Geography and method

The benchmark covers Greater Mumbai Municipal Corporation. The same MoSPI report treats Navi Mumbai, Thane, Kalyan-Dombivli, and Vasai-Virar as separate cities. It is a survey mean across workers, occupations, industries, employers, and sexes. It is not CTC, take-home pay, a professional salary, or household income.

Sources, freshness, permission, and review status

Salary benchmark: MoSPI, Labour Market Dynamics in Million-plus Cities, Table 8, Appendix B-28, PDF page 102 . Observation period: January to December 2025. Published 29 June 2026. Checked 28 July 2026; scheduled for review by 29 June 2027. Reproduction is limited to the attributed MoSPI aggregate under its public reproduction policy.

Rent: Magicbricks, NoBroker, and Housing.com sources were rejected because the available material did not meet the required combination of municipal geography, 1BHK configuration, furnishing/property detail, stable method, dates, and reuse permission. Public access alone is not permission to republish proprietary listing data.

Essential Living Costs: no eligible range was found. State consumption estimates and individual prices remain reasonableness context only. They are not combined into a synthetic Mumbai budget.

The complete review is recorded in the project's Mumbai evidence note. A later source must pass the same coverage, provenance, permission, freshness, and expiry checks before it can seed a result.
