How do I measure for windows. This is a nely built property. All the
window openings are in place except things like internal plaster, Windows
Boards, External cills. Does the frame sit on the Window boards/external
cills?

You can do either (I am assuming upvc windows here) - either measure the
actual opening or deduct ~5mm all round to get the size of the actual frame.
Just make sure you tell the supplier if you have already made the deductions
or not.

The frame usually sits on the external cill, which in my limited experience
has a thickness of 30mm. So either subtract 30mm from your opening
measurement, or remember to tell the supplier that your quoted size needs to
include both the frame and the cill.
