Bharat Petroleum Corp Ltd (BPCL) today said its six-million-tonnes a year refinery at Bina in Madhya Pradesh will be completed before the year-end and will begin fuel sales from next fiscal.

"The refinery will be mechanically completed before end of 2009 but commissioning will take time. A refinery of this size cannot be commissioned overnight," BPCL Chairman and Managing Director Ashok Sinha told reporters here.
