Indore/New Delhi: Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL), a Fortune Global 500 company and a Maharatna PSU, unveiled its ambitious ₹49,000 crore Bina Petrochemical Project during a high-profile Investor & Customer Meet held at the Brilliant Convention Centre, Indore. The event was co-hosted with the Madhya Pradesh Industrial Development Corporation (MPIDC) and the Indian Plast Pack Foundation (IPPF).
Themed “Resolute Bharat: Expanding Horizons and Shaping the Future of Petrochemicals,” the meet spotlighted the massive expansion of the Bina Refinery and its transformation into a cutting-edge petrochemical complex that aligns with India’s self-reliance goals under the Make in India initiative.
A Game-Changer for India’s Polymer Industry
BPCL’s ₹49,000 crore investment is set to significantly boost the domestic production of essential petrochemicals, including Polypropylene, HDPE/LLDPE, Benzene, Toluene, and Mixed-Xylene. These high-value polymers are crucial for sectors such as packaging, agriculture, automotive, and consumer goods.
By enhancing the availability of globally benchmarked raw materials, the Bina project is expected to reduce India’s dependency on imports, promote downstream manufacturing, and create extensive economic ripple effects.

Bina: Poised to Become a Petrochemical Powerhouse
The event positioned Bina as an emerging hub in India’s petrochemical map, driven by its strategic location, integrated infrastructure, and investor-friendly policies of the Madhya Pradesh government.
1997 batch IAS officer Raghwendra Kumar Singh, Principal Secretary, Department of Industrial Policy & Investment Promotion, Government of Madhya Pradesh, emphasized the state’s commitment –
“Madhya Pradesh has emerged as a strong investment hub with reliable energy, an extensive land bank, and seamless connectivity to global markets. The expansion of BPCL’s Bina Refinery and the upcoming ₹52,000 crore petrochemical complex will create major downstream opportunities. With dedicated plastic parks, CIPET training facilities, and developed industrial areas, we are building a robust ecosystem for investors.”
Accelerating Self-Reliance in Petrochemicals
Subhankar Sen, Director (Marketing), BPCL, called the Bina expansion a strategic milestone–
“The Bina Petrochemical Project marks a pivotal step in strengthening India’s self-reliance in polymers. Our ₹49,000 crore investment will not only boost domestic availability of key materials but also create competitive opportunities for downstream industries.”
The project aligns with the national energy transition goals and reflects BPCL’s commitment to sustainability, innovation, and industrial growth.
