You can get warranty transferred to India for both AFAIK.

Same laptops would be priced at 1.5-2x their USA price here in India.

Is Intel Integrated Graphics enough for casual gaming ??

How would you rate the Xiaomi Air 13.3 ...as the Asus Vivobook is priced similar.

Anyways i do not know people abroad to buy and send the laptop for me, I guess will have to purchase online itself.

No international warranty and utter crap custom duties make it cost around 100k INR.
No point in suggesting it.
