Hi, I have got an offer from one of the companies in Doha. As of now the salary they are offering is around 9000 - 10000 QAR for the profile of IT Consultant. Just wanted to know how good is the offer as per the current living standards and cost of living in Doha. How much i will be able to save or not. I am a bachelor and will be staying alone.
Thanks in advance ppl!!

i think thats a good offer and after knowing that ur lifestyle is average and u wanna cook by urself and can adjust in shared accomodation...u can save almost 60-70 percent..bcoz shared accomodation for bachelor is hardly 2000QR and then your food may cost around 1500QR.GOOD LUCK

As u said, u have a very moderate lifestyle, u'ld be able to save a decent amount..

Accomodation may cost u from QR 3500-5000 for 1bhk and QR 5500- no limits for 2bhk..u can even go for the sharing accomodation that may sounds really cheaper option for u..

Daily necessites are bit pricey here compared to INDIA..But will u be cooking here on ur own or will prefer hotels?? There r many INDIAN hotels that offers some discount to their regular bachelor customers though i m not sure coz i have just heard it..

Quite good for a bachelor I would say. But depends upon your experience and also style of living.

Do a little search here in QL and would would find many similar threads. You would definitely get an idea about cost of living here.
