The average monthly wage in India is about $300.

I just checked and MRI scans in Ireland are about 300eur, while the average monthly wage is about 3300eur.

I know average monthly wage isn't the most robust of measures, but still, looks to me like MRIs are pretty expensive in India relative to people's ability to pay for them.

OP likely shared the price at a major metro. The per capita income in metros is a lot higher. Bangalore, iirc, is $8k.

Still only about $600-700 per year making an MRI scan relatively more expensive than in Ireland.
