PROJECT Anuj Residence
SCOPE Ground Floor Bathroom
ISSUED 3 August 2026 · Rev B

Three ways to build the same bathroom.

One layout, one set of fixtures, three levels of finish. The plan does not change between these options — what changes is the quality of what you touch and what you look at. Each option below is visualised from the same viewpoint so the difference is a matter of material, not imagination.

Room
5 × 7 ft × 10 ft
Floor area
35 sq ft
Wall tiling
191 sq ft
Floor tiling
38.5 sq ft

Every linked item below is a real, currently-listed product or manufacturer rate — checked August 2026. Unlinked items (waterproofing, labour, door, window, painting, electrical) are contractor-quoted rather than bought online, so a link there would be invented, not useful.

Our view

Why we recommend the middle

The Standard tier spends its money on the two things you register every single day — the surfaces you look at, and the metal you touch. It takes the premium stone-effect tile and the full chrome fitting range, then stops. Sanitaryware stays plain white, the mirror stays plain, the shower stays a single fixed head.

That is 63% of the Premium cost for most of the visible difference. The remaining ₹67,600 between Standard and Premium buys a vanity unit, a backlit mirror, a second shower head and lit joinery — real upgrades, but ones you stop noticing after a fortnight.

Worth saying plainly: Premium at ₹1,83,400 is 37% of the entire ground-floor budget for a 35 sq ft room. The hall is the space guests actually see, and it still needs a beam resolved, four windows dressed and two fans fitted. We would not spend a third of the budget here.

Basis

What these numbers rest on

  • Room dimensions are confirmed — 7 ft × 5 ft, 10 ft height. Areas are calculated from that envelope, not estimated from photographs.
  • Rates checked August 2026 against Indian online retail and manufacturer pricing. Actual invoiced prices vary by city, dealer and current offers.
  • Tile is the largest single swing in every tier. One local dealer quote on tile and CP fittings before ordering is worth more than any further refinement here.
  • Door and window opening sizes are assumed at standard dimensions and should be confirmed on site before those two items are ordered.
  • Lighting is surface-mounted in all three tiers. The Premium visualisation shows recessed spotlights and cove lighting, which would require a false ceiling — ruled out for this bathroom, and not advisable in a wet room. Add ₹8,000–12,000 if that scheme is wanted.
  • Styling props are not costed — plants, bottles and towels in the visuals are for presentation only.
  • Excluded — structural work, changes to the window or door openings, and any relocation of the existing CPVC runs.
Before tiling begins, confirm the three existing CPVC run heights on site. Fixture positions are set by pipework already installed — checking now costs nothing, and correcting it after the wall is tiled costs a great deal.
