32" LED monitor is not available in India as said by tineshsg
So you can go for Samsung 5 series LED 32D5900 for around 40k.This is the best LED TV.

Go for TV anyway even if monitor is available. If you go for monitor, you have to go for a HD TV tuner card and speaker systems. And the hassle of plugging them to multiple ports and switching them all.
and ultimately cost will be same.

32" LED monitor + HD TV tuner card + speaker system >= 32" TV

Monitors are more costly than tv's if you compare them of same size and if you are looking forward to watch tv, play movies from your pc or even play games on monitor above 24inch then you you have to deal with above 2k+ resolutions. Its better to stick with tv if you dont want to go above 1920x1080p. But good quality hd tvs dont come below 60k even for 32inch.

I have 22 inch AOC LED Monitor with HDMI & inbuit speaker, which has SRS WOW HD! technology. So you can easily use it as a TV with HD SET TOP BOX. This monitor also include one HDMI cble, one VGA cable

Why HD TV Tuner Card if I have HD Set-top box....... As I already connect my 24" LG Monitor with HD set-top box it works fine and I only need to buy a sound system which is for 3000/- (5.1)

ok if you find 32" led monitor buy it or compromise with 24" monitor

and if you don't want to compromise purchase led tv (full of inputs, inbuild sound and HD media player)

LED monitors ie led back light models are much cheaper than the LED back light tv also Full LED tv would cost you more than 40K..

Better go for a led backlight moniotr [either 22 or 24-this is the perfect screen size for a monitor ] now,

later if ur not fully satisfied with monitor buy a full led tv [it may be under 30K during that time i guess]
