A false ceiling in Mumbai usually costs ₹90 to ₹160 per square foot of ceiling area, depending on the material and the design.
| Type | Approx. cost per sq ft |
|---|---|
| Gypsum board, simple flat or border | ₹90 – ₹120 |
| Gypsum with cove / profile lighting | ₹110 – ₹150 |
| POP (plaster of Paris) design | ₹100 – ₹160 |
| Wooden or PVC panels (partial) | ₹200 – ₹400 |
Gypsum or POP?
- Gypsum boards are factory-made, quick to install and give a clean finish — the common choice today.
- POP is made on site, allows curved designs, but takes longer and creates more dust.
- Both need a good painter for a smooth finish.
Plan these before work starts
- Position of lights, fans and AC units.
- Cove lighting and profile lights.
- Access panels for AC piping and wiring.
Lights, wiring and painting are usually priced separately. Ask us for a complete estimate for your room.
