Need help choosing the best IEM under ₹3,000

I'm looking for my first IEM and have a hard budget of ₹3,000, so I'm trying to make the best possible choice and avoid upgrading again too soon.

My three main priorities are:

🎵 Good sound quality – I mostly listen to calm/soothing music, but also enjoy hip hop, rock, and bass-heavy songs sometimes. I’d like something balanced but still fun when needed.

🎮 Competitive gaming – Mainly Valorant and PUBG and story games sometimes.

🎤 Good microphone – I need a decent mic for Discord/in-game voice chat. Detachable or inline mic is fine, as long as voice clarity is good.

I'll be using it with my Samsung S23 FE, laptop, and PC. USB-C would be convenient since my phone doesn't have a headphone jack, but I’m also open to using a dongle or adapter if it improves sound quality.

What would you recommend under ₹3,000 for these priorities? 

Would especially appreciate recommendations from people who have actually used the product they're suggesting.
