Indicative only. Figures are estimates for planning, using typical 2026 Indian rates and coverage of ~10–12 sq m per litre per coat. Actual paint use depends on door profile (panelled doors use more), surface porosity, application method and wastage. Always buy a little extra and confirm quantities and rates with your painter and paint brand.
