Carpet Area is the area enclosed within the walls, the actual area to lay the carpet. This area does not include the thickness of the inner walls. It is the actual used area of an apartment.

Carpet Area

Technically, the carpet area is the net usable area measured wall to wall from its inner surfaces. Thus the thickness of the inner walls is not included. The carpet area is the actual usable size of the flat/villa minus the thickness of the wall.

This also includes the bathroom and kitchen. Any common areas outside the apartment like a staircase, lift, security room, etc., are excluded from this calculation.

Build-up area

This is the gross area of the flat which comprises the carpet area as well as the thickness of the walls and the ducts. The build-up area can be 15-25 per more than the carpet area and sometimes known as the plinth area

Super Build-up area

It includes common amenities such as the area of lift shafts, lobby, and corridor, proportionately divided among all flats. The common usable areas, such as the swimming pool, garden, and clubhouse may also be included in it. In other words, the super build-up area is the total saleable area.
