Many professionals considering moving from Saudi Arabia to India often overlook the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) difference. While a salary in India might look higher on paper, the cost of living could make it worth less.
Understanding the real value of your income is crucial when negotiating a remote salary or planning a relocation. This calculator helps you determine the equivalent salary you would need in India to maintain your current standard of living in Saudi Arabia.
Based on PPP data, the price level in India is approximately 12.83x that of Saudi Arabia. This means things are generally more expensive in India.
You are comparing SAR vs INR. Exchange rates fluctuate daily, but PPP provides a more stable long-term view of economic value and living standards.
