In my opinion it is not other then Chandigarh, capital of the state of Punjab and Haryana. Chandigarh is one of the most modern cities in India. Chandigarh, the first planned modern city of independent India was designed by the French architect Le Corbusier. The city is divided into 47 numbered sectors. It has well-laid roads lined with rows of trees and beautifully planned buildings. Visitors that are usually exoecting more of the meandering sprawls and historic skylines as with the most old Indian towns and cities are surprised to see the well planned layout of Chandigarh and its sleek buildings. This is because that the dity is almost 50 years old considering the age of the other cities present in India this city is an infant, so as to speak. The city comprises of a unique combination of old world and new modern world. As the city comprises of the new ultra mordern shopping complexes on one hand the city also have the road side vendors providing the ceapest closthes and the best bargains any one can possibly find.
Ironically, this new Indian city was born out of the partition of the country. A new capital city for the State of Punjab was required and Chandigarh was created to serve this purpose. This city symbolises the faith and confidence that the resurgent republic had.

This is a very relative question. So I can give you a relative answer. It depends where you want to live / stay. If you want to live in a big metropolitan city with a more or less good weather I would say Bangalore, or Hyderabad or even Pune. But these cities can be somewhat costly. Delhi has got extreme weather, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai do not generally have good weather. But cost of living in Calcutta is relatively less.Basically if you can adjust properly to a particular place wherever it is that will be the best place for you to live in ...in India.
If you are not interested in city life and want to live in a peaceful and pristine environment you can live in the northern states like in Uttaranchal or U.P. say for instance in Hardwar or Dharmashala.
