The Kundalini and six chakra related concepts and sadhanas are present in many tantras. Shat-Chakra-Nirupana, Swatantra-Tantra and Kankala-malini-Tantra discuss the topics in detail. Tantra is a unique blend of Advaita-Darshana and Yoga-Darshana.
The Kankala-Malini-Tantra describes the deities like Kamini, Dakini, Rakini, Lakini,Kakini,Hakini, etc at different padmas. It also discusses the samadhi state of the sadhaka (Purusha).
Sarada-Tilaka also has the sadhana of shakchakraveda in detail.
Upendrakumar Das has quoted all the relevant slokas with bengali translations in Vol 2 of his 'Shastramulak Bharatiya Shaktisadhana' (chapter 18).

Not Chakras, but deities(like accupuressure points/marma), I.e: I have read somewhere that agni resides on right ear. – Aoi. T_015 Feb 16 '19 at 03:09

@Aoi.T_015 a beautiful diagram by Yogiraj Shyamacharan Lahiri is given in Bhupendranath Sanyal's bengali commentary of Gita.Thats really fascinating.But most probably the book has not been translated to english. – Feb 22 '19 at 15:41
