> Hearing aids typically cost anywhere from ₹ 50,000 to upwards of ₹ 8L depending on the correction capability

For those who don't recognize the ₹ symbol it is the symbol for the Indian Rupee and an "L" after a number means 100,000, so ₹ 8L is ₹ 800,000.

At current exchange rates that puts hearing aids in India from $600 to upwards of $9,500.

AirPods Pro 2 are ₹ 24,900 ($295).
