Detailed information about Low Cost Porta Cabin
Low Cost Porta Cabin — Where the Price Comes From and What You Trade
A low cost porta cabin is not a structurally weaker product — it is a specification decision. Understanding which choices reduce the price — and which are never reduced regardless of budget — is the only way to know whether the lowest available price delivers what your deployment actually needs.
What Makes a Porta Cabin Low Cost — The Three Specification Tiers
The hub page lists Rs 1,050 to Rs 2,500 per sq ft as price range. What it does not show is the specification behind each point on that range. This table does.
| Tier | Specification | Price Range | Right For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entry — no insulation | IS 2062 frame, 18-gauge corrugated MS panels, no wall infill, cement board floor | Rs 1,050–1,150/sq ft | Covered storage, short deployment, non-occupancy |
| Basic — glasswool infill | Same IS 2062 frame + glasswool between panels, cement board floor | Rs 1,150–1,400/sq ft | Standard site office, moderate climate, part-shift occupancy |
| Standard — 50mm PUF | Same IS 2062 frame + 50mm PUF sandwich panel, vinyl floor option | Rs 1,400–1,800/sq ft | AC-dependent full-shift occupancy, extended deployment |
A 10×10 ft porta cabin at the entry-level (no insulation) tier includes the following before dispatch:
IS 2062 Grade A base frame with four levelling feet. 18-gauge corrugated MS steel wall panels on all four faces — no insulation infill between the inner and outer panel. 18mm cement board floor. One lockable steel entry door with key. Two aluminium sliding windows with mosquito mesh. One LED tube light ceiling fitting. One 4-point electrical distribution board with 15A incoming provision.
What is NOT included at this tier: wall insulation (glasswool or PUF infill), AC mounting bracket and pre-wired conduit, additional windows beyond the standard 2, vinyl floor finish upgrade. Each of these is an add-at-quote-stage upgrade. Glasswool infill adds approximately Rs 8,000 to Rs 12,000 for a 10×10 ft cabin. PUF sandwich panel upgrade adds Rs 18,000 to Rs 28,000. AC bracket and conduit adds Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,500. Vinyl floor finish adds Rs 3,500 to Rs 6,000.
The entry-level package is a fully functional, factory-built cabin. It is complete for the deployments it is designed for.
