I appreciate everyone who answered by previous question on the laptop which i bought in USA to make it work in India. I thank you all for your answers.
I highly appreciate if you can answer me the following questions as well:
1. The AC adapter of my DELL Latitude Laptop has the following configuration:
***********************************************
INPUT: AC 100-240V ~1.5A(1,5A)
50-60HZ
OUTPUT: DC 19.5V(19,5V) 4.62A(4,62A)
***********************************************
Does the above configuration mean that i can use the AC adapter for my laptop (which i bought in USA) for Indian Power supply as well? If not, then do i have to buy Step-down transformer? What other options do i have(i mean, what is the safest and the best option available for me)

2. Some say that since the configuration of the AC adapter for my laptop(as can be seen above) matches Indian as well as US config for power supply, i need not buy any step-up transformer to work in India. Is that true?

1. yes, plug it in. Might need the correct plug on the end of the cord

2. Yes, true, Mac switched to auto switching power supplies in 1990, and most other makers shortly after...

Since most power supplies for laptops are designed to work on 100 to 240 volts, all you need is to convert the plug type on the part that plugs into the wall.

Several companies make these adapters.

It should work for your Indian battery as well. but you should look at the battery to make sure it has the same input as the plug.
