What that mileage & age mean

By this mileage the brake fluid and spark plugs should already have been replaced. Ask for the bills, not just a verbal yes.
At around 6 years and 49,000 km it's in its middle life, the service history matters more than the number on the clock. Look for consistent, on-time servicing and no long gaps.

Where to look hardest on a Tata Tiago

AMT: a short pause on each shift is normal. A long hesitation, a jerky pull-away or trouble selecting a gear points to clutch or actuator wear.
Turbo petrol: watch for blue smoke on a cold start and listen for a whistle or a loss of boost. Regular oil changes matter more on a turbo engine, so read the service record for them.
Whatever the paperwork says, check the reading on the clock against the service and insurance records, an odometer can be wound back and the dashboard alone won't show it.

Is the odometer genuine?

The typical Tata Tiago on sale here reads about 49,000 km. A reading well below that for the year is worth a second look: one car we inspected read 86,273 km against 1,61,174 km in its own service history. InspektAI verifies the real kilometres against ECU, service and insurance records as a paid add-on, so you buy on the true number.
