Luxury lifestyle prices slip: Julius Baer index
Mumbai is the least expensive city for 7 items, while the costliest one is Shanghai.
PRICES of goods and services that the wealthy are likely to buy lost some ground in 2015/2016, and weaker Asian currencies may well dampen appetite.

Singapore is the second most expensive city, followed by Hong Kong.
