Yes, fuel prices in Chennai can vary slightly between different fuel stations. These variations are primarily due to factors such as location-based transportation costs, dealer commissions, and operational expenses incurred by each station.
While the base petrol and diesel rates are determined by Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) like Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum, the final price you pay at the pump may differ slightly from one outlet to another. Stations located in prime city areas or along major highways often have higher logistical and maintenance costs, which can influence their selling price.
Disclaimer: Minor differences in price across fuel stations are normal and depend on dealer margins and local cost factors.
