I too need some suggestions for a tablet upto 8k so posting in this thread. My focus is not on gaming though.

My requirements are pretty basic: its going to be mostly used for browsing, reading e-books and online videos. I'd prefer something with a good screen that doesn't lag, decent sound and with a good battery life. Good after-sales support would be nice(I hear most of the budget tablets have really bad after-sales service and the tablet dies around a month or two of use).

Brand or config is not a problem as long as it fulfills the above.

Acer Iconia B1-A71 Tablet - Acer: Flipkart.com

Coming soon, its from a reputed company and has Dual Core A9 CPU and SGX531, while it might be slower than some cheap dual core chinese tabs but it has good reputation.

A good suggestion from tkin.
But you could also have a look at KARBONN Tabs,particularly the Karbonn Smart Tab 8(Admittedly,running on Dual Core ARM Cortex-A9 with a Chinese chipset;but who else does not run now???) with 8-inch screen,and 1GB RAM,which is a big + point.
Have a look here Karbonn Smart Tab 8 Tablet - Karbonn: Flipkart.com

If you can stretch your budget by 2k, you can also consider the Asus Memo Pad ME172V for Rs.9,999 that has been launched in India today.

Specs. wise it is not so better when compared to the acer or Karbonn Tabs as mentioned above...moreover Single Core processor.
