What's the CPWD DSR rate to install a wash basin?
A complete wash basin install — basin, C.I. brackets, C.P. brass pillar tap, waste fitting, painting of brackets and making good the wall — as one CPWD item.
Preliminary Using CPWD DSR 2021 (Civil) item rates as published, this worked scenario adds up to ₹2,731.45 (items 17.7.4). The item rates are CPWD's Delhi base rates; the quantities and the item mix are NirmanDost's scenario, not a CPWD bundle — adjust both to your site and apply your local cost index.
