My verdicts
Adidas
AeroVortexGlide
At ₹2,000 this is an Adidas I really like for absolute beginners who want one shoe for walking, gym, occasional jogging and casual wear. It is not for serious runners, and I place it at B-, between B and C.
Avoid if: You have weak ankles or calves, overpronate, or run faster than 6:00/km or more than 10 km.

Supernova Ease 2
I would not recommend this shoe for running at all, and launching it at ₹10,000 is highway robbery. Buy it only as a premium walking shoe, and for running spend about ₹1,000 more on a proper trainer like the Supernova Rise 3.
Avoid if: You want a shoe for running, even at the ₹4,500 sale price.
