Relocating to Pune, India

15 years ago

Hello,

I come from Slovenia, Europe and am in negotiation with the company in PUNE to relocate there for work as of February 2009.

I would very much appreciate if you tell me about following topics and thus make me easier the decision:

-cost of living in Pune (f.e. can easily live with up to 300 INR per day?)
-accomodation (price per single room - but sharing appartment with others)
-renting byke, scooter (what is best way of moving around the city or around?)
-prices of food, drinks etc

Company is offering me 48.750 INR per month, after tax. How do you see that amount? I am speculating now if this amount is ok in order to be able to save about 25.000 INR per month, and with another 50% of the salary to live with and pay for accomodation etc.

Company does not offer pension scheme, how do you see this issue to deal with? I would like that some 15.000 INR go for pension scheme.

I welcome any help to clear these things for me so I can take decision easier.

You can write to: [email protected]

Thanks.
Borut
