Hello,

i need a decent headphone under 900 Rs. *strict*

i use them for movies and sometimes for music and gaming purpose.

so please suggest a decent type within budget.
i do not ask for much professional quality.

So the Req. are

1: Headphones with decent audio+Bass quality;
2: Would prefer "ear canal" type if they are similar to "over the head" bulky type in terms of quality.;
3: Budget below 900Rs.

PS. Microphone not required. but would do if no other option.

"i am really low on budget so please bear with me"

You said you preferred IEMs over Headphones. Thats why I suggested the Panasonics. You can even buy the Soundmagic ES18 (I havent heard it personally but everyone seems to like this one)

Yes. There is no such thing as Headphones being "better" than IEMs. IEM's can provide good bass although they may not thump your chest like external speakers.

ES18 is a good bet.. I can vouch for it.. It served its purpose well for me untill I accidentally stamped it during house shifting.. Poor thing gave way for my monster Corsair Vengeance 1500 (though it dint die on me, but was cracked opened)

Chill. You are not buying a launch control for a nuclear missile. :D

Music is very subjective and so are earphones. We have suggested what we think would suit you best. The final choice is yours. :)
