It should be considered a Desktop PC.
But, given its shape you could say its a monitor (if that is not obvious; if you dont carry in original box) and try to pass it off that way.
The issue is that most Customs people are pretty smart these days and wont be taken for fools, especially if your port of entry/ customs checking is a major city.
You are better off trying to be polite / nice to them, and make some excuse and say its an older machine that you brought home for your parents since you dont use it anymore.
Basically, be nice or look up the above customs rates and prepare to fork out the duty.. which will make it not worthy of bringing back.
PS: You did not mention whether you live/ work there or just went for a holiday/ business trip.
If someone was returning / migrating back, they could bring it back under TOR - Transfer of Residence, probably incur lesser or no duty (Which I have done before when I moved back from the US).
