Prices for electronics items are largely the same worldwide nowadays - the maximum you can save is the difference in GST. And the cheapest offers often only have local warranty, which does not help you if an Indian-bought computer breaks in Singapore (or vice versa).

I think the warranty issues is more important than the (probably small) price difference.
Therefore, I would buy a computer where I intend to use it, or get international warranty.
