Yes, one can study in Germany without IELTS also. If your bachelor's degree was taught in English and you have a Medium of Instruction (MOI) letter from your previous university many German universities and missions accept it in place of IELTS or TOEFL. However, some universities may still require a formal language test. Check the requirements of your specific university.

Indian students need a Germany blocked account balance of EUR 11,904 (INR 13.25 Lakhs) for 1 year or EUR 992 (INR 1.1 Lakhs) per month. The amount is set by German govt. to make sure Indian students have enough to cover costs like rent, food, and healthcare.
ICICI, Expatrio, and Studely are some popular banks for Indian students to open a blocked account with.
1 EUR = INR 111.34
