Delivery to Thousand Lights — questions
How much does 1 tonne of 20mm blue metal cost in Thousand Lights?
About ₹1,097 per MT delivered to Thousand Lights: our ex-works rate of ₹475, about ₹570 transport for ~105 km, and 5% GST. Royalty is itemised at actuals. If you buy by the unit, 1 unit (100 CFT) of 20mm jalli is about 4.4 MT.
Can a tipper deliver in Thousand Lights during the day?
Heavy vehicles face daytime entry restrictions inside Chennai city, so Thousand Lights drops are scheduled within the permitted hours and the slot is confirmed when you order. A 10-wheeler needs room to reverse and tip, so tell us the street width and where the load should go.
How many tonnes is 1 unit of M-Sand, and what does it cost in Thousand Lights?
1 unit = 100 CFT, about 4.75 MT of M-Sand (moisture moves it a little either way). Delivered to Thousand Lights at about ₹1,150 per MT, that is roughly ₹5,460 a unit with GST, royalty extra. An 18 MT tipper carries a little under 4 units.
Can you arrange cement, paint or plumbing items for a Thousand Lights site?
Yes, but they are not ours: cement, paints, putty, electricals, doors, windows, wood work, plumbing and tiles are arranged through local partner suppliers, who pay us a referral commission. Ask when you book your jalli, sand or stock order.
