Can you please state the source??
I looked at all the leading online stores like itwares, smc , primeabgb & many more but I couldn't find a Sapphire 6770 for 6.2k. I think the cheapest I found was at smc but it was MSI 6770 for 6.4k(without shipping).

I recently(27/9) helped a friend upgrade
We bought the MSI HD6770 for 6.2k from Lamington road, shop's name was Othree.
But obviously that was with a lot of bargaining since we got the complete rig from there. I guess the OP can bargain in a local shop or buy it for 6.4k online. I just posted the lowest known price by me
