If you are planning a new kitchen, flooring, or renovation, you might be wondering: “What is the price of Absolute Black Granite per square foot?
This article explains the price in simple, easy-to-understand language, so you can make the right decision without confusion.
What is Absolute Black Granite?
Absolute Black Granite is a deep black natural stone known for its smooth, elegant appearance. It is commonly used for:
- Kitchen countertops
- Flooring
- Bathroom vanities
- Wall decoration
Price of Absolute Black Granite per Sq Ft
The price can vary depending on quality and thickness. On average:
₹120 to ₹200 per square foot
Cheaper options may be available around ₹90–₹100, but these are usually lower-grade or unpolished varieties.
Factors that Affect the Prices
Quality / Grade
Higher quality granite (fewer faults, better polish, uniform colour) will cost more.
Thickness & Finish
- Thicker slabs cost more.
- Polished finishes, special edges or large formats add cost.
For example, a 14 mm thickness product may carry a higher rate.
Source / Quarry & Transport
If the material is from a remote quarry, import cost or transportation to your site adds to cost.
Size of Tile or Slab
- Larger slabs with fewer joints are costlier. Smaller tiles may be cheaper per sq ft.
- Also, wastage during cutting, transport damage and handling add to cost.
Region / Supplier Mark-Up
- Local demand and supply play a role. In some states or cities, rates may be higher or lower.
- For instance, one supplier shows ₹120-₹150 in one region
Installation & Additional Work
While the “price per sq ft” often refers to the material only, you also must consider: cutting, edging, polishing on-site, sealing, transport, labour. These can add significant cost especially for custom installations.
Tips Before You Buy
- Ask for samples – Check colour, finish, grain and uniformity.
- Confirm thickness & finish – A slab may be quoted at a certain price but thinner stock or lesser finish may cost less.
- Check what the price includes – Is it just material? Or does it include transport, polishing, sealing, installation?
- Measure accurately – Get square footage measured and add 5-10% extra for wastage, cutting, joints.
- Check supplier reputation – Look for reviews or examples of past work. A cheaper price might mean compromise in quality.
- Consider long-term value – Granite like Absolute Black is durable; investing slightly more in quality may pay off through longevity.
- Negotiate for bulk – If you are ordering large area (flooring, lobby etc.), you may get discounts.
Why Choose Absolute Black Granite?
- Its dark, uniform appearance makes it versatile for many design styles (modern, classic, luxury).
- The dark colour hides stains or minor marks better than very light stones.
- Good durability: suitable for high-traffic areas, countertops, flooring.
- Adds value to your property through aesthetic appeal and durability.

Example Calculation
Let’s say you need granite for a kitchen countertop of 50 sq ft. If the material cost is ₹150 per sq ft:
- Material cost = 50 × 150 = ₹7,500
- Add ~10% wastage & cutting = ₹750
- Installation + transport (say) = ₹2,000 (rough estimate)
Total estimated cost ≈ ₹10,250
Summary
- The typical price of Absolute Black Granite in India is roughly ₹120 to ₹200 per square foot, depending on many variables.
- Always check what the quoted price includes, and factor in installation, wastage, transport.
- Investing in a higher quality slab can mean better longevity and better appearance.
