A Complete Cost Guide with Itemised Estimates for Essential, Premium, and Luxury Packages
You've just received the keys to your 2BHK apartment. The excitement is real—but so is the question that follows: How much is this going to cost?
For a 2BHK in India, interior costs can range from ₹4.5 lakh to over ₹20 lakh, depending on your city, flat size, material choices, and level of customisation. For a mid-range, well-designed 2BHK with quality materials and modular solutions, a realistic budget falls between ₹6 lakh and ₹10 lakh.
But what exactly goes into that number? And how does NoBroker Interiors structure its pricing? Here is a detailed breakdown for 2026.
The Big Picture: What You Get at Every Budget
NoBroker Interiors offers tiered pricing that makes it easy to match your budget to your expectations. Here is how the three main package levels compare:
| Package Level | Cost Range (2BHK) | What You Get |
| Essential / Basic | ₹4.5 – ₹8 lakh | Basic modular kitchen, simple wardrobes, TV unit, basic lighting, simple false ceiling |
| Premium / Mid-Range | ₹6 – ₹10 lakh | Better modular kitchen, stronger wardrobes with loft storage, false ceiling with lights, wall designs, basic furniture |
| Luxury / Premium | ₹10 lakh+ | High-quality kitchen fittings, stylish wardrobes, designer ceilings, custom furniture, acrylic or PU finishes |
For a home under 800 sq ft, NoBroker's own estimates for Pune show Essential at ₹8.90 lakh, Premium at ₹11.05 lakh, and Luxe at ₹15.27 lakh—covering the living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom, and dining area.
Cost Per Square Foot: The Industry Benchmark
Most interior firms quote on a per-square-foot basis. For 2026, here are the current rates:
| Package Level | Cost Per Sq. Ft. | Best For |
| Basic | ₹1,200 – ₹1,800 | Budget-conscious homeowners |
| Mid-Range | ₹1,800 – ₹2,800 | Quality finishes and better storage |
| Premium | ₹2,800 – ₹4,500+ | Luxury materials and custom designs |
For a 1,200 sq ft flat, this translates to approximately ₹14–18 lakh for basic, ₹18–30 lakh for mid-range, and ₹30–50 lakh+ for premium.
Itemised Cost Breakdown for a 2BHK
Here is a room-by-room breakdown for a typical 2BHK of 800–1,000 sq ft:
| Room / Element | Estimated Cost | What's Included |
| Modular Kitchen | ₹1.5 – ₹3 lakh | Cabinets, countertops, basic fittings, hardware |
| Wardrobes (2 Bedrooms) | ₹1 – ₹3 lakh (total) | Storage units with loft space |
| Living Room | ₹1 – ₹2 lakh | TV unit, sofa, basic decor |
| False Ceiling & Lighting | ₹70,000 – ₹1.5 lakh | Gypsum ceiling with integrated lights |
| Furniture & Decor | ₹1 – ₹3 lakh | Beds, dining table, additional pieces |
| Electrical & Painting | ₹80,000 – ₹1.5 lakh | Lighting fixtures, wall finishes |
For an 800 sq ft 2BHK, the average standard package cost falls between ₹11 and ₹15 lakh, depending on material selections and customisation.
Modular Kitchen: The Single Largest Cost
The kitchen is typically the most expensive single element in any interior project.
| Kitchen Type | Cost Range | Price Per Sq. Ft. | Ideal For |
| Semi-Modular | ₹1.8 – ₹2.5 lakh | ₹1,300 – ₹1,900 | Compact, budget-friendly homes |
| Full Modular | ₹2.5 – ₹4 lakh | ₹1,900 – ₹2,900 | Premium homes, larger spaces |
Semi-modular kitchens are 10–15% cheaper than full modular and include basic cabinets, countertops, and essential storage. Full modular kitchens offer built-in appliances, soft-close drawers, pull-out units, and premium finishes.
For NoBroker Interiors specifically, a modular kitchen base unit using BWP plywood with laminate starts at around ₹1,550 per sq ft and goes up to ₹3,000 per sq ft for premium brands.

Practical Tips for Budgeting Your 2BHK Interiors
- Get an itemised quotation – Ask for a detailed breakdown that separates design, modular units, civil work, electrical, false ceiling, painting, and loose furniture.
- Prioritise daily-use areas first – Focus your budget on the kitchen, wardrobes, and storage. These are the most expensive to change later.
- Choose laminate over acrylic or PU – Laminate finishes are more affordable and still look great.
- Restrict false ceiling to key areas – Limit it to the living room and master bedroom to save costs.
- Consider EMI options – NoBroker Interiors offers home improvement loans starting from 7.99% p.a. with tenures up to 25 years.
- Lock your design early – Changes after manufacturing starts can be expensive and time-consuming.
