Pune is very expensive city and I would never buy my Jewelry from there. If I had $8000 to spend I will do that in a smaller city (like Nashik, Ahmed nagar or Aurngabad) or Mumbai where you will get more bang for your buck. Ahmednagar is just 2 hours away.

All the best and let me know if you need any other info.

I diagree with you on the jewlery....grandparents, parents and now us have been buying jewelry in Pune...once you have contacts...you can get much better deals than say in Mumbai or any other towns...at BC Sen's in Calcutta, I get a 25% discount after negotiations because my family has been buying jewerly from them as long as I can remember..



I do agree with you on other things being born and raised in India....
