When you say heavy programming - which programming languages do you have in mind and any IDEs (for Python, RnR and so on)?

 

[ksk575]

which programming languages do you have in mind

C/C++

 

[ssb1551]

You can easily run C/C++ on Pentium G series. But since you have a budget of 50 for CPU+MoBo+RAM you can go for Ryzen 5 since they have more cores than their Intel counterparts.

Ryzen 5 1500X - Rs. 14.5k + shipping charges to Mumbai
AMD RYZEN 5 SERIES QUAD CORE PROCESSOR 1500X - WITH WRAITH SPIRE COOLING SOLUTION (AM4 SOCKET, 16MB CACHE, UP TO 3.7 GHz)

MotherBoard : GIGABYTE GA-AB350M-GAMING 3 - 8.2k at PrimeABGB
Buy Online | Gigabyte GA-AB350M-Gaming 3 B350 Socket AM4 Motherboard | Price in India

RAM - 10k [RAM prices have just shot up. If I were you, I would get a single 8GB stick now and buy another of the same when the prices come down after 6 months or so]
Also, I suggested GSkill because most of their RAMs have no issues running at the specified MHz without tinkering with BIOS settings. You may opt for Corsair, Avexir or HyperX.
G.SKILL DESKTOP RAM RIPJAWS V SERIES 16GB (8GBx2) DDR4 2400MHz (F4-2400C15D-16GVR)
OR
G.SKILL DESKTOP RAM RIPJAWS V SERIES 16GB (8GBx2) DDR4 3000MHz (F4-3000C15D-16GVRB)

All of the above will cost you under 34k. You can spend the remaining the 16k on a GPU or you can go for a more powerful CPU (like Ryzen 7 1700).

Budget -34.5K

AMD Ryzen R5 1600x -16500,
Asus Prime B350 Plus -8000,
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB(8GBx2) 3000Mhz -10000.
TOTAL -34,500.

@bssunilreddy - I found 18.7k to be the cheapest price for 1600X at mdcomputers.in. One still has to add the shipping charges from Kolkatta to Mumbai. Where do you quote 16.5K? If its a shop in Secunderabad, then I had contacted them once and they asked 1200 as shipping charges to Bangalore so I assume they will charge more than 1200 for shipping to Mumbai since OP is from Mumbai. So I think its best to suggest cheapest online price as compared to local prices. If a member is from Hyderabad or nearby city then your quote makes sense otherwise you only give false hopes to posters.

1600 would be better. 1600x doesn't comes with a cooler and isn't priced that low. Did you again quote some local dealer's price?

A note to everybody who wishes to help.For people in Mumbai,always quote prices from primeabgb online site as their shop is in Mumbai itself(Lamington Road). Nobody should be able to match most of their their prices including delivery charges at least in Mumbai unless it is Amazon or Flipkart giving some offer.

No offence, they are the biggest chu**yas ever from my experience.
Note to OP prices are coming down, just wait till Diwali before upgrading.

I think you have issues with them over post-GST ram prices or something but they are quite a big & reputable shop not just in Mumbai but in India.I guess you got one of those unlucky situation but on an average they are recommended especially for people in Mumbai.
