Thanks for correcting me!
Slightly confused. Beyond Whitefield Honda towards ITPL (it is not Old Madras Road) there is a Shell and an HPCL before Phoenix Market City; and towards city (away from ITPL) near the confluence of ORR and Old Madras Road there is an IOCL. Did you mean the latter one? Or is there another IOCL COCO hiding in this area?

Edit: There is another IOCL if you took the ORR from Whitefield Honda towards Marathahalli; beyond the Mahadevpura junction and Durga Rainbow Apartment on the service road. That definitely doesn't look COCO to me.

Just before this HPCL pump there is an IOCL (when heading towards ITPL, on the same side). Hope this time it is clear

Thanks. Never noticed it, probably because I invariably take the left turn immediately after this HPCL and join ORR at Mahadevpura and vice versa too.

Even I have not noticed this bunk . A colleague of mine who stays nearby says there is a new bunk open, guess it is the same one.

Sorry if this is late, but I only saw your post only today when I was retracing the posts on this thread.

The one next to Maharaja hotel signal is known to be a fraudster by most local people in S T Bed Layout. They even tried to cheat me soon after they opened up a few years ago. A tell tale sign is that hardly any vehicles go there. Their air filling machine has never worked the few times I have been there.

Most of the people I know fill gas from the IOCL COCO outlet just before the Koramangala bus depot when heading towards NGV.

There are complaints about the attendants at this particular IOC COCO bunk.

Re: Trusted Petrol Pumps in Bangalore

I have been filling up from the BPCL outlet on 8th Main Rd, Malleshwaram (Next to the CCD) and have found the quality of their petrol to be consistently good. A decade back this was a pump you would avoid at all costs but they seem to have managed to turn the place around.
They have a nitrogen filler too but I seemed to be erratic the one time I used it.

Trusted Petrol Pumps in Bangalore

Police and a large crowd gathered in front of the IOC bunk in front of Purva vantage on 19 Main HSR layout. Locals tell me that they shortfilled and were caught red handed.

Today, the HP attendant at HSR bda corner tried to pull the credit card distraction with me. Suddenly, the pump showed 400 Rs and stopped. He then started to fill in again. I politely asked him for the receipt for the 400 Rs. Gave me a blank stare and then charged me for the second fill only. Speaking in Kannada helped, I guess.

This the bunk which sell diesel 50p less than market place right? I guess this is the first time there is a negative report about this bunk.

This is a regular issue with this bunk I guess. A friend of mine too mentioned the similar incident which happened to him at this bunk. I remember a post on this thread earlier mentioning the same.

With the other IOC bunk, located next to Agara bus depot too getting bad reviews I guess the only bunk left in this area is the BP bunk near HSR police station. Any reviews about the same?
