Cost of Living Calculator: US vs. India
See what your salary is really worth across cities, adjusted for the everyday cost differences that a currency conversion alone misses.
Equivalent lifestyle-cost salary
Composite cost-of-living index estimate, not a salary negotiation benchmark — it doesn't price in taxes, employer benefits (health insurance, 401(k) match), or personal spending habits, all of which shift the real comparison. Use it as a starting point, refreshed periodically as underlying costs change.
