Published 2026 guides put complete home interiors in Bangalore at roughly ₹4–7 lakh (essential), ₹7–12 lakh (mid-range) and ₹12–18 lakh+ (premium) for a 2BHK, and ₹6–9 lakh, ₹10–16 lakh and ₹17–28 lakh+ for a 3BHK, before GST. Villas and 4BHKs start at about ₹20 lakh. These are market ranges, not a quotation; your figure depends on how much joinery you build and the finish.

“How much will my interiors cost?” is the first question almost every homeowner asks, and the honest answer is a range.

What a complete home interior includes
- 3D design of every room on your floor plan
- Modular kitchen and, often, a utility unit
- Wardrobes with lofts in every bedroom
- TV unit, crockery unit, shoe rack and pooja unit
- False ceilings with lighting
- Painting, electrical changes and site supervision
Loose furniture, appliances, curtains and décor are usually extra. When you compare quotes, check that each one covers the same list; our guide to comparing interior quotations shows how.
What moves the cost up or down
| Factor | Effect on cost |
|---|---|
| Amount of joinery | The biggest driver: full-height wardrobes and extra units add the most |
| Board grade | BWP plywood costs more than MR or commercial board but lasts in kitchens and bathrooms |
| Shutter finish | Laminate is the base; acrylic, PU and veneer cost more |
| Hardware | Soft-close hinges, tandem drawers and corner systems add up |
| Ceilings and lighting | Coverage and the number of light points |
| Civil and electrical changes | Moving walls, plumbing or points |
Our what drives interior cost guide explains each factor in detail.

Getting a real figure for your home
Start with the interior cost calculator for a room-wise range in two minutes. Then share your floor plan: we discuss what you need, visit to measure, and give a written, itemised quotation with the board, finish and hardware for each unit. ModScale builds all joinery in BWP plywood.
Ask every designer whether their quote includes GST, false ceilings, painting and electrical work. Two quotes for the “same” 3BHK can differ by lakhs only because one leaves these out.
