I want to buy a TT racket but don't know which one i should buy. I am currently using Stag Power Drive Plus. I am kind of beginner level player. My budget is around 2000-4000 INR.

Have a look through Iskander's "Training Rubbers" thread for some cheap rubber options viewtopic.php?f=44&t=25211

Get a cheap all round blade, you don't need anything fast or with carbon in it. The Sanwei M8 gets good reviews for a cheap entry level blade. Ive never used one but for INR 500 you cant go wrong.

Getting a cheaper blade and rubbers from more recognizable names like DHS, Yasaka and Donic will probably cost about INR 5000

the OP sounds like they are describing a pre-made, so essentially ANY non-pre made would be an upgrade. The sanwei blade is decent. I have no idea on the price based on that currency.

There are good pre-mades, but they're from the likes of Sanwei, DHS or Yinhe and you find them on AliExpress (or Amazon, or Shopee). Avoid the ones you find in department stores, even if they have brand names like Butterfly, Donic or Stiga - these are usually way too heavy and too slow. Above all - avoid Double Fish or anything you find in Mr. DIY.

Good option - The Sanwei Accumulator S, I recommended above, is a newer/upgraded version of the M8... T88 rubbers offer really good control.

I'd go with this. I play with that blade and I like it better than pretty much everything else I have tried.
