Assuming you are planning to construct a room with a roof and this extension will bear the load of these structural members,you can still extend the upper floor slab by 30" by: 1) either erecting external columns/pillars - concrete/metal to allow the upper load to get distributed below.
2) OR use structural cantilever design for this 30" but then the upper members need to be light weight and the Ground Floor Ceiling(Slab) beam needs to have the strength to take up this additional shear load.
These are options but we STRONGLY advise not to go on your own but to consult an Architect or Structural engineer before commencing to get a complete analysis and site recede done to ensure safety of the building and its occupants.
All the best.

I had not extended the roof slab or any
beams as cantilevers earlier to make the balconies and one side (which is open
place) for the proposed upper floor as given sketch
Request to all senior member (Engineers) please suggest ................. | | |

It is better if you consult any structural engineer, who can visit the site and give design after seeing all aspects already constructed.
