First of all anyone charging you 18K for a windows laptop repair is ripping you off. Especially if it was bought at 27K.
Now I cannot diagnose your laptop based on a post on the internet. But I can tell you this. I have had board level repairs done on a Dell laptop to repair a faulty graphics IC which was a SMD and that cost me only 2.5K Inr!!
I have replaced the 15″ screen of a 10–12 year old fujitsu laptop for my cousin at just 3800 INR!!
So laptop repairs should not cost that much unless they are changing the entire motherboard or something like that. In which case it is better to buy a new laptop instead. There are a lot of these fly by night operators fleecing customers as very few people have knowledge about computer hardware and even less about laptops.
My trusted hardware vendor is located in Bangalore and it would be a lot cheaper for you to ship the laptop to him, get it repaired and then have it shipped back even if you pay the cost of shipping.
If possible you can reply back in the comments with a description of whats wrong with your laptop, the details on the make and model and maybe a few pics. Also where are you located?
In a worst case scenario, my laptop repair vendor can help you get a high quality business class refurbished I5 laptop with SSD for about 30K. I have helped scores of friends and family source refurbished laptops (business class - dell lattitude or Thinkpads) from him for their kids online classes during lockdown and there have been zero complaints!! And all these laptops were in the 26–36K INR range. And all of these were I5 with SSD. You wont get new laptops with SSD and I5 processor for anything less than 55/60K INR.
This is the vendors business and contact details scanned from one of the bills.
One of the very few people in this line of work who runs a honest setup. I rarely ever give personal guarantees but I can do so for Mr Abhay and his business.
