Applies official Government gazetted unit rates for earthwork, RCC casting, brick masonry, tiles, doors, plumbing, electrical sub-station, and elevators.
Mandatory Fire NOC for >6 storeys (>20m), fire hydrants, wet risers, DoE environmental clearance (ECC), sewage treatment plants (STP/ETP), and scaffolding dust screens.
