I am in a Hurry (Will buy this week) - Sorry about that - Please Give me your valuable advice & opinions.

1) What is your budget? (INR or USD)

~30,000
Can Stretch to
Max 33000

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?

Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen
Desktop Replacement; 17"+ screen

3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?

Almost Anything
Except Playing High Graphics Games (Although it would be sweet to have it too , but at this price range its a bit too much to ask)

5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?

Intel 5th Generation OR AMD Kaveri A10 OR AMD Carrizo

Must:
1 TB HDD
Ram: 8GB (If Possible) Else Less
Discrete GPU - Atleast 2 GB (NVidia OR AMD)
USB 3.0

4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
a. Like:ASUS , ACER , DELL
b. Dislike:HP (But if its the ONLY choice in this Range then i have to buy it)

5) Anything else you would like to say?

Screen resolution ( 768p (HD) / 900p / 1080p (Full HD) ) - Full HD if Possible else Any [At this Price Anything Decent is good]

Battery back up ( normal (3-4hrs) / extended (5-7hrs) ) - More the Better

Purchase place - Online (eg - flipkart, snapdeal , amazon.in , infibeam) (Even Unpopular sites - MDComputers , primeabgb)
& Local (Preferred)

better confirm the specs for the acer one if it really comes with r7 m265, see some reviews. a good buy if it does.
showroom price seem to be more than online price from where i live(for the asus one which i recommended), check your local retailers.

Asus X555 notebooks launched in India starting at Rs. 28999
and many other sites tells that its price is 28999
but i haven't found that price any where.

How is it ?

avoid HP,Acer,LG etc
Stick to Dell,Lenovo,Asus
they have great quality, good after sales, parts are also cheap and easily available

As far as i searched , i didnt find any good models from dell , lenovo
i found a asus model but its availability is an issue

and until now Acer e5 551g gave the best bang for the buck unless you have a better one in mind within 34k:-?

Please let me know.

There are options as mentioned earlier but youll either have to up your budget or reduce your requirements a bit
imho its not worth risking it for a bit more specs
