Yes, that's better but do not opt for Jeeves protection. Many brands offer extended warranty at the time of purchase but it varies with seller.

yes I just ordered, chose Dell 2Y additional warranty while ordering from Flipkart. Costed around ₹3.3k. In total, I will have 3Y warranty right?

I don't know about Servify, but please double check the type of warranty before proceeding.
Dell generally offers two-three tiers of warranty (pro support plus is the highest tier which includes NBD service at home and covers accidental damage)
I think it's basic warranty (first tire, without ADP) for hardware issues, I verified the same price for additional 2Y in Dell website as well.
Basic warranty I think requires you to go to the service centre and give your laptop.
If the price difference between Basic and Pro Support (Pro Support is one level below Pro Support Plus) isn't too much, I'd recommend taking PS. You get access to relatively better technical staff, and they'll send an engineer home who will replace stuff in front of you.
Premium support price is almost 2x, Premium plus is 3.5x of basic one.

Yes, it's onsite warranty for 1+2 years without ADP.
Quite a difference then.
Not sure if it helps, but if you can, check whether an offline Dell Store can offer better pricing on warranty.
There might be more room for negotiation on a brand new machine.
Cheaper consumer grade Dells almost always tend to break down early- the hinge is usually one of the first to go, followed by the charging port. Trackpad issues and internal heating often follows and poor internal cooling can lead to mobo failure.
40WH battery also means one is pretty much guaranteed to replace it within a year (low charging cycles means 1 hour-ish battery life within a year if you're a moderately heavy user)

Will check now, thanks...

@aayusharyan Despite having a GPU this laptop weighs just 1.8 kg. If you can get the MS office from elsewhere go with the base variant.
Display is the best in this segment.

@pjain2712 Can you tell me how to add the extended warranty from Dell, there's only Jeeves warranty option?

The color of the laptop and keyboard looks odd to me, nothing extraordinary. Go for asus expertbook p1 in this price range.
Try from Flipkart mobile app, it will show Dell one at the extreme right under protection plan (it's kind of hit or miss). If it doesn't show keep checking multiple times. When I checked on website, Dell one didn't show up at all.
