Leaking per year
Per day

Most contractors leak 2–3% and find out at year-end. sotyn.ai surfaces it the same day.

How to use it — and why it matters

Contractors rarely lose money on bad projects — they lose it in the gaps between quoting, site execution, material, labour and collection. Industry experience puts this silent leakage at roughly 2–3% of turnover for firms still running on WhatsApp and Excel. This calculator turns that percentage into the rupees you're likely losing every year, and every day.

Where does the leakage actually happen?

The usual six: quoting below true cost, material over-consumption and off-market buying, ghost labour, rework and delays, slow billing, and cash stuck in receivables. Each is small; together they add up to 2–3%.

Is 2.5% a fair default?

It's a conservative mid-point for a firm without connected systems. If you already have tight controls, use a lower figure; if quoting, material and billing all live in separate places, it's often higher.
