Cycling - Recommendations

I am looking for a cycle to buy in the 10-15K range.
I bought my wifey a Rockrider ST20 from decathlon, which I am using for now, but the thick tires make me feel like I am walking through sand.
Trying to check out hybrid options - The tough part is that the brands being pushed online (montra, Mach City, Firefox etc) vs Brands available on Ecom sites ( 91outdoors/Frog, OMO, etc) vs Brands available locally ( Schnell, Cradiac, Keysto etc) have zero overlap. Most online reviews tend to say the local brands are not that great, while the ones they recommend are not available online or local.

I am 5'10, looking for something easy to ride on dirty potholed local roads and can take some abuse, but at the same time require the least amount of effort to ride.
 
A hybrid and potholed roads don't go well together. I used to ride on pristine Chandigarh roads and still the hybrid nature made the experience jarring and uncomfortable. Have you tried finding narrower tyres for your current cycle.
