Hi Ashish,
There are no standard rules or guidelines that determine PLC. Each developer and project has a different PLC amount and most of the luxury apartments located in a posh location have higher PLC based on each unit. Apart from the luxury projects, penthouses which are built on top of a tower or an independent villa with a wide road in front or garden facing, or corner plot etc. may also have a PLC.

Hi Shailja,
One can calculate the PLC amount by multiplying the super built-up area of the apartment with the rate specified in the developers rate card. PLC usually varies from Rs 40-150/sq-ft.

But remember, each floor may also have a PLC which is popularly known as the floor rise premium. It usually goes up once you cross the 3rd floor. Higher floors have a higher floor rise charge. This may usually vary from 3-4.5% of the total apartment cost.

Why there is a higher rate of PLC for the lower floor in Delhi/NCR?

Well Shailja,
Due to excessive heat, floor charges in Delhi-NCR is higher for lower floor apartments. On the opposite, in cities like Mumbai and Bangalore, the floor rise charges is more as one goes higher up.

Hi,
PLC is a premium cost which a home buyer pays while booking a unit with a better location situated in the same apartment complex. An apartment facing a sea, swimming pool, lake or a park, or Vastu compliant home will be charged a PLC at per sq-ft. rate.

How should we calculate PLC? What will be the standard PLC charges for an apartment or flat?
