Bori (Cement Bag)
Bori is the cement bag as this counter sells it, one bag at a time or by the tonne on a bigger order, and the word carries the count a buyer actually says out loud: do bori, das bori, pachaas bori.

In EnglishCement bag, sold both by the piece and by the tonne
Every bag on the rack carries its own statutory marking under the maker's printed name, the cement type, the standard and the date it was made, and that small print is what a bori order really turns on rather than the brand across the front. A published thumb rule puts a full 1000 sq ft RCC house at about 400 to 450 bori start to finish, and the real count for any one stage, the niv, the lenter or the plaster, comes off the drawing rather than off that figure.
Stock on any one maker's bori shifts morning to morning. Six names stand on the rack here, ACC, UltraTech, Nuvoco, Ambuja, Shree and MP Birla, and which one is standing the morning of a pour is a phone call.
The count a buyer says without thinking
Chhat ke liye pachaas bori OPC chahiye, kal tak bhijwa dijiye.
Fifty bags of OPC cement are needed for the roof slab, delivered by tomorrow. The count and the type are both said in one line; what is still open is which maker's bori is standing that morning.
The rack, and the sums behind a bori
The rack a bori comes off, and the guide that turns a floor area into a bag count.
