Is it - "IBP Petrol bunk, Madhapur (next to Pride Honda)"?

Sounds very reasonable.
Xenex quoted 200 and 50 respectively.

No, this is not in Madhapur. The bunk is Opp TCS while going towards Mind Space.

That's the IOC COCO bunk, opp TCS and beside Lemon Tree. In fact, that bunk was there for the past decade, and it was the only one in that area. But it was a small one, and not a COCO outlet, and only a couple of years back expanded into a big one. They take Citibank IOC credit cards, hence all my colleagues go there.

I heard from my colleagues that he does not charge for N2 refills, but they don't mind being tipped 10 bucks for each refill.

Hmm .. I usually use back side road of Mindspace (or Inorbit road at times), so wasn't able to understand this one.

10 or 20 is pretty reasonable, BP pump near Kapadia Lane is also like 200 and 50 category one

One more doubt .. on tyre pressure.
I had been using 27-28 with the OE tyres on my Fabia, however with new Michelin XM2's this guy put nitrogen at 32psi and suggested to maintain the same.
My initial experience has been pretty fine in a week or so, as in there haven't been much noises (and/or any vibration) which would have been the case with old tyres (with normal air at 30 or above).
Here also I see most folks using 32, looks like that's the number to go in case of nitrogen.

Please let me know on the below:
1. Shell petrol bunk near Gachibowli/Nallagandla.
2. Nitrogen filling stations near Gachibowli/Nallagandla.

Searched this thread but could not find any.

Thank you.

Thank you.

1. Shell has stopped its operations in Telangana and Andhra.
2. I am not aware of Nitrogen filling stations in Gachibowli, and I don't think if there is any in Nallagandla either.

Our list does have one option for Gachibowli (as above), not sure though where exactly it is.
If this is not an option, then probably the pump opposite TCS near Cyber Pearl would be next nearby option.

Thank you.

Closest for you would be Mallikarjuna Petrol station, opp. BHEL gate, which should be around 5km from Nallagandla

I have a question. Can I re-fill my tyres with nitrogen after driving for say, 10 kms? the concept of heating tyres (inflated) is not applicable for Nitrogen air? I am a little confused.

With nitrogen, the variance with temperature is usually much lesser and hence a 10km without too much braking would not overheat the tyres and you can go with the same numbers.

In case of air, the tyres would have difference of up to 4-5 psi when hot but it need not be uniform across all tyres, leading to different pressures once it cools down. With nitrogen, I've not seen it increase beyond 1-2 psi even after a 200km trip.
