Half the stuff won't be available. And the stuff that is will cost twice as much.

Last guys going to India with similar stuff carried gpu and hard drive in hand luggage. Everything gets XRayed but it doesn't damage anything. He had a monitor too which I'd be worried about.

The PC though, open it up and stuff the inside full of bubble wrap. Then put the PC in the case box with the foam paking. That should survive the trip.

Why do you want to buy from amazon.com? Buy from flipkart or amazon.in or your local store. If you buy from amazon.com chances are you will not get warranty.

The EVGA is not available in India, and the intel too is not yet released here. So you won't get any support for those here. Corsair has wonderful support here, but I doubt they will stand by a product not yet released here (DDR4). For me a product has zero value if it doesn't have warranty.

And the power supply will come with USA plug.

Hi Ishit! There are services which involve a third party which ships it to you.

Let me explain the thing.

You buy the product from a foreign site(say newegg.com) and use this third party service to ship it to their warehouse's address. They receive your product and send it back to your address(to your country,of course).
These guys have lower shipping rates compared to the sites which ship internationally.
They also provide you with a chance to reduce the shipment size(sometimes all the unwanted packaging and things like that add weight to the product,right?) by repacking the good.
Here is one site:

And are you sure that you are aware that warranties of those products are void in India? Just asking.

Sorry for not being fast in replying...............but buying components from abroad does make sense only if there's a huge price difference.
You didn't state the purpose of your build,maybe if you change your mind, guys here could suggest you a build that suits your needs.
I don't see any merit in getting a DDR4,by the way.
