Diesel is about 10Rs cheaper per litre than Petrol so if you are driving a lot of kms you could consider the 530d. However, it will also be harder to find a petrol station that sells diesel in central Bombay. Also outside of the metropolitan areas you might have trouble with low quality diesel. All things considered I would probably go with the 530i.
