DPP-4 inhibitors are considered weight neutral and have generally been shown to improve other cardiovascular risk factors, including low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, and blood pressure.
Linagliptin is most effective in the inhibition of enzyme as compared to other DPP-4 inhibitors.

Not a huge difference between the drugs. Linagliptin is safe in kidney failure also. Otherwise no big difference.
Tenegliptin is not FDA approved but cheaper - so used commonly in India .
Sita / vilda and Lina are approved by FDA
