All engines consume oil. The quantum depends on engine size and running conditions. I haven't noticed any oil leak as such and the engine sounds fine. The exhaust at start-up too is fine. As some of you said, it may be that there may be a barely noticeable leak. I shall ask the dealer to check at the next service. Thanks to all of you for your replies. And yes the grade is 20W40.
