Picking the right size
Twelve seats suit a group of 9 to 12. If you are exactly 12 with large suitcases, consider the 14 seater so the last row is not full of bags.
12 seater vs other options
At ₹30/km, a full 12 seater works out cheaper per head than the 9 seater on the same trip, because the same rate is split among more people. For 13 or more, step up to the 14 or 17 seater.
