Costing ka paper khatam karne ka nahi hota hai....75-80 marks hi attempt ho pata h....100 attempt karne jayega to disaster hi hota h....its a universal truth for costing paper!!

I really lost the track after 2 hours, there was't enough time even to read the questions, even 5 marks questions looked like 8 marks question. It was like mad mad race against, in the process I almost overlooked 3rd question which think was the easiest.Overall about 70 attempted. Just praying for 45 marks.
I did not use graph paper, instead solved the question on the answerbook itself!! Will it have any adverse impact? Although I got the seemingly right answer which I think is RS. 410.
For network I got 46 days... Anyone else?

Just saw the paper...Less technical and more of common sence needed!!!
and costing paper is purposely set lengthy to scare students but if you read the lengthy questions, they are easier ones actually!!
By the way 7 (a) was a good question...like a Puzzle :P
