How much it really costs for budget travel in India

Nameste' everyone from Rishikesh--

I have been traveling in norther cities for about 3 weeks now and i am in no way a vetran, but before my trip i had trouble finding a post that clearly stated was budget travel. I am suree you can do it for less than this but here is what I have been doing:

75 food
20 drinks
50-100 guesthouse
50 etc.
------
195-245 Rs per day.... thats about 4-5 dollars.

Keeep in mind transportation is cheap, but not that cheap becaus ciites are quite a distance from eeach other.

Just my 2 ceents. India is ammmaaazzziiiinnngggg

Sounds pretty good to me.

I wasn't particularly trying to live cheeply, but my liviing expenses in Chennai recently were only a bit more than yours except for the AC room at R715.
