^^ P4's performce is not good dude, thats why AMD was a clear winner at the times of p4.
You should rather go for C2D even E4300 will give a decent performance.

Intel P4 3.0GHz: Rs. 3175
Gigabyte 865GSA Motherboard: Rs.2500
Dynet DDR 1 512 MB 400 Mhz: Rs. 1500
ComboDrive Sony. Rs.1300
SATA 80GB hardDisk: Rs 2000
CAbinet with power supply (400W): Rs.1500

Total: Rs. 11975

You can use slower P4 and this can reduca the price and can help you add some more hardware in you system.
