Nice to have a recognised dev amongst us :D

With that budget, I'd suggest you wait. If you were to buy something under 18k, I'd say get the optimus L9 for 14995/- on hs18 superdeal while its still on. For 25k there is no point spending that much right now on last gen chipsets(unless you are desperate for a phone). So wait for a few weeks, many interesting phones and announcements are due. S4 launch, Lava Clovertrail+, xperia midrange refresh, etc

Only option worthy close to your budget is the Nexus 4. It is also a developers dream phone, so you will enjoy making custom roms for the best devs on XDA. PPL like Franco(Arguably best kernel dev) choose to make kernels exclusively for nexus devices, so it will be a great learning experience.
You can get the 8GB for 24399/- and 16GB for 27690/- on ibhejo.com, They do have an international warranty policy too, but its best to contact them to confirm their terms and conditions.

Nexus 4 Is Cool,But I Don't Like The Limited Storage.
I Like To Try Out .imgs On Android.(4-5 GB) Then My Songs (3 GB Approx:-D ),Games Like NFS MW Or Fifa (4 GB) And Then No Space Remaining For .zips Of Roms.
So I Have Decided To Go For A Device With Expandable Storage :wink:
Optimus L9 Is Also Good But It Has Five Variants,So A Little Hard To Develop For :-D
Waiting For Sony To Officially Announce Xperia SP And Xperia L.
Thanks.

You can store your songs/movies/multimedia on a USB flash drive and use the OTG feature. Nexus 4 is definitely the one to go for, you will learn a lot from the best devs and get immense recognition. 16GB should be sufficient in most cases.

But if its not suitable for you then, its better to wait for newer phones with expandable memory.

I will go with the second option.

I would reccomend that you wait ..... for atleast a month.......If u want a phone now, then I think you must try to get LG Optimus 4X ....
