Bengaluru, India
The new tax regime applies slab rates with a cess on top, and employees contribute 12% of basic pay to EPF. Rents have risen sharply around the tech corridors, but everyday costs remain low, so a senior salary converts into unusually high local purchasing power.
Jakarta, Indonesia
Progressive income tax starts at 5% after a tax-free threshold, with small BPJS deductions for pension and health. Rents are moderate by regional standards, but long commutes and car ownership take a large share of take-home pay, so where you live matters more than the gross offer.
