VPS exit node as Home Network bandwidth usage
I'm facing per day 50GB of data used from my home network for simple chrome browser running for 24/7 interacting with one application that doesn't have much size in data. For VPS that are being connected through home network as exit node will use high bandwidth and please help me to reduce that

So your using a VPS as a VPN for your home network?
And your VPS is showing your using 50GB of bandwidth a day?
If yes to both those questions. Any data that you ask Lets say going to Youtube.com it has to do the following. Youtube -> VPS (IN) -> VPS(OUT) -> Your Home.
In this case you are doubling your usage.
At lease that's my understanding of your setup.
I don't use VPS as exit node, I'm using home network as exit node for vps.
Still same concept applies.
Have you tried to turn it off and keep that way?
You didn't provide any important information that could be used for useful advice.
The description of your setup is not very clear. In any case, are you using some sort of remote desktop or X11 forwarding to connect to the chrome browser? If so, then the transferring of the display data will result in additional bandwidth usage.
yep it's using Display with VNC. I have created another user on router with speed of 1MBPS so that it can use only less than 10GB of data per day from my home router 😁
