A big "THANK YOU!" to Wildon for sharing this info; and to the Mods for making it even more easier to access!
Just now visited the showroom to see my car before registration; PDI checklist and the TATA vin decoder in hand!

Wildon - can you please get me as much detail as possible on this VW Vento VIN please. My friend is picking this up tomorrow.

I could make out this is a model year 2012 car made in Jun 2012. However would like to see the full report, if you don't mind please.
