Compliance · CPWD OM 08-08-2024

Ahead of CPWD's own rollout — both methodologies, side by side.

CPWD issued OM dated 08-08-2024 revising how GST is applied in rate analysis — bringing GST from the older 21.27% compounded factor down to the corrected 18% methodology with Labour Cess now part of the application base. Most engineers are still stuck with the old methodology because CPWD themselves haven't yet released the updated PDF DSR reflecting this change.

Costimator gives you both. Pick the methodology you need for the current project — classic 21.27% factor to match the existing CPWD PDF, or the OM-compliant 18% factor to stay ahead of the curve. Every rate analysis uses the correct methodology, automatically.

Frequently asked

CPWD-specific questions, answered.

Does Costimator support the CPWD OM dated 08-08-2024?

Yes, fully. Every rate analysis uses the corrected methodology with Labour Cess added to the GST application base. The updated factor (~0.2016) is applied automatically — no manual configuration needed.

Which DSR editions are supported?

We support DSR 2023 (Civil) — the latest edition — in both the classic 21.27% GST methodology (matching the currently-published CPWD PDF) and the OM-compliant 18% GST methodology (future-ready, per OM dated 08-08-2024). More CPWD publications (earlier editions, specialist volumes) will be added based on user demand.

How fast are correction slips applied?

Within days of CPWD releasing the slip. No patches to download — you'll always be working with the latest rates the next time you log in.

Can I use Costimator for CPWD electrical, E&M, or horticulture works?

Not yet. Our current live coverage is CPWD Civil 2023. E&M, horticulture, and specialist volumes are on the roadmap — we add them based on user demand. If you're a CPWD engineer needing these publications, reach out via the Contact form so we can prioritize your work.

Is my CPWD data secure?

Yes. Your estimates are stored securely on enterprise cloud infrastructure, isolated per user, and encrypted at rest and in transit. No shared access, no cross-tenant exposure.
