Buying guide
How to choose the right tile
Five decisions decide whether a floor still looks new in ten years. Work through them in this order — it is the same sequence our showroom consultants use.
1. Start with the room, not the design
Water absorption is the single most important spec. Vitrified tiles absorb under 0.5% water, which is why they suit kitchens, bathrooms, balconies and any wet or outdoor area. Ceramic wall tiles absorb 10–20% and belong on dry vertical surfaces only. Putting a wall tile on a floor is the most common — and most expensive — mistake in Indian homes.
2. Match the body type to the traffic
Glazed vitrified (GVT/PGVT) carries the design in a printed glaze layer and is ideal for bedrooms, living rooms and low-traffic commercial spaces. Double-charged vitrified carries 3–4 mm of pigment through the top layer, so wear does not expose a different colour — the right pick for hallways, showrooms and offices. Full-body vitrified runs the same colour through the entire thickness and is the only body type we recommend for industrial floors and heavy commercial traffic.
3. Choose a finish you can actually live with
High-gloss maximises light and makes small rooms feel larger, but it shows dust and footmarks and is slippery when wet. Matt hides both and is the safer choice for family homes. Carving and rustic finishes add tactile depth on feature walls. For bathrooms, balconies and around pools, insist on an anti-skid finish with an R10 rating or better.
4. Size the tile to the space
As a rule of thumb, fewer grout lines make a room read larger. 600×1200 mm and 800×1600 mm suit open-plan living areas; 600×600 mm is the workhorse format for bedrooms and mid-sized rooms; 300×450 mm and 300×600 mm are the standard bathroom and kitchen dado wall sizes. Under 400 mm, layout waste rises sharply in rooms with awkward corners.
5. Order 8–10% more than the room measures
Cutting waste, breakage in transit and a reserve for future repairs all come out of that margin. Diagonal layouts need closer to 15%. Always buy the full requirement in one lot — shade and calibration vary between production batches, and a batch bought six months later will not match.

Tiles — frequently asked questions
Straight answers to what buyers ask us most about tiles.
What is the difference between ceramic and vitrified tiles?
Vitrified tiles are fired with silica and clay at a higher temperature, which fuses the body into a glass-like mass and drops water absorption below 0.5%. Ceramic tiles absorb 10–20% water. That single difference means vitrified tiles can go on floors, in bathrooms and outdoors, while ceramic tiles should be used on dry interior walls only. Vitrified tiles are also harder, denser and far more resistant to staining.
Which tile size is best for a living room?
For most Indian living rooms, 600×600 mm is the practical default and 600×1200 mm is the premium choice. Larger formats mean fewer grout lines, which makes the floor read as one continuous surface and the room feel bigger. If your living room is under about 120 sq ft, stay at 600×600 mm — very large tiles in a small room produce heavy cutting waste at the edges.
How many tiles do I need for 100 square feet?
Divide the floor area by the area of one tile, then add 10% for cutting and breakage. A 600×600 mm tile covers about 3.87 sq ft, so 100 sq ft needs roughly 26 tiles, or 29 with wastage. Tiles are sold by the box: a 600×600 mm box usually holds 4 tiles (about 15.5 sq ft), so you would order 8 boxes. Our tile calculator does this for any size in a few seconds.
Which tiles are best for a bathroom floor?
Use anti-skid vitrified tiles with a matt finish and an R10 slip rating or better. Bathroom floors combine water, soap film and bare feet, so slip resistance matters more than looks. Keep the tile size at 300×300 mm or 600×600 mm so the floor can be laid with enough slope to the drain, and pair it with a 300×450 mm or 300×600 mm glazed ceramic wall tile.
Which tiles should I use for parking and driveways?
Parking tiles are a distinct product: thicker, heavily textured for grip, and engineered to take vehicle point loads without cracking. Use a full-body or heavy-duty vitrified parking tile of 300×300 mm or 400×400 mm, laid on a properly compacted and levelled base. Standard floor tiles will crack under a car within a season.
What is the difference between GVT and PGVT tiles?
Both are glazed vitrified tiles. GVT (glazed vitrified tile) carries a printed design under a protective glaze. PGVT (polished glazed vitrified tile) is the same construction with the glaze polished after firing, which produces a deeper gloss and a smoother surface. PGVT looks richer and reflects more light; GVT in a matt finish is easier to maintain and safer underfoot.
How much do tiles cost per square foot in Hyderabad?
Ceramic wall tiles typically start around ₹30–45 per sq ft, glazed vitrified floor tiles run roughly ₹45–90 per sq ft, and double-charged or large-format 600×1200 mm tiles sit above that depending on design and finish. Bandhan Ceramic follows a One Nation One Price policy, so the rate you are quoted is the same at all 12 showrooms. Message us on WhatsApp with your area and we will send a written quote.
Can I use wall tiles on the floor?
No. Wall tiles are thinner, softer and far more porous — they are not rated for foot traffic and will crack, stain and become dangerously slippery. Floor tiles can be used on walls, but not the other way round. If you want a matching look, choose a floor tile and its companion wall tile from the same series.
