Although upvc windows are weather proof, finding a frame integrated with grills was

difficult, fennesta provides villa windows which come with grills but are not sturdy enough

to prevent a break in. The usual upvc windows are fit using glue and the grills go inside or

outside this upvc frame. Casement windows are costly in upvc, sliding windows

accumulate dirt in the slide grooves. You cant get mosquito nets if you go for upvc

casement. All these disadvantages made me sway my vote towards wooden windows.

Burma teak turned out too expensive and since the outer area is going to be painted to

endure the harsh weather, it was not economical. Burma teak doesnt deform and the wood

grains are visible this is the reason people go for teak windows. Wood polish is expensive

if you want to highlight the wood texture. Ghana teak has many knots and white in color

compared to burma teak which is brown. From what i heard Ghana teak deforms slightly

compared to Columbia teak, Columbia teak is supposed to be harder and deforms less.

Honne comes under the hard wood category and doesnt deform. Honne has not grain

texture so needs to be painted upon. Red sal and white sal usually have hairline cracks

which can be covered during polishing. Honne turns yellow when exposed to water so

painting it is mandatory. Some pain the outside and polish the inside of the frames. Red sal

is the most moving wood for people who build rented houses.

The main things to check while selecting

1. Are you buying log or cut pieces.

2. What will be the wastage

4. Watch out for defective pieces.

5. How long has the wood been seasoned.

Granite comes in various shades and colors, since its naturally formed finding the right

shade is difficult.

1. Buy from a good retailer.

2. Put water on the unpolished side of the granite to reveal its true colour.

12. Gang saw rates are 140 - 200+ Rs / SqFt.

10. Epoxy resin can be seen on the side of granite slab. Epoxy give granite the gloss.

9. Avoid granites treated with chemicals to induce artificial colour. All red granites usual

8. Look out for iron content in granite, they rust or turn yellow over a period of time.

7. Avoid too much clouds in the stone else there will be no continuity.

6. Granites also are categorized into hard or soft stone. Buy hard stones.

11. Granite comes in 3-4 types of polish.

13. 3x11 slabs - 80-90 Rs / SqFt.

r it doesnt clearly say what is the alternative. There are 2 types of water

Check list for granite buying

5. Avoid buying granites that are cracked from the side

4. Look at the side of the granite slabs to see if cracks are present.

3. Lookout for hair line cracks, If there is one chances are they will increase during laying

time.

14. 4x11 slabs - 110-120 Rs / SqFt.

tiles which is around 120 Rs/Sq.Ft. which

digital prints which are good. Kajaria has

some good options as well.

15. Some shops use fancy names to bump up the price so watch out.

A new approach would be to use a single

good looking tile for the entire house that

way you avoid wastage and give the entire

house a uniform look. With this approach the

focus of the house shifts to the walls which

you can decorate and highlight.

Stage 1: Type of house

The basic types of house people build in

Bangalore are

2. Mangalore / Kerala style - Sloped roof with

tiling.

2. House for self use + Renting out (Luxury +

cost effective)

3. House for renting out. (Cost and revenue

generation in mind)

3. Colonial style.

4. Roman style - Pantheon roof, big pillars etc.

1. House for self use. - (Luxury, privacy and

comfort in mind)

Once you decide which category you belong you

can move on to the next stage. Few people are

not sure if they fit in category 1 or 2 for them I

would advice to think ahead and plan their home

design in such a way that they can expand if the

need arises in future.

Pick a design style. There are a few house

design styles that are prominent in Bangalore.

The style you pick will also impact your cost.

1. Contemporary designs - Boxes shapes and

angles.


22/123

A house cant be 100% vaastu complaint, so try

to comply based on feasibility.

This leaves out just the middle sections and the

north west corner for the plot for modification.

To have some cross ventilation its ideal if the

rooms (Kitchen, Master bedroom) are in the

corner.

1. Kitchen to the south east.

2. Master bedroom to the south west

3. Entrance & Car parking in north east.

4. Sump to be in the north east

5. Pooja room not to be next to / below /

above bathrooms.

Stage 2: Vaastu

Learn about Vaastu. Even before you think of

putting a plan on paper read a few articles on

vaastu so that you know how to come up with a

sound plan. Vaastu has some science behind it

Eg: Flow of light, Flow of wind etc. Here are a

few basics on Vaastu.

For 3D modelling you can use google sketchp,

look up a few tutors on youtube on architecture

design using floor plan. Its very simple to use

and you can visualize your house elevation.

Stage 3: Self design

Chart out a layout of how you want the floor plan

to look like. This will give you some idea when

you go talk to the architect. I used Sweet Home

3D to draw up my floor plan. There are various

other online tools available as well. If you arent

well versed with a computer then paper will do.

Write down some of the requirements of your

houses.

1. Serial car parking Vs Parallel car parking-

2. Stilt Vs ground floor VS basement parking

6. Ceiling height VS false ceiling - False

ceiling is a craze these days in apartments,

but on a long run its more difficult to maintain

it. Dust will gather around the false ceiling and

cause health problems. Ceiling heights are

standard of 10' some go to 11' making the

room look bigger. If you go in for a 11' ceiling

then you will pay more in terms of airconditioning keep that in mind.

7. Wood windows VS Aluminium windows

Vs UPVC windows-Wood windows are

costly 600 - 650 Rs /sq ft. Aluminum windows

are delicate. Upvc windows range from 350

Rs/sq ft for sliding designs and 500 Rs/sq st

10. Brick Vs Cement Block- Cement block

work out cheap and easy in terms of

construction. Brick gives a cooling effect

compared to a cement brick wall. A room built

with Cement block will heat up soon. Brick

outer walls are usually 9" and cement outer

walls are usually 6". In terms of safety brickwall of 9" is much safer. Cement block loose

its property after 10-15 years. I would suggest

go with a brick wall even if you loose 3" you

will benefit in terms of a cooler room in

summer. The RCC columns will be quite good

in 9" compared to 6" RCC column. Mud bricks

come in 2 varieties one that is 6 Rs/brick with

rough edges used for walls, 8 Rs/Brick which

has smooth edges and used when brick work

is exposed.

11. Borewell vs BWSSB water connection-

BWSSB is supposed to provide non-potablewater (recycled water) for construction but

there is still some problems with delivery and

distribution. There are no takers for recycled

water, there are plans to have dual pipelines

in all areas but that will take time. In areas

where water scarcity is present borewell is a

life saver. A borewell might cost 1.5 - 2 lakhs.

Always check for the yield of water that you

might get. Check with your neighbours to find

out at what depth they got water. See if you

can get a common borewell by co-ordinating

with your neighbours. If on the other hand you

decide to use a tanker to supply water for

construction you will end up paying 5,500 Rs

for 65K litres / month assuming you are paying

550 Rs/ 6500 Liters. The cost difference

between tanker and borewell is big. Just for 8

month usage investing 1.5 lakh extra is not

justified. Most house constructions in

Bangalore start of by digging a borewell since

BWSSB wont provide water for construction

after construction is complete they rarely use

3. How many bedrooms?

4. Attached toilet for all bedrooms or common

toilets?

If you know the details and dont require an

architect you can go meet a draftsmen who will

design the floor plan and structural and

elevation for around 20K. Offcourse his

knowledge base will be limited and you will be

the person in charge.

You would need to meet the 2nd kind first.

Laydown your requirements and ideas and let

the architect work out few plans for you. Here is

a check-list that I think will work.

1. How many members in the family?

2. How many floors?

Once you know what you want, its time to meet

an architect. There are 2 types of architects in

Bangalore

1. Architects who are registered with BBMP

and do house plans for approval only.2. Architects who are not registered with

BBMP and do house plans for construction.

16. 43 Grade Vs 53 Grade vs PPC - For RC

strength, it requires more water during the curing

with cement this seals the minute holes in ce

based cements

17. Spiral Staircase vs Normal Staircase - S

wasted. In a normal stair case the space under i

comfort in climbing anything more will hurt the an

footing. Use laputra finish

Stage 4: Meet an architect


28/123

4. Khata Certificate - You get this done in your

local BBMP office.

This can be done in parallel. In case of BDA

layout the following are the legal documents

1. Title deed / Sale deed / Parent deed /

Master deed - Agreement of sale / tiltle. You

get this done in your local sub-registrar office.

2. Gift deed - Agreement of transfer of

ownership. Not required if site is purchased.

You get this done in your local sub-registrar

office.

3. Khata Extract - You get this done in your

local BBMP office.

Once you are satisfied with the design its time to

move to the next phase.

Stage 5: Get your legal

documents ready.

Download the Architect & Owner Agreement

Once the requirements are laid out, the architect

will have something to work with. He can

probably get you a working floor plan in a week

which you can review.

Note: Always measure the site before the

planning starts. There may be differences in

dimension which when you discover later

may be a problem if your plan is already

drawn. Sometimes dimensions will be

correct but the site wont be a perfect

rectangle, this has to be taken into account.

9. New trends or ideas you have in mind?

10. Space utilisation

I am not in favour of bribing, the legal path

usually take a bit longer and some effort on your

path but its cleaner and you will feel good. Every

govt department has an RTI officer who is

nominated by the govt. His duties are to register

any RTI applications and provide you the

acknowledgement number. If the particular

service is not completed within the stipulated

number of days then you can file an RTI (Right

to information) demanding to know the status of

your application. It works like a charm.

Where do i find out what are the service time

lines?

Gift deed - Will take a day to get done, provided

all the other documents are in order. - No bribe

required if all documents are in order. You may

need to bribe 100 Rs or so to the office boy who

stamps your documents.

Khata transfer - Will take 15-30 days to get

done, provided all the other documents are in

order. - No bribe required if all documents are in

order. Ideal bribe range is some where between

5K for a 30x40 plot to 8K for a 40x60 plot. You

will need to go meet the Revenue Inspector and

show him your plot, he may give your dates and

times that are odd, but be persistent.

Sale deed -

5. Emcumbrance Certificate - Shows if there

are any loans on the site.You get this done in

your local sub-registrar office.

Khata extract and Khata certificate will be

provided within a week if the site is already in

your name. - No bribe required. If you do plan tobribe then anything in range of 500 Rs - 1000

Rs should do.

Encumbrance of 13 years will take 20-25 days

to get officially. No bribe required, automated

process.


30/123

Usually thing move faster once you file an RTI, if

that doesnt happen then you can reach out to

lokayukta and complain against the officer who

is demanding bribe. All this will work if all your

legal documents are in order. If there are any

loop holes then you will end up running from

pillar to post.

What documents i need to submit?

Note: When dealing with govt office please

carry/get acknowledgements in writing along

with a seal. Without this you will end up making

many rounds. Always carry a photo copy of your

application to get it sealed and signed, if you

filled a form then ask for an acknowledgement

number or a slip.

Download the RTI Template

What to do if RTI doesnt work?

How to file an RTI in bangalore?

You can write a simple letter in English or

Kannada (not sure if Hindi will do) and either

post it to the concerned office or hand it over in

person to the RTI officer in charge of that office.

Once you hand over the RTI application they

need to respond within 30 days. Once you hand

over the RTI to the RTI officer he will register it

a register book and provide you an

acknowledgement number. Better if you could

carry a photo copy of the RTI and get a govt

seal and his signature along with date on that.

You will also need to carry any supporting

documents. A postal order of 10 Rs which can

be purchased in your post office.

If plan not to bribe then make sure your plan ismeeting the norms set by 2015 master plan and

there are no violations, else you will pay a hefty

fine or the engineer can stop construction if you

are violating the norms. The building plans are

valid upto 2 years after which they need to be

renewed.

Couple of things that need to be added to the

above agreement.

1. Mentioning through lintel.

2. Contractor to be responsible for taking the

right permission for erection of construction

shed and material storage at construction site.

Contractor will make sure that road safety is

not compromised due to materials stored at

the site. Necessary precautions will be taken

by contractor to avoid any road accidents.

3. Mention brand of steel to be used.

4. Provisioning of attic.

Also make sure the approved plan is as close tothe construction plan as possible this will make

sure you dont pay too much tax. The more built

up area you show on the approved plan the

more tax you will end up paying.

Deviations during Construction

Plan approval

I believe 90% of the plan approval process

involves some sort of bribe as no one adheresto the bye laws. There is atleast some degree of

violation in the approved plan vs the actual plan.

Knowing this the BBMP engineers are very

much aware of the fact that they have the upper

hand here since everyone violates to some

extent. I filed an RTI for some delayed

documentation which really got the engineer

pissed at me and he started to threaten me by

saying he will give me notice if there is a

deviation in construction. Then i understood that

since these engineers are never challenged by

anyone they have grown accustomed to power

and can easily threaten people. So I

investigated further and found out what a

deviation means.

BBMP bye law says:

If you are building a house yourself it becomes

very important that you understand the laws. Lot

of times govt officials end up asking for a bribe

and threaten you of a violation and the

consequences. Knowing the violation and the

consequence before hand will keep you aware

of the situations.

Khata Transfer

This should be fairly simple. If you dont have

previous tax records or missing some document

then there is a option that things will move

slowly.

The Automatic building plan scrutiny system for

approval of building plans is having some

technical issues and as of 2012 some BBMP

accept plan submission only online where as

some take a physical copy. Your architect will

provide 10 ammonia prints with the house plan.

This will be verified by the AEE (AssistantExecutive Engineer) in BBMP office and within

15 days they will let you know the DD amount

that needs to be submitted towards road

cutting.


34/123

Assuming this if one has left no setback on one

side his violation would be 1/4 of 25%.

On consulting a lawyer the following was his

opinion.

1. Setback - 25%

2. Coverage - 25%

3. FAR - 25%

4. Height - 25%

i) Wherever any construction is in

violation/deviation of the sanctioned plan, the

Commissioner may, if he considers that the

violations / deviations are within 5% of (1) theset

back to be provided around the building, (2) plot

coverage (3) floor area ratio and (4)height of the

building and that the demolition under chapterXV of the Act is not feasible without affecting

structural stability, he may regularise such

violations/deviations after recording detailed

reasons for the same.ii) Violation/deviation as at

6.0 (i) above may be regularised only after

sanctioning the modified plan recording thereon

the violations/deviations and after the levy of fee

prescribed by the Corporation from time to

time.iii) Regularisation of violations / deviations

under this provision are not applicable to the

buildings which are constructed without

obtaining any sanctioned plan whatsoever andalso the violations / deviations which are made

inspite of the same being specifically deleted or

rejected in the sanctioned plan.

So the question is how is this 5% derived?

If one doesnt leave any setback on one side

would that be 100% violation or 25% violation? If

one doesnt leave any setback on any side then

is that a 400% violation or a 100%? If one

leaves right setback on all side but his FAR ratio

exceeds norm then is it a 100% violation?

Based on my understanding 25% is allotted to

each violation.


35/123

Stage 7: Market survey

2. Submit annexure after plint level is complete.

Usually the engineer will have some or the other

reason why commencement certificate cant be

provided. The fine for starting construction

without obtaining commencement certificate is

100 Rs.

Commencement Certificate

All approved plans come with certain

instructions, one of which says - "Laying of

Foundation Concrete & Columns ShouldCommence Only After Obtaining

Commencement Certificate From Bruhat

Bangalore Mahanagara Palike After Inspection

from AEE". Now this ideally makes sense for big

constructions and apartment complexes. For

small residential buildings the trend has been

that no one follows this rule. There are 2

processes that need to be followed if you want

to get the commencement certificate.

1. Submit annexure before laying foundation

columns.

Ask BBMP people to accept for fine after

issuance of notice.If they are not prepared

accept to receive fine. You have every right to

prefer e appeal against the said notice before

Karnataka appellate tribunal for quashing of the

said notice.If you decide to prefer appeal: Points

which you have to bear it your mind are that thecourt process will take time, as an advantage

you can seek an order of stay from demolishing

any violated portion till the disposal of such

appeal by BBMP officials.Try to settle amicably

and keep judicial excise as last option.

either talk to people who have built a house or

by talking to vendors and getting estimates.You

need to do this before stage 8 because you

need to be aware of what the current trend incost estimation is. This keeps changing year on

1. Lump sum - You release money once

various stages are completed.

2. Labour only - You buy the materials and

hire only the labour from the contractor.

3. tCost - You pay for labour and material

accurately. Then you pay additional for the

services of the contractor.

Make sure the agreement between you and the

contractor is as crystal clear as possible to the

minute detail. This will help avoiding cost

deviations.

Stage 8: Find a contractor &

work out an agreement

After stage 7 you are aware of the market

situation and its time to find a contractor. Find

out a good contractor who you can trust withyour money. See his past work, talk to his

customers and get a quotation. There are 3

You need to negotiate to some extend, so here

your market survey is going to be handy. Dontreduce the price too much from market rate this

will force the contractor to use sub-standard

materials. There is always a profit margin which

he will make, so keep that in mind, if you eat

away his profit margin he will try to balance it out

with sub-strandard materials.

If you need a loan then look up a good bank and

apply for a home loan. Check their history as to

how happy their existing home loan customers

are? The shorter the term less interest you pay.

Dont look for a low EMI, look for a low interestrate. If the EMI is small you will end up paying

towards the loan for a longer duration thus

increasing the interest amount that you paid

towards your home loan.

Some banks force you to take a insurance

policy to cover your home loan. This is not

mandatory but usually advised.

9. Does he think at your level? Simple test

here is to ask how much would be the basic

cost of a sink he will put according to his

estimate? Assuming that as baseline assume

that the rough estimate he gave will have

materials costs in that range. If he is thinking

3K sink and you are thinking of 5K sink then

you know that the estimate he has given you

is at lower end.

Stage 9: Apply for loan

3. Any other construction work he is doing in

parallel? Will he be too occupied with the

other construction. Will he share workforce

between construction.

4. How much deviation does he expect

considering the prices

5. How much aware is he about the current

market prices

6. Does he get aggressive when things dontwork out.

7. How soon will be get the work done.

8. Does he look at the site and actual plan to

provide an accurate estimate?

Take quotations from multiple contractors and

compare the pros & cons. 90% of the decision is

based on trust, but keep a legal agreement in

hand as well.

Check list of questions for contractor selection.

1. Previous work done?

2. References?


42/123

1. Eligibility for home loan?

2. What is the interest rate?

3. What is the base rate?

4. Is it fixed or floating and for what duration.

How will the revised interest rates be

calculated.

5. Documents required?

Use the following link to calculate your home loan ratio:

http://www.bankbazaar.com/finance-tools/emi-

calculator.html

Question to ask the home loan officer / bank

manager wrt to home loans

1. Look for smaller tenure and not lower EMI.

The lower the EMI the more money you pay the

bank.

2. If you cant get a lower tenure then try to

reduce your principal by doing prepayments

periodically when you have bulk cash in hand so

that the interest component is low. Check with

the bank if you can do pre-payment any time

and there is no penalty against it.

For a home loan of 30 lakhs at the interest rate

of 10.5% and a tenure of 5 years you will end up

paying 77% towards principal deduction & 22%

towards interest deduction. The EMI will come

up to 65K / month.

Its advisable to keep the ratio at 70:30 and not

go below. 70% - principal, 30% interest.

Key points to remember:

The processing fees also varies from bank to

bank. Some banks charge 0.5% of the loan

amount as processing fee, some bank charge a

fixed amount of 10K. This money is not

refundable if you dont get you home loan

approved so think carefully before applying.Make sure you have all the documents the bank

has asked for before applying. Look out for loan

mela where a discount is provided.

Usually the banks ask for a letter from the

contractor and then an engineer appointed by

the bank visits the site and after 10-12 days the

bank release the loan in stages. SBI Bank

however asks home loan customers to produce

bills for 50% of the loan allotted. This means

you will end up paying 14% VAT on all materialspurchased. As per them this is an RBI guideline

that they follow. No other bank usually asks for

bills of material purchase to be produced.

Knowing this before you opt of the loan is very

important. If its a turn-key project then

producing material purchase bills for 50% of

loan may be difficult, then you can speak to the

branch manager and ask for an exception in

your case by providing the agreement between

you and the contractor.
