Cost of Setting up an Office in India

Some IMers might be interested in musing over office costs , salaries, benefits etc in Mumbai area. These are not 2006 costs...

Should you "India-enable" your software firm? 2003
"We're all familiar with the disparity in annual salaries for
programmers: $10,000 in India versus $66,100 in the U.S. It should be obvious—but it's far less publicized—that you can save just as much on other positions: The average for an IT manager in India is $8,500, while his counterpart in the U.S. makes $55,000; an accountant makes $5,000 in India versus $41,000 in the U.S.; and an Indian with a financial operations title earns $5,500, compared to $37,625 in the U.S."

Anyone has data, information on costs of other positions in eg telephonist, office receptionist, copy person, driver etc. , would appreciate learning of these.

The costs of carrying out business depend on which city is chosen. There is a huge difference in salaries/rent/utilities between Mumbai and Chennai and between Delhi and Calcutta.
