What is Kotah Stone (Kota Stone)?

Kota stone is a fine-grained limestone quarried mainly around Kota in Rajasthan. It is known across India for its toughness, non-slip surface and low cost, and builders use it for flooring in high-traffic commercial areas, industrial corridors, staircases and hospital pathways.

Practical example

An architect specifies rough-polished Kota stone, in place of costlier vitrified tiles, for the fire-escape stairwells of a 20-storey commercial tower. The stone gives a hard, anti-slip surface that withstands decades of heavy use without chipping.

In SuperWise

In SuperWise, Kota stone is a material resource with a unit of measure such as sq.m or sq.ft, so it can be bought by area. Each delivery is recorded on a material delivery challan against a purchase order line. Laying and polishing can go to a contractor on a work order, separate from the stone purchase.
