Welcome to IFG Chetanmayekar :D
IHP25 in 0.177 cal will be the better option within your budget and shooting space available . moreover your son too can handle ihp25 as its weight is less compared to others and you dont need licence for buying/using 'airguns'.
you can buy it from aimco http://aimco.co.in/ihp-m25-air-rifle or from local armoury shops (price will be lower or higher).

At Rs 4600, I found the SDB 65 to be a powerful and accurate 0.22 rifle ordered online from http://www.kovibazaar.com/

Not suitable for 8 year olds.

A suggestion.... if your kid wants to shoot, you cock and hold the gun. Never let him aim and shoot by himself (anyway an 8 year old cocking and shooting a spring piston AR needs to be named Kal El!!).

If you are looking at IHP as a entry level air gun then SDB 65 is better in .22, moreover as bennedose has found out the rifle's tastes for pellets are humble.

I have both , National 25 and SDB45.
N25 is very easy to operate due to less weight and soft cocking.It is a nice rifle.
But when it comes to consistency, accuray and power....SDB by far stands out.
For an eight year old boy...none matches a National 25.
