It's almost been a year since I updated this thread.
Anyways the scooter is doing fine and has roughly completed about 23500kms. The usage has dropped significantly since I'm in college and it is mainly used by my younger brother who uses it for going to school and coaching.
I have changed the oil from Hero Genuine 4T to Motul Technosynthese 10w30 JASO MA and then to HP MAK LUBRICANTS 10W30 JASO MB. I'm also going to try Castrol Scooter oil and Honda's Engine Oil.
My review of Motul Technosynthese-
The oil was only used for 1000kms. So this review is based on how the scooter behaved during this period. The day oil went in I noticed the engine wasn't as smooth as it should have been. Came back home and realised the oil level was much higher than max level. Immediately drained the excess oil and the performance was back to normal. But one thing that I noticed was the excess oil had already turned black(just after 50kms of usage). So I was confused whether it was a fake oil or it was cleaning the engine. Decided to use it and only later I founded the magic of motul. The engine was super smooth even at 60kmph which was never seen before. Cold starts were not a problem anymore. Performance was good and had increased a bit. Though I was not able to check the high speed performance I found that it was great for city use. Engine heat was also well controlled. Overall I founded the oil to be impressive and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to keep their engine last longing.

HP MAK LUBRICANTS SCOOTER OIL- Did a little bit of research and found out that this oil is good and is also less expensive than the motul one. Decided to try one. Got one for myself and got the oil in. The oil is still new thus cannot comment on it but what I felt that the oil is good for it's price. Even this oil was overfilled and after draining the excess out I found even this one had turned black(after 80kms of use). The performance is satisfactory and will update the thread as soon as I get my hands again on my ride.
Also I have changed my Air filter and spark plugs at 21805kms and the rear tyre at 22680. The rear tyre is MRF NYLOGRIP ZAPPER N4 90/100. Cost was 1250 for the tubless one. Was thinking to put Michelin City Pro 90/100 but thought that being a soft compound tyre it might not last long.
Also replaced the battery and the Voltage Rectifier and the light diminishing problem resolved.
