{June 28, 2007}   Commodity Rates in Bangalore

Rentals going high due to people from software industry here in Bangalore (Bangaluru)

Real Estate price hike is known open robbery from IT guys by brokers / whoever it is and it’s not only Flats / Real Estate, IT guys undergo open robbery from all rich shop owners / a person who wanted to become rich as fast as possible…

The salary whatever we get, it’s our hard-earned money, most of the times sitting in the night, away from family functions, friends, etc…But all our money or most of the money are going to someone who just takes advantage of our stressful life (both mentally and physically) and our new western life style.

I do not find anything wrong in having a US / UK life style, but many open thieves (starting from Ministers to our local Restaurant owner) just swindling all our “legal money” and as we do not have any other choice becoming poor / debtor day by day.

Well most of the price hikes are just unbelievable and there is absolutely no justification (few examples given below).

Chicken Biriyani (Karaikudi 3 weeks back) – Rs. 65

Today (since last 2 weeks) same Karaikudi Chicken Biriyani (believe me, there is absolutely no change) – Rs. 78, there is no justification for such a big increase.

Pop Corn (Sathyam Complex) previously (month and half back) – Rs. 20

Today (almost the same quantity) – Rs. 30 (again, I do not find any justification)

Corn in Garuda Mall previously (month back) – Rs20 Small, Rs 30 Medium and Rs 40 High

Now, No “actual” small and real small has become 35 now and 45 for high… [Are they the farmers who have given their blood to grow this?]

(In Sathyam complex, many price hikes are really too much for no reason…)

Chips packet (Gangotree) previously (three months back) – Rs. 15

Since last two Months the same packet costs – Rs. 20 (again, I do not find any justification)

Room Clean (just once) – Rs. 200, that’s because they cleaned IT guys room.

(The moment you say that you are from Software Company, the price automatically increases…)

We guys already pays big taxes from our salaries and goes on paying other taxes too (starting from Hotel Sangeetha “Vadai” to Scotch in a bar), it’s time to think and pledge ourselves that we stop spending just for one month…

Reason(s) why we should stop spending atleast for a month:

1. 70% of the IT guys occupy the restaurants.

2. 80-90% of the IT guys go to coffee shop, hang around places, bakeries, etc.

3. Most of the IT guys go to Sathyam complex, Movies

If we stop going / spending just for a month, their business automatically goes down and they would have no other choice except to bring down the price, that’s what happened when IT industry was down three years back.

Somehow directly or indirectly we are responsible for this unjust price hike and now, only we could prevent this open robberies, please add your comments or experiences and keep forwarding this email to all your known people, I am sure even if 25% of us realizes and acts accordingly, it could and would make lot of difference to us.

(Let’s try and prevent unjust price hike)

Save the IT People from Debts

* Property market in Year 2001 -2004 was quiet Ok; People were able to buy Flats in reasonable rates.
