Types of Clothes Dryer Machines in India
Vented

In a vented clothes dryer, moisture is left out in the air via a vent just like in a split AC. Thus you need to place it in rooms with ventilation or outdoors like a balcony. This type of dryer is rare to find now as most companies are avoiding it due to its restrictions and upgraded technology.

Condenser-based

This is the most popular clothes dryer option today in India because of its cost-effectiveness, quick drying, and good performance. Here, moisture is thrown as condensed water via a tray or an outlet. You will need a ventilated room for this as well, as sometimes it heats up the room. This is because it uses more heat to dry comparatively. It takes a lot less time to dry clothes comparatively.

Heat-Pump

The heat-pump cloth dryer uses a lower temperature of hot air to dry or in-short uses recirculated heat. Thus it takes a lot of time to dry clothes but is great at power saving. Also, your clothes remain in overall shape for a longer time due to the gentle process of drying here. One more benefit is that you can use it in an enclosed room. On the downside, it is a costly machine.

Drying Time

The Drying Time depends on the number of clothes, modes, and other settings you apply for use. It also depends on the machine’s the motor and processing cycle performance. As you can see below is the reason why Condenser clothes dryer type is the best-preferred option by many users. However, if your use is very high then the heat-pump type is recommended due to energy savings and better gentle care.

Excellent stuff mate.
You have put a great effort in collecting the options and sharing it with the community.

On the product side personally I feel washer dryer combo is a better option.

I think those are better in terms of space saving, time to transfer the clothes from machine to dryer and convenience of wifi operation to control the machine.

LG, Samsung, IFB have some very good models

True. However, today many are stuck with only washers, and buying a washer dryer is quite expensive compared to only dryer. Also, dedicated dryers work well in rainy seasons. That's the reason!

Having bought both combinations, one for myself which is LG 10.5 / 7.0 kg Washer+Dryer combo and one for my mom at my hometown which is IFB 6KG Senator series front load + IFB TurboDry 550 dryer, I can confidently say that don't go for combo unless you have space constraint which was true in my case.

The LG combo works great but you can either wash or dry and this was OK for me but not OK for my mom for reasons I'm not aware of lol

With LG combo you don't have to worry about cleaning the lint filter after every dry cycle as there is none while with IFB stand alone dryer you got to clean the lint filter after every dry cycle.

IFB's stand alone dryer can be kept on top of their front load washing machines, can be wall mounted and can be installed upside down in both configurations. 

Cost wise, both standalone and combo will cost you nearly the same if you are looking for higher capacities.

Is IFB dryer a vented one or a condenser type? Thanks. The price tells me it should be a vented dryer.
