Mangalore.
I tried the place where I bought it from - Allied Electronic's then I went to my known computer shop , they ordered the official Z510 keyboard, and it did not support it.

ugh, they can't even provide proper parts now, and we are here suggesting the majority to go with lenovo. Time to shoot their top management a mail regarding this.

The problem started last December, with my touchpad not working.Google the issue, and found out its a driver problem. Then in April,the battery was f**ked and it took 1 month to get it replaced, and soon I noticed that whenever the touchpad wasn't working, there was a full volume sound icon, and turning off the sound solved the problem for a while.Then, When I went to win 10, the problem never occurred for a week,and thought the driver is fixed.
Anyway then everything went down, and even the keyboard stopped working.

How much can you sell it for, this budget is actually low for a decent mid range laptop. Any plans to increase it?

It depends on what I can get.
So what are good laptops in this range?

^Go for that, looks nice

However, ASUS support will be trashier than Lenovo.

No other laptop with 950M under 50k. Lenovo is loosing the edge in terms of specifications and how their prices have gone up for no reason.

Current lenovo laptops aren't built to last it seems

My Y500's LAN port is not working, 3.5mm jack is giving problems, screen's hinge is in a bad shape & also the thread of a screwing point wore off n the screw fell off somewhere(no use in putting a new screw)

A friend of mine has Y50 & his laptop's hinge broke, when it was just 6 months old & another friend's Y50's camera malfunctioned

A 2.5 yr old Z500's screen just stopped working

So, I personally avoid suggesting Lenovo to anyone now, I won't even suggest Y50 even if it gets updated display.

This might be the best performance oriented laptop under 50k

If OP is interested in having a genuine Windows & 1080p FHD screen, there is an HP laptop, but it has i5 ULV + 940M

I have seen this laptop for as low as 47k

These people haven't yet refreshed their laptop line-up. I was waiting for IFA to see the new product line but nope there is nothing and apart from that there is still no word on that 960 based laptop which will provide desktop grade performance.
