What about the air quality? Also is the tap water drinkable?

Not OP , but born and raised in Bengaluru Air Quality - depends . Very bad while traveling. Residential areas much better.

Tap water , not drinkable as is. Most houses I've seen have a water filter. We personally used to use one of these[0]

I said India, didn't I? :)

Anyway, no. I don't think drinkable tap water is a developing or underdeveloped world phenomena. But I may be wrong.

Again, it depends on which country you are comparing it with. Among Indian cities - pretty good. And I don't mean comparing with Delhi - that'd be an unfair comparison.
