Here're a few from my side. Inputs from several review sites (SPCR, Hexus, TPU) and price information from The IT Depot. Please feel free to edit them.
1.Case: Antec NSK 4400
Pros: Compact ATX cabinet, removable hard drive cage with rubber grommets, low price
Cons: No intake fan supplied, provision for only 80 mm intake fan, cable management is difficult
Price: Rs. 1350 approx.
Note - This is a perfect case but only suited for the most basic builds such as office systems and download rigs. Construction and build quality is good. I can personally vouch for it because we got a couple of these (before I switched over to the Lian Li but my roomie is still using one). I had managed to fit an ATX motherboard with a Thermalright 120 Ultra heatsink along with a lengthy 4870 GPU! The hard drive cage is removable which permits a lengthy card to be installed and a 120 mm fan can be DIY-screwed/zip-tied to the front metal panel. Unused power supply cables can be neatly tucked in above the DVD drive if the drive is mounted on the second slot from the top. In short, this case is a pure win for its price.

Pros: Compact ATX cabinet, straight 2.5†drive cage, support for 2 nos. 120/92/80 mm fans on the side panel, low price
