ell 15R 5558 i7 5th Gen, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD, DVDRW, Win 8.1, 15.6" Full HD Touch

Lenovo is pricey sorry i thoght you mentioned 60k

Currently all prices of electronics products have increased due to devaluation of Rupee against Dollar.Still Lenovo is a bit lower in price when compared to that of DELL,HP,ASUS,Toshiba,etc. manufacturers of Laptops/Notebooks.

Very good suggestion,Friend.Except a single slot ram placement seriously hinders and undermines the purpose of upgradation and a bit of future proofing.

It says it has a standard keyboard. Doesn't mention backlit keyboard..

It has backlit keyboard

2 of my friends own it

One slot for RAM. Can't really understand Dell's way of cost cutting.

It's either pay $$$ to get the ram upgraded from service center without loosing warranty or buy the laptop with 8 GB ram for 6k more or F*** off.

4GB RAM is sufficient for most people.... If you need more, get a 8GB one @ 5k

then What to do?? any other option.. I really want one with a backlit keyboard.

That is mainly your call. If you can get more ram after paying 5k you should get that. But that ain't worth the money spend.

Truly said bro., but don't forget why it is so?
The economic shake(China's currency depreciation + U.S. factor + ...)has weakened the Rupee against the Dollar,and thus all electronic products are overpriced,currently.
