Yes, a budget of ₹50 - 60 lakhs is typically enough to cover both tuition fees and living expenses for a master's program in Australia or the US.

- Australia: Annual tuition usually ranges from AUD 32,000 - 50,000, with living expenses recommended at AUD 24,505/year (subject to change).
- United States: Tuition at public universities is generally USD 25,000 - 35,000/year, and private universities USD 40,000 - 60,000/year. Living expenses are usually USD 12,000 - 20,000/year (subject to change).

Your budget should be sufficient for most master's programs in both countries. If you need a detailed estimate for your specific course or university, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
