I'm trying to answer a few questions here - please bear in mind that Infotech city is quite far off from the main city of Jaipur. It's on Ajmer road near Mahindra SEZ. Last I visited the SEZ was about 6 months ago and that itself had a lot of barren land.

You should get something as low as INR 6000. Pls bear in mind that most of apartments in that area are new. So it would probably make more sense to live in an area closer to the city like Vaishali Nagar, Chitrakoot or Shyam Nagar, if its affordable to you.

DPS, Neerja Modi international and many other schools are there. I'm not an expert in this field though. Hopefully someone else will come along on this.

Not clear.

I really doubt it.

Yes you would. However, we eat a different grain of rice (longer). A few visitors from the south have told me on several occasions that it's a harder grain too and they wouldn't be able to eat it on a daily basis. Thick grain rice is Rs 25/- per kg and upwards, finer basmati is anything between Rs 45/- to Rs 120/- per kg that most locals would eat.

That area is actually better off. However, on the whole, you cannot compare Jaipur with a place like Bangalore or Mangalore where water is abundant. Growing up, in a prime colony we used to get water only morning and evening for half hour each. Now, it has improved considerably. In that area, since population pressure is low, it should be a better situation. In case of acute shortage, tankers of water for about Rs 200/- should be available.

Bangalore weather was much milder than Jaipur. I've been only once to Mangalore so not a fair comparison. Jaipur is harsh sun, dry weather. Summers are bad, winters are good. Pls check other sites and draw your own inference.

Rent will be your biggest expense and school fees perhaps second, commute would be third.

I cant comment on the specific skill set but primary education is a booming industry.

If you know hindi, you'd be just fine. I've even known several international students who know only english and are doing just fine!

hope this helps.

thank you very much Mr. vaibhav_arora...you help us.
