i3 4010u with nvidia 820m or i3 3110m with nvidia 710m....which is good for gaming and I need a good battery back up too so if the gaming performance of 3110 combo is to be very much greater than 4010 combo then I am likely to choose 3110 with comprises over battery small..............

In all honesty nothing from those options is acceptable for gaming , the 820M is meh in some games on low settings 720p

Those two fit my budget I need best among them I am eve satisfied with low graphics but modern games must be playable @ 30fps if 3110 tends to perform very much greater than 4010 then I will Have compromise on battery life if the differences are little lower I will go with battery life

The i3 4010U with Nvidia 820m combo should give you best of both worlds, since with Nvidia's Battery Boost on 800 series and with a 4th generation CPU which is aimed at efficiency as well as increased performance should give you some more portability than 3rd generation and a 700 series GPU.But benchmarks of i3 3110 are equal to i5 4200u 4th gen

i3-4010U? I used that for gaming for a few months while saving money for my PC, and it was complete and utter garbage. The damn thing struggled to run even Fallout:New Vegas at the lowest possible settings, of course that was with integrated graphics, but you could still tell that the CPU was causing severe lag in certain parts, like when particle effects started, or wind was blowing dirt up, it would lag pretty hard. I'm almost thinking the 3rd gen i3 will be better due to it's higher clock speed, while clock speed isn't everything, 1.7GHz is pretty damn pathetic in this day and age.
Of course, now you get to choose between being bottlenecked by the 4010u, or by the 710m, both are quite bad. Are there any other laptops you're interested in within your budget range? If so, post em' here for us to look over.

Yes, the 4010U will bottleneck even a lowly 820m. That CPU is completely worthless, at least for gaming, IMHO.
I recommend staying as far away as possible from the 4010U, don't even touch it with a 10 foot pole.
