    Reading from various sources , i have concluded that related backlinks and having the keyword as text of the incoming links are very important for a site`s SERP ..

    Incoming links from related sites is a very important part of off page SEO..

    I would like to know if i have got many related backlinks for my site .. when will google update these backlinks for my site so that they can play a role in getting higher SERP?

    Google updates the backlinks internally all the time. It only updates the backlinks it shows on a link:www.domain.com query a few times a year.

    The links you gain will be working for you even if you can't see them.

    And I think that relevant backlinks are the most important off-site aspect of seo.

    Did you mean to say?
    Relevant Anchor text only helps in getting a better SERP?
    If its not related we won't achieve better SERP?

    'Non related' links do contribute something to a page's position in the serps by virtue of the pr that they pass, if nothing else.

    Here is one Proof that Non Related Anchor Text can also Get you a Good SERP :)

    Site: www.studydirect.info

    Anchor text : Search Anywhere (Not related even 1%)

    Result: http://www.google.com/search?q=search+anywhere&hl=en&lr=&start=10&sa=N

    No#11 out of 269000000
    I was at No#4 Till last week between Msn & Yahoo Links

    If you place the link in many places with same anchor text relevant or not it will get you a Better SERP.
    Although this is what i get from my tests.
    Maybe iam wrong.
