The Story in Brief
A Bengaluru couple spent Rs 2,53,500 while moving into a three-bedroom apartment in South Bengaluru, according to a cost breakdown shared on Instagram by Ana Mishra. The largest expenses were a Rs 1.5 lakh security deposit, Rs 37,000 brokerage and Rs 60,000 for transporting furniture from Kolkata. Mishra also paid Rs 3,000 to move her belongings from another Bengaluru apartment.
The couple spent Rs 2,800 a month renting a washing machine, refrigerator and water purifier, and Rs 700 relocating their Wi-Fi connection. The total excludes décor and other purchases. Mishra said the apartment is in AECS Layout, Singasandra. Hindustan Times said it had not independently verified the user-generated claims.
The Indian Opinion
Online reactions often turn one couple’s bill into proof that Bengaluru housing is either universally unaffordable or surprisingly cheap. Both readings go too far. The deposit and interstate move drove this particular cost, while the Rs 37,000 rent reflects one locality and one home, not the whole city. A useful comparison would need similar figures from several neighbourhoods, with rent, deposit and moving costs separated. Until then, this is a personal budget, not a citywide benchmark.
