Natural Kota Limestone overview
Natural Kota limestone refers to the stone sold with its natural split or sawn surface, without polish. It is the most economical form and is widely used for industrial floors, parking, outdoor areas and projects where polishing will be done on site after laying.
On-site polishing after installation is a common practice in India and gives a seamless, level finish across the floor.

Buying guidance
- Ask for photos or a physical sample of the actual lot, not a catalogue image.
- Choose grade by visibility: selected grade for living areas, standard grade for back areas.
- Match finish to the area — never mirror polish on wet exterior surfaces.
- Calculate area in sq ft and add 5–10% wastage (more for random slabs).
- Confirm thickness tolerance, delivery timeline, freight and unloading responsibility.
