You want to include a monitor in 20k budget?

Cheapest config:
Intel pentium gold g5400--5000
asus prime H310M-E--4500
8gb adata d30 ddr4 8gb ram--3000
corsair vs450 psu--2400
any local brand cheap cabinet--700
Dell 19.5" monitor on amazon--4900
240gb kingston A400 ssd from onlyssd.com--2400(you will be much better off with a 240gb ssd compared to a 500gb hdd especially when running win 10 which is your only option on latest hardware).

^ buying a 720p monitor in 2019 is waste of money IMO.
Budget is too low to include a good 1080p 60hz monitor.

I know but now it is upto @op to decide.

Dear all, as it seems from your suggestions, I kept my budget way too low.
So, I am willing to raise it to 25k.
Also, I intend to use cheap zebronics cabinets with PSU(₹1200-500). HDD would be cheaper, ₹1200 for 500 gb.
Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong

These are a waste of money as well.

Is there a brand new 500GB HDD is in market with full manufacturer warranty? Go with Whitestar's suggested SSD.
With now increased budget you don't have to make big compromise like going for el cheapo PSU.

And use ongoing offers if you can.
