It would have been good if you mentioned your budget but for a beginner dobsonian is a preferred choice to get familiar with the night sky because of its price vs performance ratio..and its always recommended to buy the biggest aperture in your budget but definitely keep in mind the portability as larger tubes tend to be heavy. While you can also start with a EQ mount but the cheaper ones are usually crap which tend to be unstable. In dobsonian you may consider the Celestron Starsense series, or a suitable model from Explore scientific, GSO fitting your budget. Don’t forget to buy some acceptable quality eyepieces and a barlow..I would suggest to look for the SV Bony eyepieces or Celestron omni series if you are on a budget. Tejraj is a reputed seller based in Mumbai. You can browse their website and contact them.
