Should i get myself a car at this age ?

Hi everyone,

I am 21 yo, recently graduated from college. I am going to start my full time job soon. I will get close to 1.3-1.4 lpm post taxes. At the end of my 1st year of work, i will have 25 L in cash.

I come from a middle class family and i am the 1st engineer from my family. I have always wanted to own a car. I have been thinking lately of getting a car in the 10-15 l range after my 1 year of work. I have 2 options, either buy a car in full cash or take loan. I have 2 cars in my mind for now, kia seltos and vw virtus, both fully automatic versions.

Parents are saying to not buy a car and save money, we shall invest that on a 1cr+ flat in next 2 years. Meaning, take a flat, pay some 50l + in down payment and rest as loan. I am not convinced to give significant part of my salary for the flat as i might not be permanently settled in hyd forever, i might shift elsewhere in the coming years.

My long term plan is wealth creation and hit my 1cr nw by i reach 25/26 years of age.

As this sub has financially sound and experienced ppl, i would love to hear your advices.
Many thanks in advance.
