Basic Fiber-Optic Extension

Extending broadband or fiber-optic lines to industrial plots involves trenching, cable laying, and installation of junction boxes or routers.

• Average cost ranges from ₹500 to ₹1,200 per running meter
  
• For a 100-meter extension, estimated cost is ₹50,000 to ₹1.2 lakh
  
• Includes fiber cabling, conduit, splicing, and basic installation equipment

Service Provider and Speed Requirements

Costs vary depending on the internet service provider (ISP), data speed, and whether it is a shared or dedicated leased line.

• Shared business plans: setup fees between ₹10,000 to ₹25,000
  
• Dedicated leased lines (1:1 ratio) may cost ₹50,000 to ₹1 lakh in setup charges
  
• Monthly plans range from ₹5,000 to ₹50,000+ based on bandwidth

Site-Specific Considerations

Location, terrain, and distance from the main network node influence total installation cost.

• Remote or undeveloped areas may require higher trenching or relay equipment cost
  
• Permissions and road-crossing approvals may add delays and charges
  
• Higher-end projects may include redundant fiber paths for uptime assurance
