Total cost breakdown (for 300 sqyd plot, 2,500 sqft G+2)

Soil test + site setup: Rs 50,000-80,000
YEIDA approval fees + architect: Rs 1,00,000-1,50,000
Construction (Rs 2,000/sqft standard tier): Rs 50,00,000
Utilities + connections: Rs 30,000-60,000

YEIDA-specific considerations

Material transport from Greater Noida / Noida suppliers (30-80 km) — adds Rs 25-60/sqft built-up
Labour housing on-site essential
Monsoon months (July-August) slow construction — plan slabs to clear before rain
High water table in some sectors — dewatering + enhanced waterproofing
Airport-zone compliance for Jewar sectors
