Modular Kitchen Cost Calculator

Factory-finished modular kitchens utilize precision machinery, edge-banding hot-melt glues, and boiling-water-proof (BWP) marine plywood. Traditional carpenters often use lower-grade commercial blockboards and hand-apply laminates, which are prone to peeling and moisture damage within a few years.

Once the 3D design design and material selection are finalized, factory production takes roughly 21 to 25 days. The physical on-site installation at your apartment or villa in Gurgaon or Delhi is completed within 3 to 5 working days.

In Gurgaon, the cost of a modular kitchen typically ranges from ₹1,500 to ₹4,500+ per square foot for woodwork and cabinetry. A basic setup using high-pressure laminates sits on the lower end, while premium layouts featuring anti-scratch acrylic or seamless PU paint paired with German soft-close hardware fall on the higher end of the spectrum.

Granite remains a highly durable, budget-friendly classic, usually costing between ₹150 and ₹400 per sq. ft. premium Indian Quartz has become the top choice for modern builder floors and luxury high-rises in Gurgaon. It is non-porous, stain-resistant, and visually seamless, ranging from ₹400 to ₹1,200+ per sq. ft., which can add roughly ₹30,000 to ₹60,000 to your total kitchen budget depending on layout size.

For the optimal balance of durability and cost, we strictly use 18mm BWP (Boiling Water Proof - IS 710 certified) Marine Plywood for all wet zones and sink base cabinets because it provides absolute immunity against water pooling and moisture. HDHMR (High-Density High Moisture Resistant) board is an excellent, warp-resistant, and highly cost-effective alternative for upper wall cabinets and dry pantries where direct water exposure is minimal.

Yes, hidden hardware mechanisms represent a notable portion of a premium modular kitchen quote. For instance, adding a heavy-duty rolling tall pantry unit can add ₹25,000 to ₹60,000 to your final bill, while blind corner optimizers (like "magic corners" or "lemans corners") add roughly ₹15,000 to ₹35,000. If you are designing on a tight budget, prioritizing standard tandem drawer boxes over complex pull-out mechanisms can save you up to 30%.

No, the calculator focuses exclusively on factory-finished cabinetry, shutters, and standard hardware installation. If your renovation requires relocating plumbing lines, breaking down partition walls for an open-plan kitchen layout, or adding dedicated electrical loops for heavy appliances (like ovens, built-in microwaves, or dishwashers), you should factor in an additional independent budget of ₹25,000 to ₹75,000 for MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) civil work.

Extremely close to reality. Assuming the dimensions you input are accurate, the estimate will be within a 10-15% variance of your final quote. The final price only shifts if you request structural changes, civil work (like moving plumbing), or highly specialised hardware after the initial consultation.

Yes. All figures generated by our tool factor in end-to-end delivery and professional installation by the Novella team. Civil work, plumbing, and electrical rewiring are not included as they require an on-site physical inspection.

Absolutely. The calculator is just your starting line. Once you have your baseline number, our interior designers can sit down with you to swap materials, perhaps choosing laminate for upper cabinets and acrylic for base units, to hit your exact financial comfort zone.
