You won't be getting any Gigabyte board that easily. Flipkart have 2 of them in their stock, but I shoudl warn you that you may face problem during RMA due to lack of new boards at that time.
As you are using non-K processor, I should tell you that you don't need Z77 chipset based board.
Any H67 or H77 board will go the work.
One of the very reliable choice is:
IntelDH67-CL @5.5K
As your budget is 10K, I would like to suggest you another better board:
Asus P8H77-V @9.6K

d6bmg : Thanks for your advice, but will the Asus board support 3rd gen processor. I'm not really clear.

Yes, all the boards I've posted in my previous post, will support all the 3rd Gen i3/i5/i7 processors. :)

About your query for only Asus: H77 chipset is made for 3rd Gen processors.
