For a living room in a 1BHK in Mumbai on a low budget, these are realistic cost estimates and influencing factors:
Mumbai benchmarks & constraints
- Designers in Mumbai often quote βΉ250 to βΉ500 per sq ft for standard interiors (includes full work) (NoBroker)
- Some interiors firms claim charges start at ~ βΉ120 per sq ft for minimal scope / basic design services (Swami Interior)
- For full 1BHK interiors (all rooms), basic finishes in Mumbai are estimated between βΉ2,00,000 and βΉ3,50,000 (NoBroker)
Estimate for living room only (low budget)
Assume your living room is ~ 150 to 200 sq ft. For low budget (modest materials, limited carpentry, basic lighting, paint, minimal custom work):
| Scope | Rate (βΉ/sq ft) | Cost range |
|---|---|---|
| Design + dΓ©cor only | βΉ60 β βΉ120 | βΉ9,000 β βΉ24,000 |
| Basic interior + modular furniture + finishes | βΉ300 β βΉ500 | βΉ45,000 β βΉ1,00,000 |
| Better finishes / some custom carpentry | βΉ500 β βΉ800 | βΉ75,000 β βΉ1,60,000 |
If you tell me exact living room area and your maximum budget, I can give you a sharper number you can use.
