Some Jeans, t-shirts, light jackets and in winters you will need heavy jacket. As for electronics just remember the voltage difference .
hi Electrical appliances Old - check if it is 110v compatible if yes buy an adapter to plug in. new - buy mixie / grinder with 110 volts. dress - buy from branded shops otherwise possibility of shrinking due to heavy duty dryer is high. buy thick t-shirts for winter may be one size more than the normal size that u wear. buy formal and spots shoes. buy sneakers. in house slippers if you are planning to cook bring cooker, pans, kadai, vessels, ladles, spoons, tumblers and some food supplies for initial 10 days. whichever vessels u plan to use for heating make sure it is flat bottomed. things are v.expensive here + 13% tax no ideas about saska... watches, belts, sunglasses r must and they r costly. if u have any queries on any specific thing that you need to buy or not msg me
sindhu, This is my list. Cooker,kadai ,dosa tawa,and 2 more medium size vessels,garitelu,plastic spoons ,tupper ware food storage boxes,jeans,t-shirts,long winter jacket(it will come till knees), sweat shirts,Panties,B's,slips, Thermal wear(2 pairs),socks( 10 pairs),Gloves,branded moisturiser,sanitory pads Also, it will be super hot in summers.So bring cotton indian dresses,tops,cotton nighties/night dress Here i can see that clothes are bit costly.Better you get almost everything from india if possible. As srilatha said, bring a good pair of sunglasses and belts. Also you can bring some ready to eat food for first few weeks.If you are going to cook,then better get all the spices,which can last for a month.Later when you got used to this place,then you can buy things here. Annitikanna mundu mana pickles and podulu marchipovaddu.These will be very useful in the intial days. Hmm if you wear bindi,then get lots of them and also liquid eye liners.you can use them as bindis too. India lo 5rs ki vache sticker packet,ikkada 100 rs ki konnadi maa friend papam. Have a safe journey
