You can find 2bhk in 20-25 man. And I go out to eat every weekend but keep it under 10-12k

Someone I know that lives in Mumbai is moving to Bangalore in 9 days.

3BHK house rent in gated society (Bellandur): 75k Food expenses: 15-20k minimum Domestic Help: 15k

Based on my conversation with said friend, Bangalore isn’t “cheaper” than Mumbai/Pune (which used to be the conception earlier)

It is his first Job, so he must be a fresher, so obviously he won’t be living in gated community.

I also moved in recently, did not get an appropriate flat to rent(1bhk in a preoccupied 2/3bhk) , my budget was 10-13k including maintenance
So decided to stay in PG in Sarjapur for 3-6 months. I pay 17k for a single room with 3 times very decent food(breakfast+lunch+dinner)
Power backup , wifi etc.

Near 80ft Road Indirangar. I rented the apartment during the pandemic and the owner is kind enough to not demand exorbitant rent increase.
