Overall, quite a dismal scenario in India. Strange that the health cover is also liable for service tax.
In my company, we have to buy cover for parents - it is not automatically available. More so, for anybody except self, I have to dish out 20% of the costs. I find this extremely unfair. A good pointer was the monthly income schemes but how many people have 10 lakh rupees in invest in such schemes? These solutions mostly suited the already well-off. If I have 10 lakh, i would consider investing a part of it in equities. What good is a 7500 monthly income these days?
And mr bong writer - can you please cut down on the unnecessary names of family members and include more non-bong examples in future?

Shutup Kaushik. Just focus on the topic being discussed..don't add comments which are uneasy to hear or read for anyone in the current world in any country. People are all busy making a good living in this competitive world and don't care of group based similarities but no one will tolerate any bad comments on a particular group someone belongs to. So be professional to be successful.
What is the cost of living in India per month in the metros for retired couple if they have their own home. I live outside and intend to retire in India soon.

The cost of living in India per month for a retired couple would be a max of Rs 10000 - all inclusive with basic needs and fun taken care of
