Tata Motors — Engine oil leakage in Newly Purchased Nexon

I purchased Nexon XZ+O petrol on 03052022. Everything was running fine until I noticed some light smoke near the Air Dam with a burning smell. On returning home I examined and found that the engine oil was leaking. My car has clocked 970 kms and yet to undergo 1st service.
I instantly contacted Tata Motors Customer Care twice to get it towed as, whole engine oil has drained and it might seize my engine if I start it, with specific instructions to send proper tow truck and some engine oil to start and reverse the car for towing. To my surprise, the flat bed truck came for towing without engine oil provision. The truck left by saying that, they cannot take away this car, as the steering needs to be activated for loading. Nexon's steering is electronic one, which activates only after engine start. Now, in this case I am stuck, if I start the engine, Tata Motors will disown my car of warranty, as my engine will get seized km absence of oil.
Special Mention - My car is still not showing any engine fault light in the instrument cluster.

The dealer towed away the car on 09062022. He supposedly conducted repairs and changed 'O' ring. Car was handed over to me on 11062022. Today, I again reconfirmed about the leakage and found out that it has started again. This is a sort of betrayal with me by Tata Motors and team. I wish I hadn't bought this car.
