Hi Asha,
Saw the post today, hence the late reply....
I am staying in B'lore for last 5 years, was in Chennai 5 years prior to this...
1. As many said, depends on the location rent would be different - places like Koramangala/ Indira Nagar would be expensive. When we stay with the family we have to look at the location too...
2. Maids are very expensive ( i am paying 4k as salary+medical+dress+up and down travel (to home town)+phone expenses+other necessary things)
3. Autos : Meter runs so fast - best thing if you know how much it is going to cost you, tell him the amount and get in to the auto. And they will charge you Rs10 or 20 extra if it is after 6.30/7.00 PM (People are ready to pay that is the reason)
If you have own vehicle that is the best thing, but you will go mad in the traffic especially in the office time
4. Regarding vegetables and fruits : Madiwala you will get apple at Rs 70-90. But in my place Rs 120!!! ( Again depends on place)
5. There are many A/c volvo buses as well.. starts at Rs 13/-
6. We would get meals at Rs 25/- (in small joints).. I prefer home cooked food than this with flu around.. cheap too..
I would say cost of living in B'lore is high... But end of the day how you handle your fund matters.. buy vegetables and grocery in places where it is cheap ( there are few places we will get grocery lesser than MRP)
Appreciate your effort for helping your friend...

Asha,
Fine with the words of "saving money" but let me emphasize that in Bangalore you shall look for much more offers which in a while will have a good hike on the CTC.
Just ask your friend to check with properly and to take up a decision. I still say that he can relocate with 35k in hand he can save at least 15k a month. which in a year will sum up to 1,80,000/year. Then ask him to look for a change in any big company ask for a 30% hike (minimum) which will fetch him at least 45k in hand...Come on its not much calculative....

Hi Jeeva,
Certainly bangalore more costly Trivandrum. I have stayed both the places. When I shifted from TVM to bangalore the house rent I had to pay in fact 3 times. I was paying 3K for decent 2BHK in TVM city where as I had to pay 8.5 K for the similer house in banglore.
