Budget 4k TV with 4:4:4 croma

1. Budget? 25-60k (prefer less than 40k)
2. Display size? 40-55 inch (1st preference 42-43 inch)
3. What will the TV/monitor be used for primarily? PC monitor

Since primary use is as laptop(PC) monitor, it needs to support 4:4:4 chroma(no compromise on this since will have lot of text work and browsing and no gaming).
Screen type can be anything(IPS might be good)

Bought Samsung 42NU7100 (42 inch) 4k TV. It supports 4k 60 Hz 4:4:4 chroma (Samsung NU7100 Review (UN40NU7100, UN43NU7100, UN50NU7100, UN55NU7100, UN58NU7100, UN65NU7100, UN75NU7100))

How much and from where??

From Croma Showroom. Rs 46000.
Since it is not IPS panel, the viewing angle is decreased now(previously had IPS panel). For me it is not a big issue but noticed it while entering the room with the tv on.

It takes some time to adjust to the 4k resolution as a monitor. Needed to increase the text size in windows(simple enough since only one setting to change). But with Linux many settings needed to be changed to make fonts visible(and still not perfect).

Will probably suggest 55 inch 4k screen for monitors.
