This is highly subjective..what works for one may not work at all for others. Overall India is always a good place to live if you are rich ...you can almost bend all laws ,get whatever you want... it is not so good a place if you are a fan of a smooth system esp when you belong to middle or lower income...

So I was contemplating the same and trying to do some math. What’s the avg take home salary for a manager at a Big4 in India? Rent in major cities is easily above 30k minimum. Will we ever save anything?

I was told PWC India manager salary for tech consultant would be around 25 lakhs. Depends on experience, it can be higher or lower.

Don’t want to overstay the visa either. So we applied online on eFRRO to convert his visa to X-1 so we can apply for his OCI. They didn’t ask for payment and message popped up saying watch your text/email for next steps. Anything else I can do?
