They run together up to ₹18.59L, where the Tekton tops out. Past that only the Alcazar has anything left to sell you, up to ₹21.10L.
Only one of them takes the whole party: the Alcazar seats 7, the Tekton 5.

Same money, which car?
Take ₹18.59L to both showrooms and you come out with the Alcazar Prestige at ₹18.03L or the Tekton Tekna+ at ₹18.59L, the Alcazar leaving ₹0.56L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.56L more for the Tekton Tekna+: level 2 (full suite) ADAS, 360° camera and blind spot monitor. The useful extras on top: 6-way powered driver seat and drive modes. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- Only the Hyundai Alcazar seats 7, worth knowing if you need the space
- The Tekton swallows the most luggage at 518 litres
- Also on the Tekton Tekna+: tyre pressure monitor, ventilated front seats, front parking sensors and driver display (10.25" digital against Semi-digital), and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Tekton Tekna+, you give up touchscreen (10.25" against 10.1"), third-row AC vents and wireless phone charger, which the Alcazar Prestige keeps
- Choose the Hyundai Alcazar Prestige if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.56L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Nissan Tekton Tekna+ if
- You will do long stints in this car and want the daily comforts
