Running a pump in Nagpur
Nagpur sits at a major national highway junction, and long-haul transport is a defining feature of its fuel retail. Long-haul means large fills, fleet cards, credit accounts and a customer base that does not pay at the pump — which makes the gap between litres dispensed and cash collected structural rather than suspicious.
Summers are severe, so delivery temperature correction matters. It is also the case that a highway outlet takes more frequent and larger deliveries than an urban one, which multiplies the effect: a temperature-related discrepancy that is small per delivery becomes significant across a month of them.
Highway volume also arrives in bursts. That concentrates the risk in shift handover, because the nozzle read during the busiest hour is the nozzle most likely to have been read wrong — and a reading taken wrong at handover propagates into both the stock and the cash reconciliation.
What PumpDesk does about it
The daily loop is the same wherever the outlet is. What changes between markets is which step in it carries the most risk — and in Nagpur it is shaped by national highway junction, long-haul transport, hot summers.
- Meter readings per nozzle, per shift. Litres sold are computed, and a closing reading below its opening is rejected at entry.
- Tank dip reconciliation every day, per tank. Book stock is derived and cannot be typed over to make the dip agree.
- Collections by type — cash, UPI, card, fleet and credit kept apart, and compared against the revenue the litres imply.
- Shift handover with a named person, so a shortfall is answerable tonight rather than at month-end.
- Reports in Excel and PDF over any date range, in Indian number formatting.
Getting started here
There is nothing to install and nobody needs to visit. Create your outlet, confirm your fuel types, add each tank with its capacity, add the nozzles hanging off each tank, and invite your staff. Most single-outlet pumps are entered in under an hour.
If you are moving off a register or a spreadsheet, run both for a month. The parallel run is what turns the software from something you were told works into something you have watched agree with your own records thirty times.

Do you provide on-site installation or training?
There is nothing to install — PumpDesk runs in a browser, so setup is entering your tanks, nozzles and fuel types once. Most single-outlet pumps are configured in under an hour without anyone visiting. Support is inside the app on every plan.
Can I run several outlets across Maharashtra from one account?
