Yes, a budget of around ₹20 lakhs (approx. €24,000) is generally sufficient for studying in Germany or Italy, and may be enough for the Netherlands with careful planning.

- Germany: Most public universities have no tuition fees. Living costs and semester fees total about €14,500 - €15,500/year (subject to change).
- Italy: Tuition is typically €850 - €1,000/year, with total annual costs around €10,000 - €12,000.
- Netherlands: Tuition for non-EU students is higher (€6,000 - €20,000/year), so yearly expenses can reach €18,000 - €25,000.

Germany and Italy fit well within your budget. The Netherlands could be more expensive, but scholarships and part-time work may help. For personalized planning, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
