Don't go with cheap products in terms of quality. Buy any Logitech or Microsoft combo within your budget. My vote goes to Microsoft Wireless 800. If your brother is not gaming then opt for these wireless ones.

Get Logitech MK200 combo if you want wired ones. Stay away from brands like Genius/iball/techcom, horrible or no after sales support.

I recently bought Logitec MK270 wireless keyboard and mouse combo for Rs 1600/-
After so many online research I have decided for it for usability,simplicity,features and value for money.

1. wireless : just a tiny usb receiver for both kb and mouse
2. keyboard and mouse have ON-OFF switch
3. Keyboard has CAPSLOCK LED (difficult to find in budget wireless combos)
4. keyboard has basic multimedia and utility function buttons
5. Keyboard keys height are just perfect

If you buy cheap products you are bound to have PITA. They work so good. No tangling wires and a boon for lazy @ss. I have been using one for ages and never faced any issue.

I used to have a Microsoft Wireless Combo where my keyboard does not work well but my mouse used to work well.

The only issue with wireless KB/mouse is battery replacement pains and a laggy mouse when gaming.

Yea,play lost of games including online mmorpgs.
But,gaming and low budget are both opposite I guess. :(
Wireless is not suitable for gaming.
So,I thinking for wired one.
Mouse size should be medium not too big or too small.

I saw no cheap keyboard has palm rest.
Lenovo M6811 is good laser one but worst part price is more than double at FK and may not be available at Chandni,Kolkata.

never ever pay anything higher than rs 699. because the MRP written on the box i received was rs 699 and FK charged rs 725. i got refund of rs 26 after complaining. but those **** deleted my comment i posted for the mouse.

So,FK is not honest at all.
Sadly Amazon IN have to wait until FDI.

Selling price at higher price is not crime but price over MRP crime.
What's the meaning of MRP if item sold higher than that.

yup. i had asked them. they replied that they just act as abridge between seller and buyer. they have no relationship with the seller and told me that it is the seller which is fully responsible for this.
