For 18 K, you can look at the AMD based LLANO configurations which was suggested for many others, you can look at the other threads in this section for the config details

LLANO would ensure that you have more than decent gaming performance and give more than enough performance for your other needs
 
^^ AMD A8-3850 ~ 7000/- OR AMD A6-3650 ~ 5900/-
Gigabyte GA-A75-S2V ~ 5900/-
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ~ 2700/-
Corsair 4GB x 1 1333MHz CL-9 ValueRAM ~ 1900/-
Dell IN2030M ~ 6500/- (20" monitor)
Cooler Master eLite 310 ~ 1500/-
FSP Saga II 400 ~ 1900/-
Altec Lansing BXR 1221 ~ 1100/-
APC BR 600VA-IN ~ 1900/-
If your friend wants all components within 18000/- its going to get tight, tell him to kindly increase his budget a little OR wait for a month more to see, what releases and price drops (speculative) and then get his system with a revised budget ~ 25000/-. Hope this helps.
 
Components Description Price (INR)

Processor Intel Pentium Dual Core G620 6500(combo)

Motherboard Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2-B3 combo

RAM 4GB Kingston DDRIII 1333MHz 1500

HDD Seagate 1TB 7200.12 2800

GPU Intel HD Graphics -

Monitor Dell IN2020M 6000

Cabinet Zebronics Bijli W/O PSU 1100

PSU FSP saga II 350W 1500

Key Board Logitech SET - Optical Blk Mouse+ MMKB 650

Mouse NA -

ODD Samsung 22X SATA DVD 950

Speakers Logitech R20 2.1 850

Total 21850

But by choosing 500GB HDD, 2GB RAM and a smaller 18.5" screen he can save about ~2.5k.

His budget is not sufficient enough for his expectations. Ask him to increase the budget a wee bit or save up a bit. He he waits a little the Llano dual cores and the A55 mobo combos should be released <7k.
 
@ Darkangel : is the prices that are given out have vat [ 4 %] added or will it be added to it after buying ???

and is the intel processor with 2 cores - 4 thread like i3 540 or 2100 ???? can't check it on net as the network of aircel is failing every sec :(
