A Delhi Bar Bill From 2007 Has Sparked An Online Debate On Inflation And Affordability
A person preserved a bar bill from 2007 and a photo of the same is now fueling a debate about inflation. A Reddit user shared the old receipt, prompting discussions on how affordable dining out was back then and reflecting on the rise in prices across India. The bill, totalling ₹2,522 from a restaurant called The Supper Factory, offers a nostalgic glimpse into a time when eating out was much cheaper. Among the ten items listed, one dish was priced as low as ₹180. The post's caption read, “Found 2 bills from 2007 bar visits in Delhi. Man I can't belive prices of food and alcohol has jumped up since so much.”
Throwing party in 2007 was pocket friendly.

Soon, reactions began pouring in – some marvelled at how much ₹2,500 could get you back in 2007, while others pointed out that even then, it wasn't as "pocket-friendly" as claimed.
One user mentioned, “18 saal pehle 2500 were not that much pocket-friendly bhai" (18 years ago, 2,500 wasn't that affordable, man).

In reply to this, another user elaborated, “Exactly, in 2007, this amount is equal to approximately 3 gram gold which in today's rate is approximately 20k, so it was never cheaper. “

“Oh, believe me, that was nowhere near ‘pocket friendly' back in 2007. That was an entire month's rent for an independent one-room apartment,” read another.
