That's an incredibly vague question - that's like asking who the shortest tall person or the poorest rich man are. Can you be more specific about your budget and needs? Only way this is an answerable question.

My budget is 20K (INR), 25K as high as possible. I am a casual gamer. I want to play games like BF 4, COD Ghosts, Watch Dogs etc (next and current gen. games) at lowest or moderate settings (high-highest settings if possible) and games like BF 3 etc. (games of previous 2-3 years) at high to highest settings (moderate will also do).

From flipkart

PSU - Corsair VS450 - Rs. 2356
Case - Cooler Master - Rs. 2492
HD - WD Green Hd 250GB - Rs. 2599
MB - ASUS M5A78L-M Rs. 3797
CPU - FX-6300 Rs. 7275
Sapphire AMD/ATI Radeon R7 250 - Rs.6356
RAM - 2xG.Skill NS DDR3 2 GB (1 x 2 GB) (2 x Rs. 1650 = Rs. 3300)

That's Rs. 28177 assuming you already have access to an operating system. And that'll just barely get you into a lot of low settings (medium if lucky) in recent games. If you need Windows, that's another Rs. 6000. Your max is just over $400 in US dollars and even with more options in the US and better prices, a $400 is a tight, tight budget to work with for a gaming build. I'm also assuming you can use your current optical drive.

You may be a casual gamer, but your game choices aren't casual, which is what's important. You could go APU and get the A10-7700k for both CPU and GPU for Rs. 11400, but the performance will be even lower than the above build.

Honestly, if you want a gaming rig that plays next-generation games, your best bet is to save up awhile longer.

Your looking at this all wrong.
Okay look no need to scrap the computer in fact keep and upgrade you will get more for less that way since you have about a $418 us budget.
What I am about to suggest should cost you about 22500 INR.
Scrap the cpu and gpu keep case power supply and mobo.
Find you a intel q6700 finding a refurb one is not hard and about $100 - $120 next get a evga gtx 650 worst case scenario $110.
Finally with atleast $130 left in your budget get ram and a wd cavier blue 1tb hard drive.
Make system image disks and a system repair disk of your current hard drive.
Pop in new one.
Put the system recovery in.
Then put the last disk of your system image in and follow the instructions it will give.
Bam your os is now on your new hard drive no need to buy windows.
Now go to search bar and put storage partition a tool to manage storage will come up.
Now go to the blue area (your storage) and left click than click add storage and add in all your new storage so the os will now recognize all your new storage.
Now that is done the fun begins.
Install the intel q6700 and evga gtx 650 (one at a time) and install needed drivers.
Last but not least install your new ram.
Bam.
This rig can play any game medium settings plenty on high to ultra and you should have some cash left over.
This is what you should do I HAVE done this before and I can help you through the process if needed.
This will get you best possible results cheers and happy gaming.
