The situation between download and upload speeds isn’t likely to be much different, these days.
Speed tests (e.g. https://www.speedtest.net/) may let you choose a location to measure to. If I measure with https://www.speedtest.net/ to Planet Networks, Inc. in Newark, NJ, USA, it slowly climbs to 87Mbps/56Mbps. Trouble is, at greater distances these numbers are basically always unrealistic—you can’t actually reach them in normal usage.
Various hosts give you big files you can download to test them, which is often a more realistic measurement of what you’ll experience on the web at large. https://nj-us-ping.vultr.com/vultr.com.100MB.bin, for example, is from roughly the same geographical place, and downloading it in Firefox or curl only really reaches 1–1.3Mbps and would take 11–12 minutes. Whereas https://bom-in-ping.vultr.com/vultr.com.100MB.bin (Mumbai; I’m in Hyderabad) happily saturates my 100Mbps link and completes in nine seconds.
