Accessories (or essentials) I am planning to get fitted from dealer itself are:-
saurabh... are you a Tata employee by any chance? that 10k corporate discount was for Tata employees the last that I head of...

However I think you are probably better off getting the accessories from outside. Showrooms are not the best of the places to get these fitted. They unnecessarily overcharge you. Let me guess... did the dealer tell you something like you can encash the discount against accessories? Thats the oldest trick in the books.

Do not look at Autocop and similar such as any protecting device. At best they are handy central locking system. thats it. For protection get a good gear lock or pedal locks maybe.

I have Minda-Huf FortKnox in my car. Pretty good I would say for the limited purpose that they serve. Actually most of them are similar. Just check the distance from which the lock can be activated/deactivated. Also, ensure that it covers 5+1... that is 4 doors, the hatch and the bonnet. Typically the installers cut corners by not installing for the hatch or the bonnet.

Lastly, avoid things like touch sensors, motion detectors and such hi-fi sounding things. They leave you to grieve for eternity after some time.
