It depends on where you live, what kind of lifestyle you want. But here is a basic breakdown
Considering you are living in a 2BHK with your partner/friend.
Rent - 40k/month (20k per person)
Maid - 2.5k/month (1.25k per person)
Cook - 7k/month (3.5k per person)
Wifi - 699/month(100Mbps)(349 per person)
Mobile - 300/month for 1 person
Groceries - 15k/month (7.5k per person)
Electricity- anything between 2k-3k total(1.25k per person)
Travel depends on how far you are living from the office. But to give you a real life example- it cost 600rs for me to travel 9km(one way).
Rest is your weekend enjoyment and other fun, so thats up to you.

15,000 for groceries?! WTF?!

Liquor?

Expenses have no limit but I am listing basic needs 🏡 House - 10-15 K 🍜 Food - 6-8 K 🛜 Wifi + Mobile - 1K 🚍Commute- 1K
Extra 5K for other expenses
Note: Your office location, Food habit and lifestyle can move expenses up or down significantly

1k commute? Unless you live next to your office this is the cost for 2-3 days commute

So if you have your own scooty/ bike, then commuting is easy or still costs that much
