it doesn't matter. a tri band phone will work almost anywhere in the world except the americas, where they use an additional 850mhz band also!

Dekh dost ye hui na baat .. lets see... there are many things that you can ask,
depends what u want .. in gadgets .. you can get PSP cheap from there, IPOD 30Gb Video, and mobile main W810i.. yahan 15.5k so may be there yu can get cheap comparing might be under 13K, PSP or IPOD video u can get along with it .. Just tell ur dad .. to check for any scheme or discounts going on.
