I need an AC of 1.5 Ton and a 5 Star rated one.

Checked these on flipkart.

Voltas 185Cya 1.5 Ton 5 Star Split AC Price in India - Buy Voltas 185Cya 1.5 Ton 5 Star Split AC online at Flipkart.com

Godrej GSC 18 FGA5 WOG 1.5 Ton 5 Star Split AC Price in India - Buy Godrej GSC 18 FGA5 WOG 1.5 Ton 5 Star Split AC online at Flipkart.com

Hitachi RAU518HVDOB 1.5 Ton 5 Star Split AC Price in India - Buy Hitachi RAU518HVDOB 1.5 Ton 5 Star Split AC online at Flipkart.com

I like the Godrej one since the installation is also free and and i get an extra 2500 off on the AC.
(i am planning to buy it on EMI so today flipkart also has an offer of cash back on the interest amount)

Please do suggest any other AC also if possible.

Also should i opt for inverter AC?? (i have heard they are future proof).

Thanx in advance...:)

If you are in Kolkata try to buy Sharp AC. They are certainly the best around and along that also do post the budget of the AC.

Budget could be anything from 30-38 as i'm planning to buy it on EMI wouldn't matter that much.

I stay in mumbai.
I have heard about sharp inverter AC's that they are good dont know a lot but.

coming from someone whose family business is ACs,please stick to Hitachi,Daikin,o-general as far as possible
they have least hassles and maintenance in the long run even if initial prices might be high
inverter ACs are worth the extra buck

Than check out O'General AC. These are meant to last long with little care.

ogeneral running for 10 years(approx) no service. no gas refilling, only blower(turbine thingy in idu) &filter cleaning...
but 1st installation must be PERFECT. once it goes wrong, problems will follow. make sure the installation tech is a pro and has knowledge. ask him questions during installation.

Yeah installation is super important and when I installed mine I make sure that it was done properly, had a bad experience earlier with my cousin's AC.

Godrej is OK at best
id still get a Hitachi,Daikin or O general over any other brand though
inverter isnt important if you dont have a high enough budget
a proper brand is more important imho

Get Daikin FTKP50PRV16 1.5 ton Inverter ac from flipkart at Rs 41K . Its an amazing deal.

The FTF50PRV16 the link that you have provided is actually a 5 star rated ac and not an inverter ac,flipkart has given wrong information, FTF are always 5 star rated while FTKP are inverters,so be careful and be informed.

DON'T BUY DAIKIN FROM FLIPKART. DAIKIN DOES NOT HONOR WARRANTY IF BOUGHT FROM ONLINE STORES.

Check reviews on Flipkart too, most people report that in the flipkart user review.

My bad. I guess this maybe a suggestion from the old folklores not by the doctors, about having the sugarcane juice.

They said that it is not hygienic any more coz of flies around it. Sometimes those flies get crushed and mixed up with the juice which is extremely dangerous.

Well this is the reason why my wife really hates the sugarcane juice sold by the road side vendors.
However in our city at selected places we have some shops who prepare it hygienically and added to that we get flavors as well.
Do look out for anything like that in your city.
If hygiene is a concern then this should work.
As a kid I know my cousin and my best friend used to get Jaundice very often and they used to have lots of sugarcane juice.

I am more of a car person. Whenever I go out it is 99% I am driving my car and finding these type of shops won't be a easy job.
