Galaxy S Advance if you are okay with single SIM. Decent specs; dual core A9; AMOLED display; but comes with GB only. JellyBean release in the works.
Galaxy S Duos if dual SIM is mandatory, although it comes with slightly outdated specs; but ICS out of the box.

The S Duos cant play 720p smoothly and cant record 720p either.
The S Advance allows both recording and smooth 720p playback. So if multimedia requirements include 720p playback then consider this too.

My friend had an S Duos.. He sold it because of the lag.. Get something else.. Try Htc for a change their phones are quite good..

There are lots of good phones selling in te market you shud get a good deal of 15-16k on a used s2 heck u can get a Note for 17-18k if you can extend your budget..If you want to buy new only than Galaxy S Advance would be my advise..

If you can wait for a week approx, you can get your hands on SII Plus.
Expected Price is around 18k but i am not sure.

Else go with S Advance

 

[Ankush]

Go for Galaxy S Advance ,It will be fulfilling all the needs you want and also in your budget price

The SII already retails in the mid-20s .. I dont think the S2 Plus will be any lower.

They are using a different ie. cheaper SoC in SII Plus same which is used in Grand and regarding price one of my dealer friend got a rough idea from samsung itself so that's why i said i am not sure.

Wait for few more days for it's launch
