Bro,

If you like Sony Laptops then I would advise to go for Sony Vaio VPCEH35EN Model.
Its available in two colours (Black-White) @ FlipKart.
The Black Model will cost you few hundred's less.
Link :- Sony VAIO E Series VPCEH35EN Laptop: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Sony Notebook

White Model :- Sony VAIO E Series VPCEH35EN Laptop: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Sony Notebook

Performance wise the laptop is awesome.
Battery backup is good 3-3.5Hrs easily at low brightness level.
