Indian Professional Says US Crore Salary Saves Less Than India
Indian earning Rs 1 crore in US says he saved more with Rs 25-lakh salary in India · indianexpress.com

Nitin Malhotra has worked in the United States for 15 years.

He says he earns nearly Rs 1 crore each year there.

That sounds like a very large salary.

However, he must pay taxes and a mortgage for his home.

Other everyday costs can also reduce how much money remains.

Malhotra compared this with his earlier Rs 25-lakh salary in India.

He says he was able to save more money in India.

His story shows that a bigger salary does not always mean bigger savings.

The amount people save depends on both income and living costs.
