What we work on in Tardeo
Tardeo runs from the AC Market up to Nana Chowk and Gowalia Tank, and it is built to a density that surprises people who have not worked there. The stock is mostly 1970s high-rise with a layer of older buildings around Nana Chowk, and almost every project here is shaped by the street rather than by the flat.
1970s high-rise towers
Fourteen to twenty-four storeys around Tardeo Road and the AC Market. 800–1,800 sq ft flats, original lifts with 250–320 kg limits, and services from the period.
Nana Chowk and Gowalia Tank older stock
1930s–50s buildings on tight plots. Smaller flats, walk-ups in places, and considerable character.
Recent redevelopment towers
New high-rise on cleared plots, with fit-out manuals, service lifts and post-tension slabs.
Mixed-use frontage buildings
Commercial ground and lower floors with flats above, on the busiest streets.
What Tardeo does to a project
- There is nowhere to park, at any hour. Deliveries are timed to the minute with a handling crew standing ready. The vehicle unloads and goes. Anything else blocks a street that cannot afford it.
- Old lifts have low weight limits. 250 to 320 kg in the 1970s towers, and the resident population uses them constantly. Everything is knock-down and movements are scheduled outside peak resident hours.
- The street changes with the redevelopment cycle. Hoardings, scaffolding and site traffic management shift every few months. We confirm the approach and the unloading point the week of each delivery.
- Noise transmission between flats is high. These towers were built with thin slabs and shared walls. Neighbours are notified before demolition week and we run noisy scope in a tight block rather than spreading it over a month.
- 1970s services are at their limit. Original wiring sized for a much lighter load and galvanised plumbing at the end of its life. Both are tested in week 0 and quoted as visible lines.

Rates and worked totals in Tardeo
Our Tardeo band is ₹2,490 to ₹4,260 per sq ft of carpet area. The table is arithmetic, not a brochure — each cell is the rate times the area printed beside it. Both the rate and the totals come from flats we have completed and invoiced, held at October 2026.
| Flat | Carpet area | Essential ₹2,490/sq ft | Premium ₹3,350/sq ft | Luxury ₹4,260/sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1BHK | 450–620 sq ft | ₹11.2 – 15.4 L | ₹15.1 – 20.8 L | ₹19.2 – 26.4 L |
| 2BHK | 780–1,080 sq ft | ₹19.4 – 26.9 L | ₹26.1 – 36.2 L | ₹33.2 – 46.0 L |
| 3BHK | 1,200–1,650 sq ft | ₹29.9 – 41.1 L | ₹40.2 – 55.3 L | ₹51.1 – 70.3 L |
| 4BHK (new tower) | 1,900–2,600 sq ft | ₹47.3 – 64.7 L | ₹63.6 – 87.1 L | ₹80.9 L – ₹1.11 Cr |
Rates are ex-GST (18% on top) and cover design, materials, joinery, electrical, false ceiling and painting. Appliances and movable furniture are quoted separately. Calculator here.
Delivery here costs more than it does two kilometres away and we show it. Small marshalled loads with a timed unloading window, no vehicle standing, and a handling crew ready at the kerb runs ₹40,000 to ₹95,000 across a full-home project. It buys a programme that holds instead of one that slips a week at a time.
Working days, lifts and access in Tardeo
The site rules below are the ones we brief the crew on before the first delivery arrives.
| Constraint | The reality here | How we plan for it |
|---|---|---|
| Unloading | No on-street standing available at any hour | Timed marshalled window; crew ready at the kerb; vehicle unloads and leaves |
| Lift limit | 250–320 kg cars in constant resident use | Knock-down joinery; movements scheduled outside resident peaks |
| Neighbouring sites | Redevelopment hoardings change the street layout regularly | Approach and unloading point confirmed the week of each delivery |
| Noise | High transmission between flats in 1970s construction | Neighbours notified; noisy scope compressed into a defined block |
Why the Tardeo spec differs
Below is the working spec we default to locally, with the reason attached to each line so you can argue with it.
| Element | What we specify | Why, here |
|---|---|---|
| Joinery build | Knock-down modules within the lift weight limit | A 320 kg car will not take a finished full-height unit |
| Wiring | Full rewire assumed in 1970s towers; DB upgrade included | Original circuits cannot carry a modern load |
| Plumbing | Galvanised in-flat runs replaced in CPVC | Fifty-year-old GI has lost most of its bore |
| Acoustics | Resilient underlay under new flooring as standard | Thin slabs transmit impact noise to the flat below |
| Carcass | 710-grade generally; BWP in wet areas | Tardeo is inland; salt is not a factor |
Sequencing a Tardeo job
- Week 0 — survey, services tests, delivery planningMeasure, test the wiring and plumbing, and walk the street with the delivery driver to fix an unloading point and a time that will actually work.
- Weeks 1–3 — design and BOQLayouts and 3D views, with rewiring, plumbing and the handling allowance shown as separate lines.
- Weeks 4–6 — strip-out, services, notified noisy worksDemolition compressed into a notified block, then full rewiring and plumbing replacement.
- Weeks 7–12 — joinery and ceilingKnock-down modules in scheduled lift movements, assembled in the flat.
- Weeks 13–15 — finishes and handoverPaint, hardware, lighting, clean and snagging.
Owners we have worked for in Tardeo
Every delivery was to the minute and the tempo never stood for more than ten minutes. In our building that is the difference between cooperation and a war.
The demolition was done in four consecutive days with letters to every neighbour beforehand. Not one complaint, which has never happened here.
Tardeo is won and lost on logistics. The flats are ordinary high-end work; the street is the project, and any quote that does not address it is going to be late.

Frequently asked questions
How much do interiors cost in Tardeo?+
₹2,490–₹4,260 per sq ft of carpet. A 780–1,080 sq ft 2BHK is ₹19.4–26.9 lakh at an essential finish and ₹33.2–46.0 lakh at luxury, ex-GST, plus ₹40,000–₹95,000 for the marshalled delivery handling this district requires.
Why is delivery so difficult in Tardeo?+
Because there is no kerb to spare. The district is among the densest residential areas anywhere, every second plot has a redevelopment hoarding taking street width, and there is nowhere for a vehicle to stand at any hour. We fix a timed unloading window with a handling crew waiting, the tempo unloads in ten minutes and leaves.
What can a 250 kg lift actually carry?+
Two people and a knock-down wardrobe module, roughly. Not a finished full-height unit, not a 3 m stone slab, and not a loaded trolley of ply. Everything is built as modules within the limit and assembled in the flat, and movements are scheduled outside the hours when residents need the lift.
Do I need to rewire a 1970s Tardeo flat?+
Almost certainly. Those circuits were sized for a fan, a fridge and perhaps one air conditioner, and the flat now runs four units plus an inverter. We megger-test in week zero and quote the rewire and distribution board upgrade as a visible line. The galvanised plumbing is usually in the same condition.
How do you manage noise complaints here?+
By compressing the noisy scope. Demolition and core drilling run in one notified block of three to four consecutive days, with letters to the neighbouring flats beforehand, rather than being spread across a month. The 1970s construction transmits impact noise readily, and a predictable four days is accepted where a month of intermittent hammering is not.
