My specs are
Amd Phenom II X6 1090T BE (125w)
M4a88-M
4gb Corsair Value Ram 1333MHz
Local PSU 550:)()

I am buying GTX 650Ti Boost Gcard

as i am on tight budget can i get Corsair cx500v2(80+) ?

because i have strong feeling that my system using too much power(approx 350 ...let me know if i am wrong) ,so i have doubt over cx500v2 will fulfill my req.as it will consume :)-o+12V@34A, -12V@0.8A, )
400w(as per 80+ eff....)......i have also heard that power decreses gradually with time as i have to stay with my build atleast 4yrs.......so any more suggestion over my confusion or i hav to change ma psu choice ?

Cx 500 costs me 3.3k (@primeabgb)

i can spend 3.5k for psu ......(max 3700 if worth) ............thanx for replies in advance :D........:p.

You can check the required wattager from this calculator: eXtreme Power Supply Calculator

And 500W will be enough.

Since PSU is a long term investment and a critical part of a Computer dont compromise and get a Seasonic S12II520 for Rs 4500 or if thats too much stretching the budget get the S12II430. The second option is the Cooler Master GX450 Bronze,which is also very good.
