Attach the drawing and material list, signed by both.

Before you sign

Write down exactly what work is included, who gives the material, the amount or rates, the stages of payment and the dates — most disputes start where these were not written. Attach the drawing and the list of materials, signed by both. Building permission, labour and tax rules are separate questions: ask your local body, engineer or CA. For a large job, have a lawyer read the agreement.

Stamp paper and signing

Whether this needs stamp paper, and of what value, depends on your State and on the document — ask the stamp vendor, a notary or a lawyer. Tick "Printing on stamp paper?" to leave the space at the top of page 1. This is a draft in plain words: for a large amount or anything you may have to rely on in court, have a lawyer read it first.

Questions people ask

What should a thekedar agreement contain?
The owner and contractor, the work and site, whether material is included, the amount or rates, the start and finish dates, stage payments, and terms for extra work, defects and delay — plus both signatures and two witnesses.
Labour only or with material?
Choose on the form: labour only (owner gives material), with material, or a rate basis paid on measurement.
Does it check that payments match the total?
Yes — it adds the stage payments and warns if they don’t match the total amount.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The agreement is made in your browser and the PDF is created on your device.
