SCO stands for Shop-Cum-Office, a commercial plot format that typically allows the owner to construct a building with retail space on the ground floor and office or additional commercial space on upper floors, offering more flexibility than a single-use commercial unit.
Because SCO plots are sold as land with construction rights rather than a ready unit, buyers need to factor in construction cost, timeline and approvals in addition to the plot price itself.
This format tends to appeal to buyers who want direct ownership and control over a commercial building's design and use, rather than purchasing a pre-built unit within a larger complex.
