found them offering good rates on Havells and Legrand. For other brands you might still try to explore other options.

After a lot of consideration, I have ordered LG UPVC windows. Currently its 20% cheaper than Fenesta and 100% of the parts are manufac...
