PPP India (17.04), your current indian salary is 5700sgd or 290000inr. converting to PPP is 170000 intl dollar. (290000/17.04)

from 170000 to 9300 intl dollar, you effectively take a 45% pay cut in view of Singapore being more expensive.

A toyota altis in Singapore cost $90,000sgd.

Hard to maintain the usual standard of living. I would ask your company to offer another 10000sgd, so that your montly is 20000sgd if you want to have a car and send your kids to good school. You can justify with my calculations using PPP.

Is there an authoritative PPP list which you referred to? I would like to do some comparisons to other countries. Thanks!
