That is a fortune for you! You can live a fantastic life as a professional! Being a foreigner, you can rent a good house around Rs. 50,000 and all other luxuries can be done within another 100,000/- And rest of other money will go to your bank :D
But buying a vehicle is bit expensive in Sri Lanka as the tax is very high.

Even with a Rs. 100,000 per month, if you will carefully manage your money, (like using public transportation) you can run a good simple life.

Welcome in Sri Lanka!

comparison on cost and quality can be done only by a Bangaloree expat in Sri Lanka. But we can give info only about the cost and quality :)
With Lankan Rs 400,000/- per month you can live a very luxury life and save a lot of money! I think that is enough for you :)
