Can I afford a Samsung Galaxy M06 5G on my salary?

A Samsung Galaxy M06 5G at ₹9,499 works out to ₹712 a month over twelve months with 10% down on a no-cost EMI. For that to sit comfortably — under 4% of take-home, and under one month's salary in price — you want a net income of about ₹17,811 a month. At ₹11,874 it is manageable rather than comfortable.

Questions people ask
What salary do I need for a Samsung Galaxy M06 5G?
About ₹17,811 net a month for it to be a comfortable purchase, and around ₹11,874 for it to be manageable. Two things set that: the instalment against your take-home, and the price of the phone against a month of your salary. A long tenure fixes the first and not the second.
What is the EMI on a Samsung Galaxy M06 5G?
₹712 a month over twelve months at 10% down with no-cost EMI, financing ₹8,549 after a ₹950 down payment. Over six months it is ₹1,425; over twenty-four it drops to ₹356, though that is longer than many people keep a phone.
Is the Samsung Galaxy M06 5G worth it?
That is a judgement we will not make for you. What we can say is what it costs: ₹9,499 up front or ₹712 a month for a year, on a handset with 50 MP, a 5000 mAh battery and a 6.7" 90Hz screen. If that instalment is more than 4% of your take-home, the phone is asking for room your budget may not have.
