Ask them for a complete breakdown of what they are installing.
This is not enough information and quite vague.
If you look at the line item #8 "1hp - 2hp Air-cond point using 2x2.5 mm PVC cable" this is how the quote should be done so you know what wires are being used. (although 2 wires only? Not 3??)
Similarly, the 63A/4P ELCB should be listed with complete information, and so should the wiring for your water heater.
Look, if I were quoting for a job, I'd gladly list "Water heater point using 3x (L,N,E) 4 mm² MEGA cable with Schneider Vivace 20A dual pole switch (with neon indicator), c/w dedicated Maxguard 20A, 10mA protection RCBO in DB".
You're paying for it.... ask for full information, and in writing. Good luck.

my contractor quoting this pricing for electrical work for my house renovation:
- wiring point: RM75
- power point: RM150
- aircond point (1hp): RM280
assuming it's following ST guidelines, are the prices reasonable?
thanks
AC point make sure include 4-wire IDU to ODU for true inverter support.- wiring point: RM75
- power point: RM150
- aircond point (1hp): RM280
assuming it's following ST guidelines, are the prices reasonable?
thanks

Ask what brand of wires being used as there are a lot of substandard cablesAlso your quote for RCD ["ELCB" need to specify 30mA otherwise they simply put a useless 300mA at half price]
30mA save lives, 300mA died 6x before tripping - humans start to die at just 50mA leaking thru the body
