Hello navinraj

Starting with tune up will be the right way to go until your engine runs normal again.
There is no engine light, or there is code or the engine light bulb burned out.
Have it scan and ask them to look for trouble codes and for pending codes.

Check battery sate of charge.
2.68v.......... 100%
12.45v.......... 75%
12.24v.......... 50%
12.06v.......... 25%
11.89v.......... 0%

The charging system should produce about 13.5 to 14.5 volts at idle.
Low voltage can adversely affect the operation of the ignition system and fuel injectors, causing stalling and misfiring
beside those, check the coolant sensor, A weak ignition coil or a faulty crankshaft position sensor may also cause a stalling problem, If the stalling started to occur shortly after your last fill-up, suspect bad gas.
