So I want to buy a laptop for light gaming but all of them are very expensive in India and there are very few options with the new nvidia 1050/1050ti and also expensive. I was wondering if I could get laptop with 940MX and upgrade it to a 1050ti..I read it is possible to upgrade with a dedicated graphics card.

Generally, no. Eurocom makes gpu upgrade kits for a select few laptops and there are a couple of external gpu solutions(like the razer core) but these are usually tailor built for a specific brand of laptops. Not to mention the cost is massive. I'm no expert so there's probably something i'm missing. But with my limited knowledge i'd say you're definitely better off waiting for a sale or building a pc.
