How can they change warranty period every year? Does it depend on demand or to increase demand?

i dont know. seagate once decreased warranty period to 1 year and after some months they increased it to 2 years.
Atleast 3-5 years is required for a hdd.

I have to wait until next month cos no money all all at present. 
you can't claim warranty on OEM drive [ at-least not from HDD manufacturer ] because they have sold it to some 3rd party pc builders or other companies [ for eg . Dell / Toshiba ] under certain different T and C which does not apply for general end user. So be careful about this.
The difference between Retail Kit and Bare HDD is the retail HDDs comes in a fancy packaging, have installation manual and other necessary accessories to install the HDD where's the Bare HDD comes packed in a anti static bag only and may or may not have same warranty period.

Really? I purchased seagate barracuda 1tb that came inside a plastic bag (within flipkart's) packaging and bill and a barebones multi language booklet. No seagate box or even mounting screws

I always end up buying bare HDD not retail kit.

You end up buying bare bones HDD but I end up buying bare bones HDD only every time because vendors always have them in stock not the retail kits as I have never seen them.
here you go
WD WD Black WDBAAZ0010HNC-NRSN 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Retail - Newegg.com
and the bare drive :

the $30 price difference for some fancy stuff kept many from getting a retail kit.

Same here.
Actually I have not bought any Retail HDD for very long time.
Last time I bought Retail HDD was Samsung IDE 80GB in year 2003.
Very strange.
