Climate and orientation

Dry Braj heat with dust laden winds and cold January nights; small deep set west windows, light coloured walls and an evening terrace are what people actually use. We also check the plot facing early, because Vastu placement and sun path have to be solved together.

Soil and structure

Dense doab loam with hard kankar layers at depth that give good bearing; saline patches near the canal call for sulphate resistant cement. Our structural engineer sizes footings and columns from the soil report, which is why we ask for a soil test before the working drawings are issued.

Approvals in Aligarh

Plans are sanctioned by Aligarh Development Authority and Nagar Nigam. Development authority plots typically permit ground plus two floors with front setback; unapproved colony plots often need layout regularisation before sanction. We draw to those setbacks and ground coverage limits from the first sketch, so the sanction drawing and the design are the same drawing.

Construction cost in Aligarh (2026)

Expect roughly Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,400 per sq ft for an independent house, labour and material, excluding land. Standard finishes sit at the lower end; stone elevations, premium flooring and modular interiors push it to the top. Try the construction cost calculator for your plot, or read how construction cost per sq ft breaks down.
