Yup , i am calculating on the same travel area and driving techniques . Cause the only place i go will be from house to school.. and the road i take are all the same .
I calculate by pumping full tank and when it appear E i go to the petrol station and pump . Receipt will show the amount of petrol pump , so i took the amount divide by the amount of distance travelled .

how do u know it's full? when the pump nozzle automatically shuts off or you actually look into the tank when u pump? looking into the tank until u see the petrol level is almost to the brink is a better indicator if its full cuz sometimes the nozzle will shut off w/o any reason.
anyways, it seems u have lost quite some mileage there. was the car new or used 6mths ago? r u using the same engine oil?

Any change in driving patterns? (Rough acceleration etc)
Also, check your tyre pressure and inflate it accordingly. (My fuel consumption for my car dropped from 8.5km/l to 7.6km/l and this were due to the tyres itself.)
Would be best if you could send the car in to your workshop for a diagnostic check - radiator coolant, fan belt, exhaust leak etc.
Although your car is new I understand - you can never be too sure about such things.
Good luck mate!v

Oops - wanted to add in this but forgot.
It's not necesary to use the top end engine oil for your axio too.
You may want to try considering Bizol.
But my advice to everyone here - if your engine is older than 3 years onwards, try avoiding using those off shelf oil which cost $30/4 litires. This will result in the burning of the oil due to its "thin-ness".
