Quick Price Answer
40mm aggregate does not have one fixed India-wide price. An August 2026 Nagpur market benchmark places 40mm coarse aggregate around ?850–?1,350 per tonne, averaging about ?1,100 per tonne. Your actual Yavatmal delivered rate can differ because quarry source, quantity, transport distance, GST, unloading and project location affect the landed price.

What Is the 40mm Aggregate Price Now?

If you searched 40mm aggregate price now, 40mm aggregate price per ton or 40mm stone price today, the most important point is that aggregate is a local delivered commodity. The plant rate is only one part of what your project finally pays.

As a nearby Maharashtra market reference, August 2026 Nagpur data shows 40mm coarse aggregate at roughly ?850–?1,350 per tonne, with an average near ?1,100 per tonne. A separate Nagpur supplier listing shows approximately ?1,000 per metric tonne. These are market references—not a fixed Shriram Group quotation.

Landed Cost

40mm Aggregate Price Per Ton: What Should the Quote Include?

Material rate

The ex-plant rate covers the aggregate itself and loading at the crusher. Delivery may be separate.

Transport

Because 40mm aggregate is heavy and low-value relative to freight, distance from crusher to site can materially change the final rate.

GST and documentation

Confirm whether GST is included and whether you will receive the required invoice, delivery challan and weighbridge slip.

Unloading and waiting

Check who handles unloading and whether vehicle detention or waiting charges apply.

The cheapest ex-plant rate is not automatically the cheapest purchase. Compare landed cost per verified tonne.

Material Applications

Where Is 40mm Aggregate Used Most?

40mm aggregate is a relatively large coarse aggregate. It is generally selected for thicker, less congested work where the specification and mix design allow a larger nominal aggregate size.

  • PCC and plain concrete work where the design permits 40mm aggregate
  • Mass concrete and large foundation sections
  • Selected raft and heavy foundation applications
  • Road sub-base and selected road construction layers
  • Soling, filling and drainage applications depending on specification
  • Infrastructure and civil works requiring larger graded stone
Do not substitute 40mm for 20mm simply because it is cheaper. Large stone is generally unsuitable for thin or heavily reinforced members unless the engineer and approved mix design specifically permit it.

Size Comparison

10mm vs 20mm vs 40mm Aggregate

SizeTypical ApplicationBuying Priority
10mmThin sections, congested RCC, precastGrading and shape
20mmGeneral RCC, slabs, beams, columns, footingsConsistency and concrete suitability
40mmPCC, mass concrete, foundations, selected road workCorrect size and specification

20mm remains the common all-round coarse aggregate for normal RCC, while 40mm is better suited to larger sections and applications where bigger aggregate is explicitly allowed.


Why Prices Change

8 Factors That Change the 40mm Stone Price Today

1. Crusher-to-site distance

Transport can become a major percentage of the delivered rate.

2. Quarry and rock quality

Rock source affects crushing cost, durability, consistency and project suitability.

3. Screening accuracy

A controlled 40mm product should not arrive with excessive fines, dust or unrelated mixed sizes.

4. Order quantity

Bulk scheduled orders can be easier to dispatch efficiently than isolated urgent loads.

5. Diesel and freight rates

Fuel, tolls, vehicle availability and route conditions affect transport quotations.

6. Season and quarry availability

Monsoon conditions, maintenance and demand peaks can influence supply.

7. Testing and compliance

Government, commercial and infrastructure jobs may require specified test documentation.

8. Delivery urgency

Same-day or emergency supply may have different logistics than planned dispatch.


Quality Checklist

How to Check 40mm Aggregate Before Buying

  • Confirm that the supplied nominal size matches your BOQ or approved specification
  • Check for excessive flaky and elongated stone
  • Reject loads visibly contaminated with clay, soil, organic matter or debris
  • Look for excessive crusher dust and undersize material
  • Check consistency between the approved sample and bulk deliveries
  • Request relevant test reports where the project requires them
  • Verify every commercial load using a weighbridge slip
  • Confirm quarry and crusher source for repeat bulk supply
Best practice: approve the material first, then compare price. Saving ?50–?100 per tonne has little value if the delivered load does not meet your project requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions

40mm Aggregate Price & Buying Questions

There is no single India-wide price. As an August 2026 nearby-market reference, Nagpur data shows roughly ?850–?1,350 per tonne, averaging around ?1,100 per tonne. Ask for the current delivered rate to your exact site.

The Yavatmal delivered price depends on plant location, quantity, freight, taxes and unloading. Request a current written quotation using your exact project location.

40mm aggregate is commonly considered for PCC, mass concrete, large foundation work, selected road layers, soling, filling and drainage where the specification permits it.

Only where the structural design, member dimensions, reinforcement spacing and approved concrete mix allow it. It should not replace 20mm aggregate in normal RCC without engineering approval.

It can be cheaper in some markets because less size reduction may be required, but local demand, screening, quarry source and transport determine the actual rate.

Add the material rate, freight, applicable GST, tolls, unloading and any waiting charges, then divide the total by verified delivered tonnes.

Buying per tonne with weighbridge documentation is usually more transparent. If quoted per truck, confirm actual payload and convert it to a comparable per-tonne landed rate.

Send the supplier your quantity, project location, delivery date and specification, then request a written delivered quotation with a validity period.



Conclusion

Buy 40mm Aggregate by Delivered Value, Not Headline Price

The 40mm aggregate price now is best treated as a local, delivery-dependent rate. Current nearby-market benchmarks are useful for budgeting, but your final buying decision should be based on the delivered cost per verified tonne, material quality, correct grading and dependable supply.

Shriram Group supplies crushed stone and construction materials for projects across Yavatmal and surrounding Maharashtra districts.
