While it was pointed out to the representative of DoR that the issue of shift of a unit from one SEZ to another is not at par with shifting of a unit from DTA to SEZ, it was also decided that DC MEPZ will further discuss the issue with the unit and once the unit clearly indicates that it is ready to shift after appreciating all the nuances, the proposal can be brought back before BoA. Till then, the proposal stands deferred.

an infrastructure activity and accordingly, the approval may not be given to the applicant as a co-developer. BoA after deliberations, directed that DC must submit his report after discussions with the developer and the report must also include nature of business model.
The Board accordingly deferred consideration of the proposal.
