The Spending Habits of Urban India: A Comprehensive Study Understanding the Spending Patterns in Indian Cities How do urban Indians manage their earnings? What are the major expenses that consume their income? Home Credit India conducted an extensive study across 17 cities in the country, titled "The Great Indian Wallet," to delve into these questions. Rising Costs: Rent and Education Top the List Despite the hope for increasing incomes, urban residents are facing higher expenditures. The survey revealed that in Hyderabad, the average monthly income increased from ₹42,000 to ₹44,000 in 2023. However, expenses have outpaced income growth, with monthly expenditures rising from ₹19,000 to ₹24,000. A significant portion of this income goes towards essential expenses. Rent and groceries account for 21% of the income, while 17% is spent on children's education. These essentials form a large part of the household budget. Discretionary Spending: Travel and Dining Urban Indians also indulge in discretionary spending. According to the study, 35% of the discretionary budget is spent on travel and vacations, reflecting a growing interest in exploring new places. Additionally, 28% of the income is allocated to dining out, indicating a preference for experiencing diverse cuisines. Entertainment is another notable expense. People spend 19% of their income on movies and 10% on OTT (over-the-top) entertainment platforms. This shows a strong inclination towards various forms of digital and cinematic entertainment.

ACB Raids: ACP Caught in Corruption Scandal Hyderabad CCS ACP T.S. Umamaheswara Rao Nabbed by ACB The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has apprehended Hyderabad CCS ACP T.S. Umamaheswara Rao on charges of corruption. Early Tuesday morning, ACB officials arrived at his residence in Ashok Nagar, Hyderabad, and took him into custody. Excessive Wealth Case Against Umamaheswara Rao ACB officials discovered Rs. 37.5 lakhs in cash, 60 tolas of gold jewelry, two bank lockers, and properties in 17 locations during the raids. These findings indicate wealth far exceeding his known income. Simultaneously, multiple teams conducted raids at 14 locations across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, including the homes of Rao's brother, relatives, and close associates. The total value of assets seized is estimated to be around Rs. 3.46 crores, though market value assessments suggest it could be much higher. ACB's joint director, Sudhindra, supervised the operations and confirmed that Rao will be presented in court on Wednesday. Investigations are also looking into his involvement in illicit FMCG investments. Dazzling Wealth Uncovered During the raids, ACB teams uncovered Rs. 37.5 lakhs in cash and 60 tolas of gold jewelry. They also seized documents for properties located in 17 different areas, including prime locations in Hyderabad's outskirts. Specifically, they found properties in five places in Ghatkesar, seven in Visakhapatnam and Chodavaram, and one each in Shamirpet, Malkajgiri, and Kukatpally. Additionally, a luxurious villa in Shamirpet and two bank lockers were identified. The asset list is expected to grow as the investigation progresses. Rao was previously involved in investigating the fraud case of the real estate firm Sahiti Infra, which collected Rs. 2000 crores from hundreds of consumers through pre-launch offers but failed to deliver the promised flats, and even engaged in double registrations. The CCS had registered cases against Sahiti’s MD Budati Lakshmi Narayana and his family. Allegations have surfaced that Rao colluded with the company’s management, accepted hefty bribes, and even intimidated the victims. Suspicious Connections Telangana State
