What’s the opionion of your wife? Will she be happy there? Do you have family members or friends already living there?
Otherwise: prepare for some difficult months after arrival until you have built up network of friends. However finding new friends should be doable as you have a little daughter. Going to the Kindergarten or public play grounds is a good opportunity to meet new people and to find new friends.
Be prepared for:
a) bad weather in the winter months.
b) high taxes + health insurance + social security payments.
c) (maybe) the requirement to downsize your life style. You can have a decent life on 75k. However ~10% of all Germans will earn more money than you.
Edit:
You want to enhance the quality of life by moving to another location. May I ask what’s your personal preferences regarding quality of life? What limits the quality of life in Bangalore?

Better infrastructure and government facilities for the tax paid (30% in Bangalore) 3. Free and good health care 4. Better career growth and opportunities in terms of moving to freelancing/consulting, attending conferences/meetups, working with international and bright minds 5. Less pollution 6. Less crime and relatively less corruption
