Thanks in advance for your consideration and advices....:clapping:
 
If you want bang for the buck, look no further than Pioneer. Their prices in India are the best for AV receivers and you should be looking at their LX series. Even the base LX-56 has 95% of the features you have listed. Pioneer don't have Audyssey but their own MCACC calibration works really well.

However; I don't see the point in todays world for insisting on component video switching. If its there good, if it isn't, its not something your gonna miss at all.

Sir, you have copied pasted the required features from a pretty high end AVR feature list.
I doubt you will get 4k Upscaling on a budget AVR. 4k passthrough , yes but mostly not upscaling. As mentioned above, please tell us your budget so we can understand what is your definition of budget.
 
please make up your mind for high pockets .bcoz u have listed features of beauty without maintenance expenditure .means hollywood heroine in bollywood budget.
