Check the engine oils thread. U have 4 available options in fully synthetic oils -

Castrol Power 1 Raving 10W40 for Rs 750
Motul 300V Factory Line 5W40 for Rs 700
AGIP Racing 4T Fully Synthetic 5W40 for Rs 620
Petronas Sprinta 4T 5000 10W40 for Rs ~450

All are good and Petronas at that price is worth it fully.

2700kms completed power 1 is still going strong, the oil has lost its colour marginally not much, lets see how much its last for.

The power 1 racing lasted for 5200kms changed over to power 1 racing on aug 2008 and drained it in mar 2009, the oil level was never low it was 900 ml opened the drain bolt at 11pm and slept and checked it 8:30 next morning.

Must say full value for money.
