Going out on date in Delhi? Cheer up, according to the 'Cheap dates' index from Deutsche Bank’s Mapping the World’s Prices 2017 report, the capital city is one of the cheapest places for a night out among the 47 cities in the index. 

In fact, Bengaluru and Mumbai figure at the bottom the list too (which is a good thing), both being more expensive than Delhi though. 

According to the index, on an average, a night out in Delhi will cost you a little over $44 (Rs 2,861.80 by current exchange rates). The same would cost you $46.7 (Rs 3,010.05) in Bengaluru and $50.7 (Rs 3,267.87) in Mumbai.

On the other hand, if you find yourself on a date in Zurich, Switzerland, then make sure you're willing to shell out the dough. Zurich topped the index, with a date costing an average $195.9. The same goes for any such plans in Oslo ($163.6), in Norway, and Tokyo ($163.0), in Japan.

The report defines a cheap date as: cab rides, dinner/lunch for two at a pub or diner, soft drinks, two movie tickets and a couple of beers.
