You should be more specific about what screen size you're looking at, dual-sim option etc..
Although Xperia SP is a good choice in your budget have a look at Samsung S4 mini, Grand 2 & Xperia ZR too. They are almost in your budget.[DOUBLEPOST=1404708896][/DOUBLEPOST]

10. Any other requirements?
A: GRAPHIC CARD

 

[teliakshay]

graphic card: adreno 305 or 320
screen size: more than 4.5 inch

Dual sim phone is not an issue... i am a single sim user ... but if its dual sim then also no problem

You could strech your budget just a bit more and get the Sony ZR. A friend got it for 21K with EMI. Goes for 19-20K online.

wait till july 15 .
Go for xiomi Mi3 , 15k
Same specs as LG G2, But of course refrain if you are worried about after sales service and support
http://www.mi.com/in/

SD 800 SOC
2GB Ram
16 GB Onboard
3000 maH Cell
13mp/2mp camera

I am myself going to get one....

wait till july 15 .
Go for xiomo Mi3 , 15k

Can you please quote your sources for the price of MI3. Seriously, if MI3 is made available at 15k, nothing can come close IMHO. After sales be damned......

Get the Sony Xperia ZR. it would cost you around 19k in Flipkart. It is pretty good phone and is water proof. Camera is pretty good, though the front camera is of a lower resolution.
I would have got it myself, but I am more inclined towards Lumia 925.[DOUBLEPOST=1404811131][/DOUBLEPOST]

For Xiomi this is the link http://www.mi.com/in/. It is as good as LG G2 in terms of specs not G3

 

[teliakshay]

what about the asus zenfone 6

 

[GreenJay]

Xiomi beats Asus in terms of specs, unless you are looking for a phablet

 

[vyral_143]

IMO, Your options, around your budget, are;

Moto X - with offer of Rs.2000/4000
Sony Xperia ZR
LG G2 - imported
