i'm planning to buy gtx 1060 6gb , intel core i5 7500 processor and 16gb of DDR4 RAM, will msi b150m bazooka 6th gen mobo support all the above without any problems or perfomance issues, or can i go for some other motherboards of same price range ( INR ).

It will, with a BIOS update. The B150 boards need to be on the latest BIOS to support Kabylake, and the only way to flash the BIOS is to install a compatible chip (adding cost, even the cheapest Skylake chip to allow you to flash the BIOS is ~$40).

Look to a B250 or H270 board if you can. If the price is much higher, consider an i5-6500 paired with the B150 board.
