Question is as simple as it gets.
Oh and consider official ICS ports and third party (but confirmed stable) ICS ports seperately.

What is the cheapest ICS Phone ?
How about ONE V?
if you can wait all new phones will be shipped with ics ,even the sub 10k ones
Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini
20k does not qualify remotely as cheap.
Apparently NONE of the current gen sub 10k phones are getting ICS. Optimus Net is the only sub-10k phone with hardware fully capable of using ICS but neither LG or the modding community is interested in this phone.
EDIT: And perhaps add newer phones like LG Optimus L3 E400 to the list. But still support seems nil.
AFAIK only the Xperia Mini Pro has ICS right ? Does the Xperia Mini also have ICS support ?

All Sony Ericsson/Sony phones have ICS support except Xperia Play. So yes mini and Live with walkman also have ICS

mini has official as well as unofficial ICS. Galaxy Fit/Pop too have ICS i think.
Optimus One have and same was ported to Net. don't know whats the current status of the same but then camera was not working.

Nop galaxy pop no ICS 
One V is 17.5k
the cheapest ICS phones are from Spice...not launched yet...but they are launching dual core phones with 4 inch screen with ICS for arnd 12k
The time is not right to buy a new entry level or midrange phone... All companies have let us down... Wait for a few months, and hope some decent phones are released.
P.S. LG L3 is a piece of rotten garbage covered in sh!t. Never think of buying that ugly SOB...

These are some of the good and not so expensive devices with ICS ...but i still say that you are spending 13k ..collect a little more and spend it on HTC ONE V which is for 16.5-17k

Spice, Micromax, Karbonn and every other chinese junk importer is OFF my list when I spend anything more than 3k.

LG L3 is a piece of rotten garbage covered in sh!t. Never think of buying that ugly SOB...Noticed that hence this thread. My Galaxy Y was stolen sometime in November last year. I was hearing rumors of cheap ICS since then and right now the best ICS devices seem to be Micromax or Milagrow tablets that sadly lack 3G.
Did not notice till you posted this that it has QVGA screen even though it *should* have HVGA at that screen size. Shite!!!
Anyway, back to ICS ports, which of the Galaxy series phones officially are supported by CM9 ? And what about Idea Blade ?
Up your budget and get a galaxy nexus.
The only android phone worth buying.

Thought Xperia Mini is the chapest phone with ICS but get Live With Walkman for around 12.5k which is the cheap and best phone with ICS

I actually depends. I bought LWW coz I want a small android phone for comfortable bike ride while the phone is in my jeans pocket.

Note : Though I have complained about Live with Walkman's performance in ICS in another thread, it is in comparison between Sony moded 2.3 and 4.0. Else its the best cheap ICS phone.

What is the difference between Walkman and Mini ? Walkman has 3.2" screen over Mini's 3" screen right ? Every other aspect in the specs seems identical.
^^ mini has better screen.. with sony bravia engine, also with practical usage. live has some contrast and viewing angle issues
Lww has front camera,3.2 inch screen.. usb on the Go(on spec sheet) and as low screen so better battery backup, little better PPI, looks lot better then mini..
mini looks very small & girly, at least to me

I was seriously considering Xperia Mini Pro before deciding to wait for cheaper phones to appear or CM9 to go stable. Budget reasons
I recently bought LWW. It is a good phone over all.. mini pro is totally different with qwerty in it.
we are talking about cm9 here so need to share, why LWW does not has CM9 support where it is not much different then mini or mini pro.. shares same hardware...

I need either a large screen (bigger on-screen keys) or QWERTY on my next Android. Galaxy Y cut my phone typing speeds to 30% of what it used to be.
Officially the cheapest ICS 4.0 phone is gonna be the just announced Sony Xperia Tipo for 9k bucks !
3.2 inch screen HVGA
3.2mp cam

That and upto 32GB expandable memory and Adreno 200 GPU. If it really comes for 9k I'm definitely buying it
EDIT: UPDATE:
Another device launching at a similar price is the Acer Iconia A110 7" tablet. *www.geeky-gadgets.com/acer-iconia-a110-sub-200-android-tablet-announced-06-06-2012/

Hell man if it comes to the US under 200$ it HAS to come to India under Rs. 13000. That much for a quad core tablet which most certainly will get a lot of attention from developers is something most people will NOT say a no to

There have been many under 200$ high specced tablets in the US including the kindle Fire tablet. But did they make their way to India ? No
And also even if this tablet does come to India, it will cost a minimum 25k.

EDIT: UPDATE:

Dude, Adreno 200 is present in all budget android devices, Optimus one, Galaxy Mini, Ace, Wildfire etc..
In my opinion, anything less than armv7 is not worth buying, you wont be able to experience android to the fullest..
To OP
Buy a neo V, it is available at 13.5K at ebay, best deal as it has 800*480 screen , 1 GHZ processor with Adreno 205, 512 MB RAM, Front cam, 5 MP with Flash, and Official ICS.. Not to mention the bravia graphics engine on the phone..
