For the purpose of seamlessly expanding companies’ operations from one special economic zone (SEZ) to other, the union government has allowed them permission to expand their operations into other zones. Now the companies can expand into another SEZ, but as a new unit and get tax benefit for the unexpired period.
Earlier, the companies use to ask permission from Board of Approval (BoA), which includes 19 members headed by the commerce secretary, if they decide to build up a unit in another zone, effectively meaning a full-fledged new application because of the ambiguity of the SEZ policy. The policy does not allowed the businesses to shift from domestic tariff areas (non SEZ) to SEZ, which baffled companies over SEZ to SEZ as well.
Hereafter, the companies are not needed to seek BoA nod and the unexpired period of tax benefits will be provided to the new units and in future companies may not even need to seek nod to expand.
