Counted from OpenStreetMap on 19 August 2026 inside a box 15 km either side of the city centre — not the administrative city, which on a large one reaches well past that. These are counts of what drivers have mapped, not a survey of the city: a station that sells diesel but carries no diesel tag is not in the diesel number. If something is missing, open the map and it can be fixed.

Chennai is served by IndianOil (headquartered nearby historically), HPCL, BPCL, Nayara and Jio-bp stations along GST Road, OMR and the Inner Ring. As India's auto-manufacturing hub, the city has growing EV charging along OMR's IT corridor. CNG arrived recently and coverage is still thin.

Local tips

  • OMR and GST Road have the most modern, least crowded stations.
  • CNG is newer here than in Delhi. Check station locations before converting plans.
  • Monsoon flooding (Oct–Dec) can close low-lying pumps; keep the tank up in season.

Only 19 of the 187 stations mapped in Chennai say whether they sell diesel. The rest probably do; nobody has recorded it. See Chennai on the map →

Open the map and see what is actually there

Looking costs nothing and needs no account. Any status a driver confirms carries the time it was made; where nobody has, the map says that instead of guessing, so you can decide for yourself how much to trust it.

Why Refuelia

The only honest map of fuel & EV — worldwide

Where there’s really fuel and a really working charger, right now. Prices come from drivers — someone types in what they actually paid, so it is real, timestamped, and missing until somebody posts it. We never invent a number. Fuel and EV together, worldwide, free.

What a pin can say

Fuel available
a driver confirmed it, and the card says when
Limited fuel
some grades out, or a queue at the pump
No fuel
somebody stood there and told us
Open by its timetable
the posted hours say open. Nobody has checked
No fresh report
and the map says so, rather than guessing

Every other map draws the first one and stops. The last two are the point: when nobody has checked, this map says nobody has checked, instead of guessing green.
