Developer RA bills for building contractors

Developers and their PMCs check bills against the BOQ, the drawings and their own templates. There is no standard government form, and quantities are cut when they cannot be traced.

Recoveries that usually apply

Each one is configured once for the work order, at the rate or amount your contract sets, and applied the same way on every bill.

  • Retention, as the contract sets it, released after the defect liability period
  • Mobilisation advance, recovered over the bills the contract names
  • Cement and steel issued by the developer, reconciled against theoretical consumption
  • Income-tax TDS at the rate configured for the work order
  • Labour welfare cess, where the contract makes the contractor liable

See recoveries, GST and TDS

Why bills come back. And what Tatha Vastu does about each.

Returned forHow Tatha Vastu handles it
A quantity the PMC cannot trace to a drawing or photoThe PMC opens any line in the bill room and sees its measurement, drawing number and photo.
Steel weight that does not match the BBSSteel bills from BBS weights, bar by bar, and the BBS travels with the bill.
Issued cement or steel used over the theoretical figureIssued material is reconciled on every bill, so an excess shows before the PMC finds it.
A variation billed before the developer's approvalVariations bill only once the approval reference is entered.

Checked line by line in the bill room

The Developers engineer opens any line, sees its measurement and photo, then certifies it, certifies part or holds it with a reason. Certification stays with them.
