Guys I need a 16GB Pen drive with USB 3.0 Support.
Main purpose would be to copy videos from PC onto the flash drive and watch it on my LED TV.

USB 3.0 is very important because I will be copying huge files onto the pen drive.
From whatever I have read looks like my options are
1. Corsair
2. Transcend Jet Flash

Also I assume the 3.0 ones are costlier than their USB 2.0 counterparts!

Sujeeth do you think I will get it at lesser price at a computer shop compared to flipkart. Generally I find the prices to be more at flipkart!

Never used any Corsair, but as far as my experience goes they are all more or less same regarding transfer rate.

Tough luck mates there is no Pen Drive that supports 3.0 available in the local Computer market here.
Only one shop had a stock of Corsair but that's out of stock and there was some other brand which I'm not sure of.

I don't know why are you so confused to buy a damn pendrive. Just get the corsair GT from here @ 1450/-. It can't be cheaper. It was 1800 2 months back.

Sorry guys for digging up this one. Looking for a 16GB/32GB Pen drive. Speed etc doesn't matter. Will be primarily using it to connect to TV to watch movies etc for my parents on their new TV. Saandisk or Transcend or Kingston or adata?
Online where can I get for least price?

I bought strontium 16GB usb 3.0 pendrive from infibeam for Rs.550/-. Being 3.0, it has very good read write speeds (approximately twice) compared to 2.0 drives even when connected to usb2.0 ports. USB3.0 is backward compatible with 2.0. This is the cheapest 16gb pendrive you can buy. I think it sells for 500 bucks in snapdeal.com

1. Strontium 16GB Jet USB 3.0 Flash Drive Price in India, Buy Strontium 16GB Jet USB 3.0 Flash Drive Online - Infibeam.com at 503.
2. Buy with ICICI along with coupon ICICIFEST12 and get 10% off. (ICICIFEST12 is a one-time coupon for all users, so use a fake account if you want to use again)
3. So, you will get around 405/- for USB3.0 pen drive.

^^ Is Strontium a good brand? Didn't hear much about it !
I messed up the purchase. Was initially planning to go for CC Purchase however I accidentally selected Cash On Delivery. Is there anyway I can cancel this purchase. Now when I check I find there is no option for CC purchase.
