Property Price Calculator
Turn a rate per sq.ft. or sq.yd. into the total price, with charges and GST.
Sellers quote a rate; you pay a total. Enter the area, the rate and the charges a seller or builder adds, and see the full price, the price per sq.ft. you really pay and the GST if it applies. Use it to compare offers that quote their price in different ways.
Total price
How it is calculated
Base price = area × rate (both in the same unit). Total before GST = base price + preferential location charge (PLC) + development and other charges + parking + other one-time charges. GST = total before GST × the GST rate (nil for plots and for completed homes). Price per sq.ft. = grand total ÷ area in sq.ft.
A worked example
A 1,200 sq.ft. flat at ₹4,500 per sq.ft. is a base price of ₹54 Lakh. Add ₹100 per sq.ft. PLC (₹1.2 Lakh) and ₹2 lakh for parking: ₹57.2 Lakh before GST. If the flat is under construction, GST at 5% adds ₹2.86 Lakh, for a total of ₹60.06 Lakh, or ₹5,005 per sq.ft.
Things to keep in mind
- GST rates are set in the site settings (see the rates box). In general there is no GST on the sale of land or of a completed home; under-construction homes carry GST. Check the current notification and your builder's demand letter.
- Check which area the rate applies to: carpet, built-up or super built-up. Under RERA, the sale agreement must state the carpet area.
Frequently asked questions
What is PLC?
Preferential location charge: an extra amount per sq.ft. a builder adds for a better position in the project, such as a park-facing or corner unit.
Is GST charged on a plot or a ready-to-move home?
In general, no: the sale of land and of a completed building is outside GST. GST applies to under-construction homes. The rates are in the box above; confirm them for your purchase.
Which area should I multiply the rate by?
The area the rate is quoted on, which the seller must state. For a flat this may be super built-up area, while the RERA agreement states carpet area; compare offers on the same basis.
Does the total include stamp duty and registration?
