23000 per square is too expensive, Running market rates for the above mentioned work is 19000 to 20000. I have started the house work 2 months back I have fixed the labour contract for 18,000 per square.

23000/ Square seems to be slightly on the higher side, even if he does the flooring/ tiling under the same price. Negotiate it for 21K & then it probably helps. Exterior at 8/SFT - I presume this should have been 80/SFT, this again is a good deal.

Drill deep into the tiling & the flooring specs & make sure that the height & other parameters are looked into.

Thanks

So 20K per Sqft for interior would be best deal covering all.

Exterior floor plastering (between the compound wall and Interior wall with concrete flooring) - 8 Rs Sqft is best

compound wall with earthing ,foundation,plastering - 80 Rs per Sqft is best.

Please do confirm.
