It depends upon how remote the region is. Normally homestays charge 200–300 rs for a single room per day. If you are staying for a month you could negotiate with the homestay owner and the cost would be ~ 1000. Room rent and food costs depend upon how frequently a place is visited by travelers and how far it is from cities and towns. On average, it would cost around 1500–2000 per month ( including lodging and food ).
