No. Once you get here you will wish you had never left your home country. Do you know what your accommodation is like? Probably a labour camp with a slot in a 4-story bunk bed with 16 guys in one room. Maybe 1500 is worth it for you, but nothing is worth how you will be treated here.

Yes, for a fresher this is good to start with. Because as you mentioned HRA + Food is provided by company. If you get a package of Qr 3000 almost all the expenses will meet the same. Best to take a start is good.

Apply policy of Malu's - Keralites they have technical and Engineering degrees. But to make an way in any company will also join as tea boy. Later will climb the ladders till good ranking and positions is occupyed and gain hold on position and company. And there journey starts pulling Relatives, Friends and Neighbors for there own communities only.

Yes you can live. But the offer is very low. Spend only for washing powder

1500

-300 for your expenses

1200 you can send to your home.

Not a good offer and if you can earn that money monthly in your country better stay and enjoy life with your family.
