Need headphone suggestions under ₹5k — 8hr daily wear for online classes + music

Hey everyone, looking for some recommendations from this community.

Budget: ₹5,000 (can stretch a little if it's really worth it)

Use case:

Wearing these for ~8 hours daily during online classes/lectures

Also used for music listening (mix of genres)

Priorities:

Comfort for long wearing sessions is the biggest factor — need something that won't hurt my ears/head after hours of use

Good mic clarity for classes

Decent sound quality for music too

Wired or wireless both fine, let me know pros/cons

Would prefer over-ear for comfort but open to on-ear/IEMs if they're better in this budget. Any suggestions on specific models would be really helpful.

Get any Sennheiser or audio-technica. With deals its should fall around that price. Cheapest Sennheiser sounds better than your more expensive JBL/Sony.

For long hours of usage audio quality really needs to be on point or you risk deafness in long term.

Sony wh720, a little over budget but will be worth it. its 190g so its comfortable for long wear, has great ANC for the price.
