Ideally under 10% post tax. Don’t go over 25%.

How the hell can the average person afford to only spend 10% considering how expensive Bangalore rent is. Rent in my society in Whitefield is 60k for a 3 BHK

A “society” immediately unchecks “average” unfortunately, as they only account for a fraction of total available housing

50K in expenses easily for a middle class lifestyle. Better option is to do remote. I left Bangalore and I am saving tons!

Ideally 10% but in Bangalore can go upto 15% easily.

You should spend 10k, your post tax income will be 142k/month, around 10%
