If Camera is an important priority, Check out Lumia 920/925 !! It takes Amazing pics !!

In Android, you can get Z1 Compact for around 30-32k. :)

If 4g is really required, then get Optimus G (AT&T) unlocked version from ebay @19-20k but beware that it won't have warranty. Phones don't have international warranty AFAIK. so you better be buying a phone there if warranty is a major requirement. at 25k, Moto X is really VFM.

It's camera is not so good, worse than even S3. So my suggestion, get Z1C, S4 or Lumia 925

Why can't you buy a new mobile there?
T-mobile has contract-based phones - check *www.t-mobile.nl/

Oh dear Lord :facepalm:

Anyway, if camera is a priority indeed go for L925, or XZ1 Compact.

Can't you get a Lumia 1020 at around 30k, fairly used?

@op
Lumia 1320 has a 5mp camera.
If you get 1020 in your budget get that.
also consider OPPO n1. Get a demo somewhere. It also has a great camera.

I think my budget will be constraint at 30k.

I think 920 or 925 will be better choice. Between these two which one is best..?

The picture quality is almost identical. If you get lumia 920 at a better price go for it as there isn't much of a difference.

If you want to go for Nokia, go for 1020.
It's the best camera phone at current date.
Even 925 is also good,but it has lower specs.
If 1020 comes in ur budget, go for it.

Both 920 and 925 are of same specs, only it's dimensions are different.
