Bengaluru man says Rs 1.5 lakh/month not enough: 'Everything is super inflated'

I earn about Rs 1.5 lakh per month and have my family and an EMI to take care of in my hometown. I save up some money each month, let's say about 30-40k.” He mentioned that despite a good income, he and his fiancee still live in PG accommodation, unable to afford a decent rental space in the city’s expensive housing market. Everyone else gets to face the heat.” Figures from ANAROCK Group show that Bengaluru's Thanisandra Main Road recorded a 67% appreciation in capital values, surpassing the 62% increase in rental values, while Sarjapur Road's rental values increased 76%, greater than the 63% increase in capital values, between late 2021 and 2024-end.
