Once the committed move-in date crosses 15 days, it will be 0.1% of the project value. However, the maximum delay value cannot exceed 3% of the total project value.
Definition of Move-in
Well, you can consider a project to be ready to move-in when the significant portions of your project are functional. For instance, if the renovation of your office/ house is going on, and kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom (for residential) and office rooms, reception, cabins and bathrooms (for commercial) are useful, then it will be considered as ready to move-in.

We will make it under review so that we can acknowledge the estimation of the move-in date. Well, we will calculate the duration, after admitting the total number of days the customer will take for its scope of work.
