The Complete Commercial Fit-Out Cost Breakdown for Kolkata Offices

Planning a commercial office fit-out in Kolkata can feel confusing when every contractor gives you a different price per square foot. One quote may include furniture and electrical work, while another may exclude HVAC, fire safety, networking, approvals or loose furniture. That is why the right way to plan an office fit-out is not simply to ask, “What is the cost per sq ft?” Instead, businesses should understand where the money is actually being spent. For 2026, conventional office fit-outs in India can range from roughly ₹900–₹3,500+ per sq ft, depending on the specification and inclusions. Higher-specification corporate fit-outs can be considerably more expensive. This guide explains the major cost components involved in a commercial office fit-out in Kolkata, what affects the final budget, and how businesses can avoid unexpected expenses.
