Eight to twelve year old hatchbacks in fair to good condition, typically with two or more previous owners. Alto, WagonR, Santro, i10 and older Swift examples make up most of the supply.

Undisclosed accident repair and odometer tampering are common. So is buying a car with limited legal life remaining — always check the date of first registration, and in Delhi NCR check it against the diesel and petrol age limits before anything else.
