TBH i dont think this is the case for many.
Like i grew up NRI for a significant part of my childhood and most of the NRI people i know, who worked in Europe/middle east had no intention of ever migrating to the US/Europe/Canada even when they got their kids as citizens there.
They all seem to prefer the whole ' i retire in India, travel to the west if/when i wanna see the kids or kids come to us regularly' etc lifetstyle. mostly because they aint facking stupid and know that retired life in India if u got cash is 100x better than retired life in the west if u got cash.

As long as you don’t live in those gas chambers you call cities in India. Surest way to shorten your lifespan by a decade or 15 years.

greying in 30s and heart attacks in 40s are common these days.
with medical care in non-metros/major B-towns being iffy, getting out of the "gas chambers" as you call it will be difficult choice for many urbanites with accumulated illnesses over their working years.

gas chambers of indian cities dont bother most of the retired oldie nri moneybags.
Coz rule number 1 of retired indian oldies is they aint active outdoors people or shoppers, they are basically stay at home or go to other people's homes kind of people and they mostly go Ac to Ac with filtration and get ghanta gas chamber effect. I was in Kolkata for a year in 2023 and it wasnt that bad to be honest if i didnt go out for extended periods, aka commute. Which oldies never do and very rarely do at rush hour for our moneybags.
Remember, they mostly live in outskirts in those fancy big town complexes where transit patterns are far easier if u have car.
I know this, because this is basically what my parent's circle is.

No way for me to live like that. Not my lifestyle. It looks like I have to find another place to retire if India cannot clean up her air around the cities.

You can live in a town or village in the countryside.
Also not every city is like Delhi and the other NCR cities in terms of the gas chamber effect

You have very less option to settle after retirement will probably recommend haridwar/roorkee
