Do go for secound hand car, until unless you get a car with good condition.. because aftr buying you'll end up spending lot of money for repairs , extra servicing etc etc..

What is your budget?

like

Around 3L

If you are living in the same area for so long and you are good at driving can buy the car.

But if it's your first-time( it looks like), go with the second hand car(around 3 lpa) u can get good ones and then after 1.5 years buy a new car.

One of my friend's frnd(colleague) bought a car from a known contact only like his senior's contact selling car.
So he approached the owner directly.

I will say go for the trustworthy one who will take responsibility if something happens.
Sometimes ppl sell theft car, or car which is involved in some criminal cases. So keep that in mind and buy from well known shop (online/offline)

Depends upon your financial condition. Also this depends upon your choice. But if you know driving then go for new one. If you don't know the driving go for old one whatever your financial condition. Many of my friends buy old cars and they are happy.

Like most people here are saying, if you know driving then get a new one. Use the budget you have as down payment and get a new car. If you don't know driving, you can learn from driving school and get a licence.
Buying a 2nd hand car will come with its own set of problems and you might end up paying more to fix them.
I did the same thing, first got my license and then a car.

Thanks everyone for valuable suggestions!
I still have to learn driving so will look for second hand trusted one
