Will she need touchscreen??

Buy this *www.flipkart.com/hp-pavilion-g4-13...ptop&ref=de0ef7fd-e0dc-41a5-bb40-5caff531e86e

And don't waste more money on expensive laptop when your requirement is just opening office documents. Just remember to install windows on it as it doesn't come with it and you are good to go.
Also you are not going to get hd/fhd screen under 30k bracket

Will not be in budget. Also I don't think it would be needed.

Thank you will surely consider it. Windows is not a problem but how is APU Dual Core A4?

And any other suggestion costlier than this with better specs? (around 26-27k)
