I want to choose between the Curvv and the Seltos. My preferences are reliability, low maintenance, good road presence, a good sound system, good mileage, safety, and an automatic transmission. My average running is 6,000 km annually, with 90% city and 10% highway use.

The Kia Seltos is the more wholesome pick. It's larger, roomier, better equipped and feels more premium than the Tata Curvv. Measuring over 4.5m in length, the latest Seltos is also quite substantial in size and correspondingly scores well for road presence. Higher-spec versions pack in a Bose sound system, though the JBL unit on the Curvv delivers a more satisfying audio experience.  
For your city-centric usage, the Seltos 1.5 petrol NA with the IVT gearbox is a great choice. The gearbox is super smooth and enables seamless power delivery. The new Seltos doesn't have a crash test rating as yet, but does come with a long list of standard safety features, such as front and rear disc brakes, stability control, Isofix child seat mounts and more.
