OP doesn't need an i3 IMO.
OP can save more than Rs.3300 by getting a dual core G645 2.9 GHz processor and invest the saved money to a better display (20" Samsung or Dell) and a bit greater RAM.
Corsair Value RAM 4GB costs only Rs.1100 so why 2GB..
Also get a APC 600VA UPS,don't buy a cheap UPS.

If you want to go lower ditch the DVD writer for now.

PS: Although it may cost more, APC UPS is always recommended, see if you manage one by increasing just a bit.
