To clarify further (as of date), only LG Cinema 3D and Panasonic ET5 use passive 3D. The rest of the 3D TV world in India uses active 3D.
what about Toshiba 3D TV??
Don't they use passive tech

Yeah...but they are all set to launch their passive tech in the time to come.
They revealed their passive tech at the CES this year.
i have samsung es 6200 (2012 yr model) & earlier i had d6000sr (2011 model) & 3D in the latest model is much much improved than the earlier model. I got this new model as a replacement for my old faulty model.
I could not enjoy 3D on earlier model as the 3D effects werent much good to impress however 3d was an added feature in a 46" screen tv & i was looking for a 46 inches screen. Few weeks back i watched Avengers 3D & it was awesome. Though for initial 5 mins there was a bit strain but then i did not realized anything.
3D on a 32 screen may not do good. You should atleast have a 46-55 screen
You can't bet on the future. You said same thing about plasma. Technology changes over period. For that matter Passive 3D may become outdated tomorrow. Every year new models are introduced that provide good (if not significant) advantages/features over today's model. Just because tomorrows TV will be passive 3D does it mean that the TV you buy today will stop performing?
Buy based on the following factors:
- scope your budget
- identify the models that fit in that budget
- look for features that are important
- disregard features that are just eye candy
- demo! demo! demo!
- buy TV because of PQ and not 3D
3D should be the least important factor. Why? Because, true and full 3D is available on blu-ray only. True 3D has full HD frame and the delta for each eye. If you are going to buy/rent 3D BD's then that 3D TV is important. If you are going to download (typically half SBS mkv's), they have half resolution per frame. Point is, don't spend sleepless night on 3D. Let PQ alone be the deciding factor.

As I already advised you, take a look at the Sony Bravia HX750. That's the best 2D/3D performer in your budget. The biggest difference being superior motion performance in 2D as well as 3D. It also has very little ghosting/crosstalk

I think you are mistaken. Sony doesn't offer any magic remote, only LG does.
And this set comes with 2 3D glasses in the box.
When did I ever say that half-SBS is not watchable? I said that half-SBS is half resolution vertically (960x1080). What I also said that full 3D BD is frame packed at full resolution (1920x1080). When such 3D material is sourced to 3D TV, TV automatically detects 3D signal and if set so, will switch to 3D mode autmatically.As said, 3D shall be only a complementary factor on buying a TV. But I did not agree with that half sbs 3Ds are not watchable. TV viewing is a highly personalised matter. I have downloaded a few IMAX 3Ds (around 1 GB each ) and watched it on my new 43E490. It was perfectly enjoyable. May be a 3D BRD may give better pictures. But HSBS still watchable and I found no need to download the full hd behemoths to enjoy 3D. I am yet to wach a cinema on 3D. May be a cinema require full HD to enjoy it fully.
what about the extended warranties from Samsung and LG??
For 32" 3 years warranty 1+2 yrs extended
Samsung - Rs.6510 + taxes & VAT
LG - Rs. 7500 approx
Sony - Rs.2000 all inclusive.

I don't know, you should ask Samsung and LG that.
Possibly because Sony has more confidence on their products that they are unlikely to break. Hence able to offer extended warranty at lower cost. They perhaps know that they will never have to service an item during that period and they can pocket the entire amount as extra revenue.What makes LG and Samsung to go so costly as compared to Sony??
I have now a 3D BDP (Pana BDT220), true 3D source (Hugo 3D BD) and downloaded HSBS content (Avatar 3D, Smurfs 3D, Tron Legacy 3D, etc.). Hugo 3D is definitely better.
