Cost of living in India differs greatly from one region of the country to
another. While the cost is nominal in smaller towns and cities, it is higher
in bigger cities and metros. The cost of a product also varies depending on
whether it is an industrial town or not. While the price of food is
reasonable, other household expenses, such as rent, are growing due to the
country’s expanding economy. Public transportation provides an inexpensive
way to get around, with buses, trains, taxis and subways. Purchasing a car
is also a reasonable alternative. Good health care is available to
expatriates living in the major metros, and the cost of medicine is very
low. India, as compared to other countries, has a low personal income tax
rate. Most expatriate workers in India are required to pay income tax.
The cost of daily items of groceries in the Indian capital New Delhi is
compared with US dollar and UK Pound and European Euro. These costs may vary
on day-to-day basis depending on the currency variations. The cost of most
of the grocery items is within the reach of almost all classes of society. A
kilo of tomatoes or most vegetables cost approximately USD 0.28, a loaf of
bread comes for about USD 0.23, Half-kilogram butter for USD 1.28, 10 eggs
for USD 0.50, a pack of cigarettes for USD 0.69. One can go out and have a
cafe meal for USD 2.3 and a restaurant meal for USD 6.9; a chilled beer can
costs about USD 1.5.
The amount you are paid as a TEFL teacher is more than enough to lead a
lavish life in India. Make the best use of your teaching opportunity to
enjoy what the country has to offer.
