After looking at all responses, I am happy, infact very happy to note that my i10 is giving me excellent FE. I am not sure, if I do something extraordinarily different driving the most of us. So looks like my case is an exception and I am not complaining about it! :-).
Yes, I am light footed, anticipate traffic to use minimal brakes. Also, thankfully and touchwood, I have been able to manage my work timings so as to avoid peak traffic hours. I also ensure that I fill petrol from a particular petrol pump and use IFTEX addatives every time I do a tankful.

@Sankar - Personally, i10 (Kappa or iRDE) is better option than Maruti Astar. However, would strongly suggest you to have test drive of Astar and i10 and take a final decision.

takecare and drive slowly
