Here is my problem my blog is hosted in WP.com. Following are my stats

Nov - 2 K,  Dec - 29 K,  Jan - 51 K,  Feb - 168 K, March - 96K, I do expect another 40k views this month.

Nearly 50% of the views are from Mobile. Viewers are mostly Public Sector Bank Employees.  Each post is attracting nearly 20 to 30 K views. They do visit for a specific information read the post and leave. 

I understand that with Adsense they have to click the ad's.  But I doubt that my viewers will do that because my viewers are limited and they do revisit my blog whenever there is a post, so I have applied for wordads(they do pay for CPM) and the same is yet to be approved. But recently one of my friend blogger has offered me his Adsense code ( he requested for a 50% ) and advised me to shift to WP.org.  

With 100 k views per month which is better.  Further how much it will cost me if I shift to WP.org sometimes my posts attracts 10K views per hour I don't know how much I have to pay for hosting charges for it.

With the above information which one is better wordads or adsense.

Why don't you apply for adsense. Then, you will have 100% of the earnings with you only. No need to give 50% to someone else. Wink

And with 1 lakh views per month, I think a starting level hosting package which costs around 10$ per month will be sufficient.

What will be the CTR for regular viewers. What will be the approx income from adsense for 1 lakh views per month. ( 50% views are from Mobile )

Search on google for 'adsense cpm' and 'adsense ctr'. You will find some posts that give you an idea of how much you can earn.

If your site/blog has good numbers of quality posts and getting enough organic traffic daily then Google will approve your Adsense a/c without any issue. So, try it for Adsense only. Make sure, your site has author's / webmaster's profile which many sites lack of it and directly rejected application by Google. All the best.
