When you see the price rise in Chennai, it is comparatively lower than in other metro cities which I have been. Recently my brother who had come from US was shocked to see the price rise in Chennai. Truly he hadn't expected the amount of this much price rise over there. It is not a shocking thing but this is the case throughout India. People have got accustomed to it.
My personal advice would be to do a little bit of research on what we are going to do and then act accordingly. For example if you want to buy anything in Chennai, just ask people in Chennai about where can we buy the thing, how much it would cost, and questions like that. This would give us the person the idea about the item. Then the person can proceed.
Or else we have to learn by ourselves and then understand. By this approach we would have wasted some amount of money and with that losing some peace of mind.
Be aware.

ReplyDeleteyes - I agree.
ReplyDeleteWhen I last visited chennai, Rs.100s was in high rotation.
Now (after 3 years), Rs.500s go very fast.
I am surprised to see that prices had raised - that too in Chennai (where there is no actual/solid development) within a very short time.
It is worst inflation I have ever seen. I am not sure how the Chennai people who earn less than Rs.5000 still survive in Chennai.
