Approximate Purchase Date: within a month

Budget Range: 40K-50K INR
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Web Surfing, MS Office, OTTs, playing DOTA2 above the minimum settings (Gaming will become the highest priority after a year or so for which I will upgrade later)

Are you buying a monitor: Yes
Do you need to buy OS: No

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: e.g.: Amazon.in, Flipkart.com (Any website that delivers in India with minimum Shipping cost)

Location: Ranchi, Jharkhand (India)
Parts Preferences: by brand or type: CPU preference - Intel (AMD if it provides a much better alternative)
GPU- Can skip for now
UPS- needed (lot of power cuts in my area)

Overclocking: Not right now

SLI or Crossfire: Not right now

Your Monitor Resolution: 4K if Possible

Additional Comments: I want to currently set up a base configuration which I will later upgrade into a gaming PC (within a year or two after I start earning). Basically I don't want a system which I will have to discard in order build a decent gaming rig later and hence going a little heavy on my pocket for a base configuration.

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: I have been using a potato laptop with Windows 7 for the past 7 years whose pixels are going dark with each passing day

P.S.: Suggestions for configuration below the provided budget with a scope of further upgrade are also Highly welcomed as I am currently borrowing money from my parents and do not want to impose much financial burden on them.

Thanking You.
