FAQs

Land cost per square foot depends on land price and FAR. For example, ₹90 crore per acre at 3.75 FAR results in ~₹5,500 per FAR sq ft.

No. FAR defines buildable area, not saleable area. Only RERA carpet area is saleable.

Loading is the difference between carpet area and total built-up area. It has no fixed standard in NCR.

Due to high land costs, upfront payment policies, long project timelines, inflation, and financing costs.

Sales must happen on carpet area basis under RERA, but super area terminology is still widely used for pricing perception.
