dude it would be my first computer ever so please tell me pentium 620 and mobo you suggested future proof ???

here you go... :)

dude you have suggested good processor but dude i heared about intel G620 is equal to i3 in performence despite low price and pehaps futuer proof too.apart from that my budget is 22 k and i cant afford extention in my budget so suggest me processor and mobo that can run the enternet fast.and should be in my budget.

i3-2100 is better in terms of performance and is more future proof, it also has hyper threading thus there are virtually 4 cores running.
for cost cutting you can do it

cpu: i3-2100 @3.3GHz - 6.9K
mobo: MSI H61M-P20 G3 - 2.6K
psu: COOLER MASTER ELITE 350 -1.5K
RAM: Corsair DDR3 value 4 GB - 1.2K
hdd: Seagate 320GB - 3.1K
monitor: ACER 18.5" LCD - 4.9K
gfx: amd hd 6450 - 3.0K
cabinet: any one around 1K

total : 24.2 (these are as per online prices, you can bargain with the shopkeepers and can easily keep the price within your range :p)
Still if you are not satisfied then what panwala95 advised.

dude @ akky89 change that 320gb into wd caviar blue with .7k more
also as many decent 20' monitors are available at 6k why go with a 18.5 "?
change the single ram module into 2x2gb modules which will cost the same while giving the benefit of dual chaneel

@panwala95, it will push the total out of budget as he already mentioned it.
and at this price point there is not much performance difference between the seagate and caviar blue.
but if he can spend extra these changes will certainly produce a positive effect.
and totally agree with 2x2GB module part :)

@panwala
well it is extreme value for money and its in OP's hand now....
but your recommendation is perfect.

nope 2x2GB is not optimal priced anywhere, rather will be 400-500 bkcks constiler, dual channel will not be much of a benefit in this case
I think rest will put them all in the budget

i guess you already figured out what gfx is...
and its up to you if need one or not...
if you remove the graphics card then the system will be in your budget completely.

cpu: i3-2100 @3.3GHz - 6.9K
mobo: ASUS P8H 61-MLX - 2.8K
psu: COOLER MASTER ELITE 350 -1.5K
RAM: Corsair DDR3 value 4 GB - 1.2K
HDD: seagate 160GB - 2.3K
cabinet: any one around 1K
monitor: ACER 18.5" LCD - 4.9K

total : 20.6K

with the rest money you can add speakers or UPS to the system.
cheers!
