Knowing the cost per square foot (or per square meter) of your construction project is one of the most important metrics when planning or budgeting for residential or commercial buildings. With this simple calculator, you can quickly estimate the cost per unit area based on your total construction cost and total built-up area.

Formulas Used

1. Cost Per Square Foot Formula

Cost per sq ft=Total Construction CostTotal Area in sq ft\text{Cost per sq ft} = \frac{\text{Total Construction Cost}}{\text{Total Area in sq ft}}Cost per sq ft=Total Area in sq ftTotal Construction Cost​

2. Cost Per Square Meter Formula

Since:

2. Cost Per Square Meter Formula

Since:

1 sq meter=10.7639 sq feet1 \, \text{sq meter} = 10.7639 \, \text{sq feet}1sq meter=10.7639sq feet

You can convert:

Cost per sq meter=Cost per sq ft×10.7639\text{Cost per sq meter} = \text{Cost per sq ft} \times 10.7639Cost per sq meter=Cost per sq ft×10.7639

Example Calculation

Let’s say:

  • Total Construction Cost = ₹15,00,000
  • Total Area = 1500 sq ft

Step 1: Cost per Square Foot

Cost per sq ft=15000001500=₹1000\text{Cost per sq ft} = \frac{1500000}{1500} = ₹1000Cost per sq ft=15001500000​=₹1000

Step 2: Cost per Square Meter

Cost per sq meter=1000×10.7639=₹10,763.90\text{Cost per sq meter} = 1000 \times 10.7639 = ₹10,763.90Cost per sq meter=1000×10.7639=₹10,763.90
