Established in 1965 by Mr. K. Madhava Rao as the 3rd Indian Oil outlet in Tamil Nadu, Madhava Rao Agencies began operations in Janapan Chatram—then a dry, low-traffic area—on NH-5 (Chennai-Kolkata Highway). Overcoming early struggles, including low sales and credit losses, the bunk persevered despite rising competition (from 8 to 65 outlets within 60 km). By the 1980s, Mr. K. Suresh Kumar modernized the facility, expanding capacity to 3 diesel tanks (50KL + 2x20KL) and 2 petrol tanks (15KL each), with 4 pumps and 16 nozzles for faster service. Today, this 24/7 operational bunk serves a thriving location with 1,500KL monthly sales, offering shaded canopies, trained staff, and unwavering reliability for travelers and industries alike.

Mr.K.Madhava Rao (Founder)

This retail outlet is located at the 16th mile NH-5, in Chennai – Kolkata highway after the Karanadai bridge Incorporated in 1965, soon after the establishment of Indian Oil, Mr.K.Madhava Rao, had desired to start up a Petrol bunk in the name of Madhava Rao Agencies at Janapan Chatram. Facing many obstacles he overcame them and completed the construction works and commenced retail operations of the bunk on 30th May 1965. He took immense pride in being the 3rd Indian Oil Outlet in Tamil Nadu. As a challenging factor, this region was a dry area 50 years ago. But today, amazingly, this region has tremendously developed and there is a huge amount of floating population using this petrol bunk for fuel needs.

Mr.K.Madhava Rao faced many struggles till 1973 losing a lot in the Credit Business. His volumes were low in the early stages due to low traffic density. After 1983competition started with what was 8 retail outlets to become 65 retail outlets within a radius of 60 Kms. Unlike in 1965 Janapan Chatram is completely transformed now and is one the busiest areas today. In spite of tough competition and facing many challenges, due to the dedicated and sincere effort of Mr.K.Madhava Rao sales has grown from 200Kl in the 70’s to 1500KL at present.
