An Indore-based Reddit user claimed his maid's family earns ₹1.25-1.35 lakh/month tax-free, while paying ₹6,000/month rent and getting free government ration while owning a village home under some government scheme. "It does make you wonder, who really belong to middle-class now?" he said. "Will you be happy with life your maid is living," a user replied. "Mindset issue," said another.
