Answering the questions :
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run?
Ans:
Code:
Browsing, watching youtube , watching video/listening to music.
Office work using PDF, Microsoft Word, some excel work.
Mostly document reading and editing.
Gaming - Mostly strategy, rpg games like Elder scrolls online, diablo 3, age of wonders 3,
and few action/fps games like GTA V, Far Cry 5 as long as these run in Medium settings in a playable frame rate should be fine.
Basic Expectation is play games released in the last few years and not looking to play latest and greates games coming out.
Very casual gamer - maybe 2-3 hours a week max.
2. What is your overall budget?

Code:
Upto 30k INR, Preferably under 25K INR

No.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans:

Windows 10 Home
5. How much hard drive / solid-state drive space is needed?
