So why waste a lot of money in a phone if you have such basic requirements ?
Get some sub 5k phone from Nokia or Samsung.
All high-end phones are touch based. If you're a rough user & want to use your whole budget, then go for Motorola Defy for about 17k. Its gorrila glass is scratch-proof & the phone itself is rugged.

I suggested the best phone which your budget can buy based on your requirements. Defy was launched in India recently but it is not a very latest phone considering it runs Android 2.1. Also it seems that you're a big noob in mobile phones. Still if you insist on buying outdated Nokia crapware, feel free to do so. It will be a great wastage of money.

Motorola Defy or Samsung Wave 2, both have 3.7" screen with great resolution and flash support, which make then ideal for web browsing. Though I suggest you to get Defy as its more rugged and android browser is more mature.
And that nokia e73 was good, but nowhere near above two mentioned phones

but i heard motorola is poor performer in case of battery back up is it correct....
and amazingly all the high end phones are coming only in full touch... what abt for rough users.. too bad..
any way i will check Moto defy..
Its battery life is average, not good enough for heavy usage
For rough user there are phones with much better build quality than rest of the phones.

It was a time when people only relied only on Nokia (& Sony Ericsson to some point). That time brands like LG, Motorola, Samsung, etc caused users to doubt its reliability. Things have changed now. Samsung Galaxy S, Motorola Milestone & LG Optimus One changed the perception we had for those brands.
Android phones have a poor battery backup be it Samsung or Motorola. This is because the phone is capable of doing plenty of things & thus hogs battery.
One more thing I want to ask you is what is rough usage which is meant to be done to a phone. Do you use it to play football ?

see rough usage in the sense.. i will kept my mobile here and there ... simply throw to my bed.. and i had slippery hand and it will fell many times from my hand...
and see am not particular to android or any OS.. because once i got the phone i wont try to upgrate the firmware or whatever it is.. i wont try to download applications....
i will use this for normal phone usage...
for music/video..
and internet ofcourse...
like u suggested some phones in the 7-8k range will be also fine for me.. but i will be thank ful if u suggest some model name....

^^that was if the OP wanted to consider a full touch phone in the nokia brand name + he gets an 8MP camera with AMOLED screen and the gorilla glass display which makes it scratch resistant. (good if you are a rough handler of your phone.)

c5 will be good , but going qwerty keypad will be better interms of internet usage right.. like for texting and all
it seems to be a good option but considering moto defy and this model...
which will be good....

Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think that the C7 has Gorilla Glass. I checked the phonearena.com & gsmarena.com specs & reviews.

^^gsmarena has listed scratch resistant gorilla glass. check the specs.
@Baker: if you want better camera and amoled screen go for c7 else go for defy. also in most cases i find nokia devices to be suitable for rough handling.
