Hi, expect that the Apple Care would work in India, especially if you're purchasing through the Apple Store India version. If purchasing from another country's store, then it's probably a good idea to check with Apple themselves by calling one of their numbers.
Regarding which MBP to purchase, I usually prefer the unit with more RAM. In my opinion, RAM is the factor that makes your computer last the longest. As new OS's come out and apps get more and more features, RAM seems to be the factor that makes or breaks your user experience, especially with respect to processing. For the size of the SSD, that all depends on your storage needs. In the old days, bigger was better, but with Cloud storage and such, that's not always the case anymore. HTH. Later...
