    BPCL to create a wholly owned project company for the proposed Ramayapatnam refinery with up to Rs 4900 cr authorised capital, with investment decision deferred.

    BPCL's board on 23 October 2026 approved setting up a wholly owned subsidiary in India as the dedicated project company for the proposed greenfield refinery and petrochemical complex at Ramayapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, subject to government and regulatory approvals. The subsidiary will have initial authorised share capital of up to Rs 4900 crore to enable due diligence, lender and partner engagement and financing structuring. Feasibility reports are still being finalised and the final investment decision and financial commitments will be taken separately later, so there is no immediate project spend commitment.
