How to use FuelRates

A quick walk-through of every tab, from today's official district rates to pump facilities, factual trends and driver reports.

1. Check today's prices

Open Today and pick your district and fuel. See the official district rate, how long it has stayed unchanged and nearby districts where the rate genuinely differs.

How to use

2. Find pumps near you

Use Pumps to browse stations alphabetically by area or brand and filter for CNG, 24-hour opening, air and other facilities. Tap a pump for facilities, directions and quantity or meter-trust ratings.

How to use

3. Compare pumps side by side

Add pumps from the Pumps tab, then open Compare to view their available prices, full-tank cost, cost per 100 km and last update side by side.

How to use

4. Know your real cost

Enter your car, bike or auto tank size, mileage and monthly distance to see full-tank, per-100-km and monthly costs. When relevant, see the saving in a cheaper nearby district.

How to use

5. Check factual price trends

Open Trends for the last 7 days, daily rises or falls and the unchanged streak for every fuel. Follow a district and fuel to see recorded changes — FuelRates never predicts prices.

6. Report the price you saw

Standing at a pump? Open the Report tab, sign in, pick the pump and fuel, and enter the price on the board. Your report helps every other driver.

How to use

Good to know

  • Switch between English and Telugu anytime with the EN / తె buttons at the top.
  • Sign in to use Pumps, Compare and Cost, report a price, follow changes and rate a pump's quantity or meter trust.
  • Prices are indicative and come from daily oil-company revisions and driver reports — always confirm at the pump.
  • Official petrol and diesel rates are usually the same across pumps in one district, so FuelRates lists pumps by name and facilities instead of claiming a cheapest pump.
  • A driver-reported price is clearly labelled when it differs from the official district rate.

Why do fuel prices change?

  • Global crude oil prices — India imports most of its oil, so world prices flow into pump rates.
  • The rupee–dollar exchange rate — a weaker rupee makes imported oil costlier.
  • Government taxes — central excise and state VAT changes move prices overnight.

Oil companies review rates every morning at 6 AM, so prices can change any day. FuelRates never predicts — it only shows what actually changed.
