If you want a good LCD specially from Samsung then it will cost you above 25k and under or around 30k depending on the model you buy
HD Ready = 720p
Full HD = 1080p
All DTH operators are airing HD channels and the number of HD channels are going to rise, so it is better to go for Full HD TV rather than going for HD ready TV. Please try to understand, even after buying Full HD television, if you are not subscribing to HD cable operator then your viewing experience remains back to square one. If you are having HD ready TV with HD DTH service then your TV will downscale everything to 720p and then no pleasure. So it is better to go for Full HD television. These days Full HD is the defacto standard, go for it. I think you should know the difference between TN nematic and IPS panels then i think you will be able to choose the best one. Take your own time in choosing the best one.
Nope,
it depends on source signal if source is HD then you will enjoy HD but to some extent it is possible some LCD comes with upscaling chip which can convert non HD to HD.
One such T.V is Philips 32 Inches Full HD LCD 32PFL6506 Television this is full HD and can convert non HD to HD.

AFAIK,there is no real HD(1920x1080) channel available currently in India.
So,even HD Ready TV(720P or 1366X768) is sufficient for today's HD channels in India.....
@minion- thanks for the info! my dad seems to like that one . are there any other such tv's? maybe at 22k approx?
and also guys is't there some formula to calculate the size of the tv to buy ,based on the distance we watch from?? anyone know that?
Yes there is....But one can just do that on his own seeing the size of the room where one wants to place the tv.
