you may get this:

AOC 21.5 inch LED - E2243FW2K Monitor: Flipkart.com

a forum-member named CyberKID is using this monitor currently and had got it for a little more than 8.6k at costtocost, nehru place, new delhi. if you can extend your budget slightly, it would be good.

@ GhorMaanas I am unable to send you message , receiving this -"has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space."

Ok, regarding the query, i will recommend the Samsung S22B370 monitor. Yes i have purchased Samsung S22B370H and i am really happy with it. Although it has only HDMI port and VGA, i needed HDMI port only to connect with my graphics card and the output is brilliant. The response time is only 2ms which makes it even better. It has the different angles viewing technology and also a green saving feature which adjusts brightness and saves electricity. It got it for Rs. 8500 from Nehru Place, Delhi. Overall i am satisfied with it and will recommend it to you too. I could have gone for AOC but i couldn't trust that brand and that is why i had gone for the more popular and successful Samsung. :D .

Hope i have answered your queries. If You have any more questions, you can freely ask me.

I think most of the 22 inchers are in the price band of 8-8.5k so you should have quite a few options. Try scouting.

Thanks for ur replies guys!
I have checked local market recently.
Only found AOC i2251Fwe which is only under 8K.
But input lag is 14ms.
Though AOC e2243Fw2k is also near and heard LG IPS225V also near 9K from some other source but could not found in local market.

oho! how many times will i have to keep deleting the messages :duh2:
thanks a lot for the alert :)

that was really an elaborate information! i have suggested the same to my friend. he's now torn apart between size (wants 23"/24") and this. the 23" AOC monitor he had shown the link of to me had RT of 5ms, whereas samsung one is almost perfect for him albeit the size is a bit small. anyway, i'll talk to him & then arrive at some conclusion. thanks a lot again!

Someone told me at other thread that LG IPS236V 23" IPS(guess old S-IPS panel) available @9K.
When I was searing for review found(tomshardware) the input lag gone up to 40ms for this monitor.
Official web of monitor brand always lie about spec I guess ?
AOC i2251Fwe showing 14ms then hat it gonna its input lag ?.....:shock:
Only way to find by checking Demo side by side ?
But,no shop gonna do that I guess

AOC is OK but I can't spend 11K for 23" AOC panel.
Don't know about Dell U2212HM 21.5" IPS.
May be have to wait for Dell S Series IPS.
Saw at international web that price starts from $150.
Any idea about price in India ?
