Home building is a once-in-a-lifetime decision, and it requires a significant amount of emotional, physical, and financial capital investment. Thus, it takes years to build the dream home. So, when people plan to build their home, they wonder whether they should do it themselves by coordinating and managing with the architects, designers, contractors, laborers, etc, or hire a professional home builder in Delhi NCR to do everything on their behalf.
According to our understanding and expertise, building a home through a builder like Prithu Homes can be less expensive. For a better understanding of the cost to build a home in Delhi NCR, Gurgaon, Faridabad, Noida, etc, we have curated a detailed analysis, which decodes the expenses you may incur if you build a home on your own or hire Prithu Homes.

Additionally, the description is based on a 200 sq yds plot in Delhi, where full FAR is consumed to build a stilt + 4 floors. The scope of work down below is based on Prithu Homes HomeEssential to ensure apple to apple comparison of house construction cost.

Please note that the cost we have mentioned in our analysis is based on our market research and experience of what the market contractors, vendors, and other professionals charge the individual plot owners for home construction. You may hear different cost estimates. However, we believe that if you do efficient research, you’ll reach the home construction cost estimate in the vicinity of the cost numbers we have mentioned above.
Additionally, aside from saving money through home building via Prithu, there are other advantages. For instance, Prithu offers a fixed price for design, construction, and approvals on day 0. Prithu Homes transparently defines all the inclusions and exclusions while doing the pricing, so there are no cost-related future surprises.
We are glad to share that Prithu has 50+ sites spread across Delhi, Gurugram, Noida, Greater Noida, Faridabad, and Ghaziabad. So, when we procure raw materials and other equipment, the cost is lower because of bulk purchasing and wider market reach.
Similar is the case with labor. Since we are the leading home builders in Delhi, we have the best access to laborers in and around the national capital. Additionally, thanks to the expertise of our entire team, when Prithu builds a home, there are fewer chances of wastages, rework, and leakages compared to if the plot owner builds the home themselves.
Lastly and most importantly, Prithu has the experience of more than 130+ full-time employees excelling in the home building business. Thus, it is your take to decide whether you want an experienced home builder to build your home or if you want to do it yourself.
