Answer 1

Depending on whether  you're going for sharing accomodation or if you're going to rent a flat of your own. Flats are very expensive nowadays. For a studio flat, you will need to pay around a minumum of 40,000  to 55,000 AED per annum.  Plus of course, you have to consider the electric and water bills, food, transportation and so on.

So really the money you'll be able to save is up to your standard of living.

Good Luck and welcome to the UAE.

Answer 2

If you are already earning Rs.70k (take home salary) or upwards then it may not be worth going to UAE. Otherwise it is a decent offer. Etisalat is a good company to work for.
