The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MoPNG) has invited applications for the post of Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL). This comes more than six months after a search-cum-selection committee was constituted to identify a suitable candidate for the top post.
Earlier, the Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) had interviewed a dozen candidates, including BPCL Director (Finance) Vetsa Ramakrishna Gupta and Director (Refineries) Sanjay Khanna, but found none suitable for the role.
As per the official notification, the last date and time for receipt of complete applications, duly forwarded to MoPNG through email, is 17:30 hours on October 21, 2025. The coveted post of CMD of BPCL is lying vacant since April 30, this year.
