Super built-up area adds a proportionate share of common areas like lobby, staircase, and lift (typically 20–30% more than carpet area).
| Area Type | What It Includes | Typical Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| Carpet Area | Usable floor space inside walls | 100% (base) |
| Built-up Area | Carpet area + wall thickness | 110–115% of carpet |
| Super Built-up Area | Built-up + share of common areas | 120–130% of carpet |
