Disclaimer: figures are indicative for India 2026 and include a notional 18% GST when toggled. In-situ cementitious floors are labour-led — red-oxide and lime-araish in particular depend on scarce skilled artisans, so real quotes vary widely by region, finish quality and site. Treat this as a starting estimate, not a final quotation.
