Go for it guys!!!

Shell happens to be nearest and trusted outlet from my place.
The dealing of staff is nothing to write about home especially with premium price per liter.
The cash card is a great value.
But they are going away from it. The balance has to be exhausted by March 15, 2020.

I have been to Shell twice with attendants attitude not so positive.
I have once tried Bharat Petroleum (Ekvira Petroleum) on Solapur Road.
Car seems to behave fine and will be able to know about quantity in next tankful.
The challenge is space here and getting in/out of pump with mind boggling traffic. Never mind

Any pumps nearby Kharadi or Camp will do too.

Thanks in advance.

Agree with your points about the Shell one in Mundwa.

I am a regular at the BP opposite to Magarpatta main gate. Find them decent.

I regularly use the HP Pump diagonally opposite Dorabjees on Moledina Road. Never ever had an issue with them (besides the normal 5 minute queue on some occasions), they are very friendly and polite. Also easy to use and pull in and out whichever direction you are travelling, as you can do a legal u-turn at either of the traffic lights on both sides.

The Shell pump at the start of the Kharadi bypass (road connecting Nagar and Solapur highways) on Nagar road side has reopened for business now. Have you tried that?

Perhaps I have missed to see it in real life.
Will give it a try when I am nearby Kharadi and needle is approaching 'E'
Thanks!

Adding for Wanowarie/NIBM/Cloud9/Kondhwa area,

Trusted
1) Vilas Petroleum (IOCL) behind Cloud9 complex - courteous staff who look after everything perfectly and an even courteous owner who cares for his customers.
2) Kedari Petrol Pump (BPCL) - Good Service, but long queues (especially on weekends) and small size.

Do Not Trust
1) IOCL near Kadnagar Chowk on the left side towards NIBM - extremely bad service & rude attendants.

There are two new pumps that have opened on Baner road and NCL/Pashan Road. Both are BPCL - COCO Pumps - but interestingly the proceeds from both these pumps (Profits) will go to the Pune Police Welfare Fund!
Staff is really nice, enough stations that it doesn't really get crowded. Some staff are Ex-Maharashtra Police.

I trust the HP petrol pump at Bavdhan, opposite Maratha Mandir. Been filling up at that place for a number of years now. I also used the Shell pump near Bhugaon. But interestingly, I was told at the time of my Creta purchase that I should avoid using Shell diesel as that could lead to DPF related issues.

Thanks for sharing, will utilize one soon.
Google maps shows 3 outlets in that area, it could be just a positioning error in maps.

Came across a newly opened Shell pump in Hinjewadi, just before Embassy Quadron IT Park.
Good news for folks travelling to the far end of Phase II or Phase III.

You can find out which IOC pumps in PCMC have XP95 from this link:

https://associates.indianoil.co.in/PumpLocator/

If you try any of them, please update here whether they are good or not

[oilmonkey]

Thank you for the link will try and update this thread with the bunks I try out.

Uday Fuel Services - It’s on Service road in Jeevan Nagar, Tathawade and has been always reliable for refuels is the one I recommend.

In the recent past, have visited this IOCL pump on the Hinjewadi Phase 1 main road, couple of times for the XP95 petrol, but the attendant politely says the XP95 tank got empty "just a while ago":-



Any other suggestions for guaranteed XP95 or Speed 97 availability in/around Warje-Hinjewadi route?

Not in the area you have mentioned, but I've filled XP95 a couple of times at this IOC pump near Nal Stop: https://goo.gl/maps/xFchScduzCQ3RWMBA

I've heard from a couple of cab drivers that Uday Fuel Services near Tathawade (link in post 613, the one above yours) is a good pump (IOC) that dispenses XtraGreen Diesel. So, they might be stocking XP95 too (just a guess).

I haven't seen any BP pump in the city sell Speed97, except the COCO one opposite RTO.
