WHAT IS A SEZ ?
The concept of SEZ is expected to bring large dividends to the State in terms of economic and industrial development and the generation of new employment opportunities.
The SEZs are expected to be engines for economic growth.
Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is defined as "a specifically delineated duty free enclave and shall be deemed to be foreign territory for the purposes of trade operations and duties and tariffs".

Fundamentals of SEZs SEZs (special economic zones) are fundamentally
different from the traditional free zones.
They are much larger in size; offer broader range of activities such as
a single-window management, streamlined procedures, duty-free privileges, also access to the domestic market on a duty-
paid basis.

Cont..
Whether the enclave is termed an EPZ, FTZ or SEZ, the cardinal factors are appropriate infrastructure and transport facilities, low factor cost, flexible labour laws, convertibility of currency, stable legal and administrative regime, and a commitment to the canons of an open economy

SWOT ANALYSIS OF INDIAN SEZ
STRENGTH• Based on Western model or SEZ in China• An established legal redress system • Relatively low labour costs• Employment opportunities• India’s large English speaking and skilled
workforce• Exposure to technology and global market
![Page 36: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Worldwide acceptance of capabilities in fields like• Pharmaceutical manufacturing & research• Clinical trials• Manufacturing auto parts• Engineering designing & consultancy, IT & ITES• Malls and hotels• Hospital
• Financial & other institutional Networks like Insurance Companies
![Page 37: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
WEAKNESS
• Poor infrastructure and transport facilities
• High cost of capital
• Inadequate institutional support
• Political changes
• Inappropriate locations
![Page 38: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
OPPORTUNITIES
• An alternative manufacturing base, particularly compared to
Chinese SEZs
• Investments in core strength areas like IT and software products and
services.
• New small ports & airports are also being developed keeping SEZ
concept in mind
• A large NRI base who have traditionally invested less in Greenfield
development in India
![Page 39: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
THREATS
• The pattern of buying & selling may not continue. With relocations of industries in other third world countries, new competitors will emerge
• opposing interests • Prospect of even more restrictive labour laws being
introduced • Increasing rejection rate for proposals to establish SEZs

REASONS FOR FAILURESEZs in India
(ii) Inadequate infrastructure
(iii) Restrictive policies
(iv) Lengthy procedures – No Single Window
(v) Locational disadvantages
(vi) Stringent labour laws
- In the 1990s, as a part of reforms, powers delegated to zone authorities, additional fiscal incentives were given, policy provisions were simplified and greater facilities were provided leading to some, not very significant, improvements.

Current Status of SEZ’s in India

Performance of SEZ’s In India

The government does not provide information on jobs lost, only on jobs created.
• Finance Minister P. Chidambaram wrote to Cabinet colleagues saying: “SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONEs per se will distort land, capital, and labour cost, which will encourage relocation or shifting of industries in clever ways that can’t be stopped. This will be further aggravated by the proliferation of a large number of SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONEs in and around metros.”)
![Page 48: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Impact of the Special Economic Zone
• Affluent of the industry will deteriorate physical condition of soil.
• The chemical affluents from the industries will also effect the bio-resources.
• The sub-surface and under ground water quality will be impaired, because of heavy metals etc., through the contaminated water from the surface.
• The fertile land will become unproductive for the agriculture.
• The environment will be affected by such pollution.• The land value will be decreased.• The Socio-economic conditions of the people in the
area will be effected.
![Page 49: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
• Environment (Protection) Act is inapplicable to SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONEs. No environmental clearance needed.
• Violates Panchayat Raj Act (1996) for local self government.
• Violates laws granting rights and control to Adivasi communities over their land.
• Violates many international conventions on human rights.
![Page 50: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
CONCLUSION
• SEZ policy has no doubt given a boost to the Indian Economy but comparison of implementation with other countries brings out lacunas in India’s SEZ Policy.
• The reasons for disparities can be attributed to many reasons as listed below.
Improper SEZ policy Irresponsible planning while locating SEZ Ineffective Land Acquisition Policies Improper Rehabilitation Policy
![Page 51: Sez india](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5550fe19b4c90572478b4c56/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
CONCLUSION
• Key challenges in the SEZs programme will be
•Due exercise of control while approving and locating SEZ’s. •Compensation for acquisition shall be on the basis of market prices . •Give share of acquired land in the developed area to the owners. •Provision of employment for Landless labourers . •Provision of revenue for ULBs on sharing basis to compensate their
withdrawal once the area is notified as SEZ. •Development of SEZs needs to be integrated with existing Master
Plans and Regional Plans. •There is need to develop regional/sub regional plan around the SEZ
areas.
