Not a good choice,better get one of these:
*www.amazon.in/Lenovo-15-6-inch-R5-...8&qid=1539605232&sr=1-3&keywords=ryzen+laptop
*www.amazon.in/Dell-15-6-inch-Windo...8&qid=1539605232&sr=1-2&keywords=ryzen+laptop

There is no point in buying a i5 8th gen at ~40k without at least a decent graphics card & the one you shortlisted seems to have amd radeon 530 graphics as per comments on amazon(flipkart seller doesn't even mention it so you can guess) which is just equal to a 930m released more than 2 years ago.

No but currently a decent 120gb ssd is available for 1.8k & the best budget ssd samsung 860evo 250gb is available for 4.2k from onlyssd.com so that's not an issue.

Then If I want to install SSD later in my laptop what feature / port should be there ?

The most standard way is to simply replace the hdd in laptop with ssd & use that hdd as portable hdd by using it in a usb hdd case like orico transparent available on amazon.You have to confirm though with dealer if this can be done by you or has to be done at authorized service centre so as to avoid voiding warranty(in many laptops accessing hdd means opening the entire back panel which will definitely void warranty if there are any stickers or seals inside/outside).
