first of all PC's are not allowed without the bill. Take gfx out it ,may damage other components.

I would say that remove it all and leave the cabinet here, purchase a new one there and enjoy.

Since you dont have money it makes no point suggesting you to buy one.
There is no harm done to components in traveling if done properly, especially the harddisk.
You got to remember this; each and every component has come traveling all the way from China or Taiwan to India and adding a few kms on them isnt going to damage them.
Just make sure you take off the graphic card and the harddrive and wrap it in static free plastic bag and then some good padded case.
Rest you can leave the motherboard on the Cabinet along with the CPU.Only make sure you havent attached a heavy weight third party heatsink to CPU .
The normal company attached heatsink should be fine.
Rest is ok.Have fun and travel safe.
