1) What is your budget?
Rs 25000 or less

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
(a) Screen size: 15"
(b) Good build quality

3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?
This laptop will only be used for the following:
a) Normal browsing (youtube, blogpost etc)
b) Document editing (MSword, Excel etc)
c) Video conversion, image compression (occasionally)
d) Watching movies


5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
Preferably Core-i3 or any processor which can handle the tasks listed above.
Not a sluggish processor though

4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
Reputed brands only

6) Anything else you would like to say?
(a) Full HD screen is a must.
(b) No gaming (not even minesweeper or candy crush saga)
(c) SSD if under budget or at-least SSD slot for future upgrade.
(d) Preinstalled OS is not required (I will install it myself)
(e) Good battery backup

1.No full HD screen in this budget.
2.no ssd or ssd slot(assuming you meant m2 slot) in this budget,only option is to replace hdd with ssd.

Only option with 7th gen core i3:

Only cons I can see is the battery backup of around 3~3.5hrs. which is ok for me.
I don't think a strong battery backup laptop will be available in this range.

Also these laptops officially have only win 10 64bit drivers.
