Check b/g/n models in Flipkart. Possibly, get a TP Link model with USB support. ac routers will cost more than 2k

Netgear R6080, R6120 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Routers Launched in India Starting at Rs. 2,700

Saw the above on Gadgets 360. Not sure about the quality and performance.

Netgear is not known for making good budget models especially ones that cost less than 8-9k.Below 5k best options are tplink or dlink or maybe asus(if willing to compromise on features to get better support with custom firmwares).
