The timing and cost usually depends after taking complete records which are photos, x rays and impressions. After the orthodontist analysis this and comes to a diagnosis he can specify the timing of treatment.
I can only give a range.
To answer your questions.
1) For a non extraction case it takes roughly one year. If extraction of teeth are required to gain space it take 1yr 6m to 2yr
2) u will be given a set of instructions of what to eat and how to clean. Every 4 to 6 weeks u need to visit the orthodontist for tightening. U can travel as long as you can keep up the appointment every month for the treatment to finish in the specified time frame.
3) cost of metal brackets 30k to 35k
Ceramic brackets 40k to 50k
Clear aligners 1.5L to 2 L.
There is also a separate cost for retainers which is given after treatment ends to hold your teeth in position
