Complete and finish are both synonymous words. Bus still they might be distinguished as:
Complete means done something to an end
Finish means something is no more.

'complete' and 'finish' both may be used for doing a job. So, you may say that you have completed or finished the job.
But 'finish' has another meaning. This is 'to kill, destroy, consume'. This is extra meaning of 'finish'. Thus you may finish an enemy, finish your lunch. But you cannot complete your enemy or complete your dinner.
Various meanings have been discussed in the same thread. It is necessary to consult dictionary for all meanings.

But sanjeev we cannot use end for every situation more over we can use complete and finish in any situation .
When a job has been done, you may express thus:
(1) The job has been completed.
(2) The job has been finished.
)3) The job has ended (or came to an end).
In a way, completing, finishing and ending all three indicate that there is nothing more to be done.
But you may end abruptly without completing. This will be ending your efforts without completing/ finishing.
As explained in an earlier post, we may use 'finish' for consuming food, wine, any consumable items or killing enemy. 'Complete' cannot be used in these circumstances.
