these "tailored for me" requests are usually asked with usually the same response. do your own math.
now here are a few tips:
one saudi riyal is in rough equalevance with 10 Indian Rupees.
some indian families survive with monthly expenses close to the following examples:
2000 SAR per month surviving
3500 SAR per month still surviving
5000 SAR per month living
7000 SAR per month living well
10000 SAR per month Living great.
these are expenses. think about how much do YOU want to spend and how much to YOU want to save. this will help decide whats good for you.
so now you know if you get what ever amount, what wil make you happy.

just scour throught he forums, since the living expenses and things have been discussed a lot in the past few months as well. I am sure that you will get all the info you need there.
If you want something that is not discussed here yet, then please post it up and then we will be sure to get back to you.
@salman- yup thats about right!
