you ask for a mobile phone with good battery backup & camera.
you are suggested Nokia C2-01, which fulfills both of your requirement.
then you say it doesn't looks good & screen is small.

Next suggestion came as Cedar, which again fulfills all your suggestion.
You again complain about low battery problem on SE mobiles.

really, whats your problem. you want everything in that small budget & when you are suggested something that suites your budget, you complain about this & that.

a simple search at flipkart shows just 3 good option to consider:
Nokia C2-01
Sony Ericsson Cedar
Sony Ericsson Spiro

if you want more choice, visit your nearest mobile store & talk to the shopkeeper there. maybe he'll able guide you better finding the perfect mobile.

Nokia X2 review: Verdict | from TechRadar's expert reviews of Mobile phones

We liked

The Nokia X2 has awesome battery life; this phone will go for days on moderate use and gave us a real sense of freedom from the socket. The crisp and clear loudspeaker was a clear winner and the X2's media expandability means you have the potential for hours of tunes.

Build quality is also fairly solid and the inclusion of an aluminium back is a welcome touch of luxury.

We disliked

The X2 has seriously unfriendly buttons. If you have the fingers of a borrower, then the X2 will probably suit you fine. However we just couldn't get on with the tightly-spaced, unresponsive keys.

The camera is pretty bad. Yes it's 5MP, and the images may be large, but they are washed out and blurry, even in daylight conditions.

The handset also has a lacklustre choice of applications and dire connectivity options, which were enough to make long-term use a chore.

Verdict

The Nokia X2 is great value for those who just want a simple mobile phone. However this handset feels confused. It has the styling of a teenager and the features of a dinosaur :lol: If you are looking to replace your aging handset, this could be the one for you. Otherwise we suggest steering clear.

Asha 300 seems good

Stay away from X2. this one has serious restart problem. Use a 4GB / 8GB card and it will restart frequently.
SE elm is no longer available. if you can, get this. Sturdy, good cam, good battery back up. Typical SE phone.
other options Samsung S5610 and / or Nokia C5.

Asha 300 would be priced some where around 7000
Asha 201 and 200 seem to be good options.
Also consider the Motorola Gleam!

Go for any of the following two i.e. Samsung S3770 or Nokia 5233. Both are nice phones and features wise both are almost same.

Motorola isnt THAT bad. My Grandmother has been using one, one of the Yuva Flip phone models for 3 years now. It still works perfectly fine and the Large buttons like the ones in Gleam are amazing for woman with big nails.
If after sales service is a problem, from what Ive heard the only problem is locating a Moto service centre, other wise their Service is good.
