This has plunged me into some ‘Sunday reminiscing.’ I was in JJ college at that time. Used to go by bus, but my mother occasionally allowed me to drive her blue Fiat. Even I can hardly believe this is what it cost at that time! pic.twitter.com/jtppIXvFtI

Anand Mahindra was shocked
and wrote in his tweet, “This has immersed me in ‘Sunday memories’. I was in JJ college at that time. Used to go by bus, but my mother sometimes gave me her blue Fiat car. Allowed to run. Although I can hardly believe that it cost so much at the time.”
People still found it expensive
Commenting on the post, a user wrote, “In 1972 my father bought an ambassador car for Rs 18000 on road.” Another user said, “It’s expensive.” At the same time, other users expressed concern over the falling value of the rupee in India. One user wrote, “I can see how the currency has depreciated over time. Today in 15,000, you get two car tyres. But the same 15,000 if kept in gold, would have got you a car.” .”
