Basic questions:

* What's your Budget? Between 20k and 27k.

* What will be your primary usage for the notebook be? I am getting inclined towards Photography, so the laptop should be able to run the Lightroom and Photoshop smoothly, other than that it would be used for normal home usage.

* What size and weight considerations do you have? Looking for 15.6 inch. Weight is not a problem since it would be used primarily at home.

* Any brand that you prefer, or any brand that you detest? NA.

* Any other considerations?
Currently I am using Acer Aspire 5920 which is about 4 years old and obviously does not work smoothly with lightroom or photoshop.

Must have requirements:
1. Size above >15".
2. RAM should be 4GB or more.
3. Hard Disk size should be maximum, looking for 750GB or 1TB.
4. DOS or no OS required since I have licence copy of both Win 7 and 8.
5. Processor: Probably, i3, 2nd or 3rd gen will fit in my budget, I really dont know exact practical difference in performance between i3 2nd gen and 3rd gen. If that doesnt make much difference, I am open to 2nd gen also. Also, I am open to AMD processor also though I have never used it personally.

I am looking forward to use the laptop for next 3-4 years.

I am planning to buy it in the gosf.in. Hope that I will find a good deal with all your help :)
Looking forward to your suggestions.
 
If you want good built quality laptop that will last 3-4 years then you need to increase your budget. Even if you got the laptop with your requirement it will not have the good build quality.
 
If you want to run Lightroom & PS I would suggest getting a Laptop with Glossy display.

Anti Glare/Matte displays have terrible contrast & color saturation and your photos will end up getting ruined during Post Processing.
