2. Cost of household grocery per month
3. Cost of utilities ( electricity / water etc. ) per month
4. Cost of child education in indian / international school per month
5. Any other miscellaneous expenses

Please let me know the cost in USD.

Also pls suggest anything else important to be kept in mind while negotiating salary with the employer.

Thanks.
