Common plot sizes in Motihari

Most of the Motihari plots we design for fall in these sizes:

• 1,800 sq ft (approx 30x60)
• 2,400 sq ft

Browse 30x40 plans, 30x50 plans or 40x60 plans to see what fits, or go by 3 BHK layouts.

Climate and orientation

Champaran climate with hot humid summers, heavy monsoon rains near the Nepal border and cold winters. Flood-aware plinths and rain-shedding roofs are important. We also check the plot facing early, because Vastu placement and sun path have to be solved together.

Soil and structure

Fine alluvium with waterlogging and seismic zone IV, so wider footings or rafts and ductile RCC detailing are usual. 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 Motihari

Plans are sanctioned by Motihari Municipal Corporation. The corporation typically allows G+2 on standard residential plots with setbacks tied to plot area under Bihar bylaws. 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 Motihari (2026)

Expect roughly Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,200 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.
