Verdict

Buy or import?
Buy in India looks safer at this estimate because the local price, warranty, returns, and invoice support outweigh the import route.

Why buy in India?

Buy in India because the estimated landed cost from USA is higher than the India reference price, while local invoice, support, and return handling are simpler.

Why import?

Importing from USA may become worth checking only if the foreign price drops meaningfully, the Indian price rises, or a clean hand-carry route removes most extra risk.
