You have a perfect budget to with the Holy Grail of Android device, the Nexus 4. Although Nexus 5 is around the corner (may get release in a month), but Nexus 4 is still the best phone out there for around 24k.

HTC Desire 600 is nothing in front of Xperia ZR, ZL , Optimus G, Nexus 4.............

My suggestion, get Xperia ZR or ZL
Check if u can use the 5" ZL (I'm not comfortable with it), actually it varies person to person. If u feel ZL is too big then get ZR.
Also ZR is waterproof, which means you can use it even when its raining, no need to woory about your phone getting wet......

Other note worthy points:
- ZR has better battery life, maybe one of the best in that segment
- ZL has better front cam(2MP FHD), whereas ZR has only a VGA one(which is found in 16k phones)
- Performance of both are same due to same chipset & 2GB RAM
- Rear camera of both are also similar
- ZL has better screen

Xperia ZL or LG optimus G (dont even look at others).

Both have same CPU and GPU. Optimus G has non-expandable 32 GB memory where ZL has expandable 16 GB memory. and LG has removable battery which ZL lacks. You wont go wrong with either one of them =)
