Actually a large part of rural India still uses 60/100W light bulbs (filament ones) instead of LEDs as they are much cheaper(1/15th). I took 75W ceiling fans + 100W for the bulbs ~ (75W20hrs + 60W10hrs)*3rooms. I agree this is still on the higher side as all fans won't be running all the time and would be zero during winters (~3 months).
