I took a 32" LCD TV (Sony)to India Last month. There is no problem in the airlines to take tv as baggage. You should tell them that you have TV as baggage while taking the boarding pass. In Kochi Airport the customs asked me to show the Original bill. Actually we can take electronic goods of Rs. 25000/- with out paying duty. I spent 2000 riyals for the TV and had to pay only Rs.367/- as duty to the customs. They calculated as the tv costs 26000/- and charged duty for the excess 1000/-. The same model TV costs around 37000/- in India.
My suggestion is buy the TV here but make sure the same model is available in India. [Coz if the model is not available in India it would be hard to get serviced].
