Hp G6 2005ax should be good enough for your purpose.The apu based system should be better than an i5 bases sytem with hd 4000 in Photoshop functions that can make use of OpenCL acceleration.
Also in gaming 7670m >> hd4000.With the inclusion of Win7 and USB3.0 ports it looks better overall package which is suitable for your workloads at that price range.

@ VKL : Thanks a lot. Considering to buy the same. But am owning a Win 7 Pro, so thinking of a model which has no bundled OS. Also an advice on the local purchase in Chennai is very much appreciated

you can check Asus K53SM if you want one without OS but it is priced at 39-40k and other than having a better processor, nothing else to brag about. Best is to pick the one you have selected as nowadays most laptops ship with Windows.
