I suppose you are buying GL552VW
For 70k its good.... Just confirm with Asus about the international warranty
But I personally don't think importing is so cheap. Someone from this forum paid ₹10000 for shipping + import duties on a $1000 laptop
I paid around INR 11k customs for a $835 laptop (plus 108$ Fedex international priority shipping). Mine's the Dell I7559 Core i7 GTX 960m version.
The customs percentage is currently around 17% (CVD + SAD charges) for imported laptops. Of course, with the fluctuating exchange rate your mileage may vary by a few Ks.
The Dell laptop is a beast and its build quality is excellent.
The GL552VW is similar in specs(plus DDR4 and SSD) and is also a great option if buying from India.

So you got it for what ₹72-75k?
Yep...around 72-73k (including priority shipping by Fedex). So effectively, got the i7 cheaper than the Indian i5 version.

Good, I have ordered i5 version for 76k from Paytm after cashback
[MENTION=274911]abcxyz[/MENTION], if you can wait for few weeks, thrn maybe you can get base model of GL552VW at 83k minus 8-10k cashback from Paytm. Top model of GL552VW sells for 93k & had 10k cashback a few weeks ago. Paytm has already listed fully loaded G551 with UHD display at 1 lakh
Earlier I was only thinking about the shipping charges and forgot about the tax and all stuff.
Yeah I will wait. Hope Paytm gives a good deal.
