Techie Explains Why Higher Salary in Bengaluru May Not Mean More Savings
A tech professional named Sumit highlighted that a higher salary in Bengaluru may not lead to greater savings compared to Delhi-NCR due to higher living costs. He explained that expenses like rent, food, travel, and frequent flights home can consume much of the additional income. Sumit estimated that these costs could total around ₹10 lakh annually, offsetting salary increases and urging job seekers to consider overall expenses before relocating for better pay.
