Well, the Galaxy S21 plus is 72k, which is the same as the iPhone 12.
Thats quite a stretch from the 60k.

Is the budget extendable?

Yeah, I can stretch it to around 70k if i really have to. Exynos on the s21+ worries me though, I have heard only bad things about them.

At that budget and when open with either of iOS/android, always go for iPhone. Crazy resale value, solid build and exceptional performance. Only issue is iOS related restrictions but if that works, get the latest iphone with the max memory in your budget.
Samsung phones have a very poor resale value and crazy inflated prices in India when getting exynos. S21 with SD is discounted in USA when even today it's priced like a new phone in India. Also, I've always preffered Note series over S series as it has better resale value.

Samsung galaxy s20 FE 5G, available now at amazon for around 42k with bank discount. Solid phone. Keep the rest of your money and thank me later.

If the purchase is urgent, buy the S20 FE 5G which would cost you ₹40,499 effectively on Amazon if you have ICICI CC.
Or else wait for S21 FE 5G.
Save up rest of the money.
