If you want i5, you really should wait for coffeelake. (Still a R5 1600 would be much better in multi threaded tasks)
Your work doesn't requires a 1060. Don't know why he recommended it. You could very well do that with a 1030, but get a 1050ti at least to be on the safe side.

Thanks SaiyanGoku I again asked this specific question because a laptop repair guy whom I met recently suggested not to go to graphics cards unless we are into too much photo and video editing as built in will be more than enough but yes it will take 3 or 5 times more time to process

Why don't you see for yourself?In a desktop you can always add a graphics card later so build the system without graphics card & see how much time it takes for your editing works.If that's acceptable to you then don't buy graphics card.You can also compare the timings by doing same editing work on some friend/relative pc/laptop with graphics card to see how much time you will save with a graphics card like 1050Ti.

A GPU does help as evident here:
(Don't ignore it just because of the title)
It comes down to OP whether he wants to get the Ryzen 5 now or wait for coffeelake.

I know gpu helps but how much it helps depends on what kind of editing op does.If his work is not complex enough then maybe the difference won't be that much.e.g.if his usual editing takes around 5 min using integrated gpu but GTX1050Ti does it in 1 min then even though it is 5 times faster it still is not of much use to op unless op daily spends at least 2-3 hours on editing/rendering during which he wants to do other things too.e.g.if he doesn't want to do other things then too saved time by using 1050Ti is of not much use because you can always let the tasks run in night while sleeping.

Now that coffeelake processor is just 1-2 weeks from launch I am thinking of waiting. Any idea how long it might take to come to indian shops ?

Yes I will try to go without external graphics first and see if its even required and then add it later if necessary because I will never use it for games

Good choice. A friend of mine with a core i7 processor added a 1060 to the desktop. He says that photoshop editing time has hardly changed. The downside is that power consumption and heat generation inside cabinet has increased.
You may want to check out PugetSystems website for a comparative review of Intel vs AMD processors.

Thanks for the advice.

Heard that from local vendors that even if intel launches COFFEE LAKE processor in next few days it will take atleast 2-3 months to get it in India with compatible motherboard . How true is this ?

Initially only Z370 boards are expected , so expect around 12.5-13k price for the cheapest motherboard( if they launch cheapest variants of z370 boards ) ..
budget and mid range boards are expected around February

things will become clear by tomorrow .. wait and watch
