What is the income category for an individual in lower ,middle, upper middle, rich clqss
Below 1 lpa : :((( 2-4 — Lower middle class 4- 8 —- Middle class 9-15 —- upper middle class 15+ upper class
What would you guys categorise?
One interview, 1000+ job opportunities
Take a 10-min AI interview to qualify for numerous real jobs auto-matched to your profile 🔑15 and you still can't afford a house. Not upper class bro 15 a month, probably then
😂 I don't think when >99% of the population don't earn >10L, 15L should be considered less than upper class.
On the earning scale atleast, i guess if you were to base the class on purchase power it'd make sense to hold maybe 30LPA as upper class. It's considering the whole country, even cheap cities like xyz city in UP. And for the whole of India, which includes people living in said xyz city.
0-12 LPA — poor 12-80 LPA — middle class 80-200 — upper middle class 200 LPA and beyond is rich
Upper class is when you don’t take “a salary” but just go to the bank to borrow a few hundred crores for a thing
What people miss here is background. My friends who earn half as me can maintain a class/spend which is twice of my spending. Reason, I have to work on basics first, home renovation for parents place or parents health costs. Whereas his responsibilities ends with earning for his luxuries.
Equal earning is not equal life standards.
It also depends on one’s background. Someone from a wealthy household with 8LPA is better placed socially than 20LPA from poor Tier 3 town family
Just stay classy, no need of class
Being in top 5% or 10%, I feel blessed.
Recently I came across a report in ToI that said earning 80 K per month puts you at top 4% in India. Assuming that the stats is true, do you feel contended with what you earn?

So, you belong to a group of 6 crore people. Congrats.
Should the tax slabs start at 12 LPA?
Don’t you think it’s kinda not fair to tax people especially in metro cities who earn less than a lakh a month. The cost of living in these places are already so high and due to that they may not even be able to make any investments. 12 ...
