MIDC
:
Maharashtra
Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) is the primary industrial
infrastructure development agency of the Maharashtra Government. Constituted
under the Maharashtra Industrial Development Act, 1961, MIDC was established
on 1st August, 1962, with the basic objective of setting up
industrial areas with a provision of industrial infrastructure all over the
state for planned and systematic industrial development.
MIDC
has played a vital role in the development of industrial infrastructure in
the state of Maharashtra. As the state steps into the next millennium, MIDC
lives up to its motto 'Udyamat Sakal Samruddhi' (Prosperity to all through
industrialization).
Indeed,
in the endeavor of the state to retain its prime position in the industrial
sector, MIDC has played a pivotal role in the last 35 years. MIDC has
developed more than 195 industrial estates (major and mini) across the state
spread over 45,000 hectares of land. The growth of the Corporation, achieved
in the various fields, during the last 3 years, could be gauged from the
fact that the area currently in possession of MIDC has doubled from 25,000
hectares in 1995.
MIDC
is also a "Special Planning Authority" for all its industrial
areas for various functions such as selection of land, planning, development
and management of industrial parks.
Activities:
Ø
Development
of industrial areas by acquiring land.
Ø

Achievements:
Development
of Industrial Area
Since
its inception in 1962, MIDC has established at least one industrial area in
every district of the State. Right from selection of site, land acquisition, planning and
development of the entire basic infrastructure has been done by MIDC in
these areas. As on 31st
March 1994, there were 267 industrial areas notified by the State
Government, out of which 79 are major areas, 64 are Growth
Centers (State Government), 5 are Growth Centers (Central Government)
and 119 are mini industrial
areas. The total land notified
for acquisition in all these areas is 59,331 hectares out of which 7,579 hectares
is Government land and 51,752 hectares is private land. To achieve balanced
industrialization, large number of industrial areas i.e. 254 numbers are being set up
in the developing regions whereas only
13 numbers are located
in the developed regions of BMR and PM.
Out of 267 industrial
areas notified by the Government, in 150 areas the land is
already in possession of the Corporation.
The total land in possession
of the Corporation is 31,932 hectares.

Central
Government Growth Centers
The
Government of India in 1988 announced a scheme for development of Growth
Centers in the State of Maharashtra at Chandrapur,
Akola, Dhule, Nanded
and Ratnagiri. Under
this scheme, about 600 to 800 hectares of land is to be acquired at each
Growth Centre. The sites for
all the five Growth Centres have already been identified and the process
of acquisition
of land for these Growth Centres
has been initiated. MIDC
has been appointed by the State Government as a Nodal Agency for the
implementation of this scheme.
Common
Effluent Treatment Plant Scheme in MIDC Industrial Areas
By
encouraging Government of India sponsored Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP)
in Maharashtra, MIDC has made conscious and deliberate efforts to mitigate
pollution problems and
betterment of environment quality in chemical industrial areas.
Connecing
Districts by Airstrips
Existing
airstrips at Kolhapur, Ratnagiri, Baramati and Yeotmal are being managed on
behalf of State Govt. The existing at Gondia is being improved. New
Airstrips are being constructed at,
(1)Gadchiroli,
(2)Parule
(Sindhudurg),
(3)(Beed),
(4)
Parbhani and
(5)
Malkapur (Buldhana)
Activity
entrepreneurs can undertake
a)
new industrial venture in small, medium or large scale sector;
b)
expansion or diversification of the existing industrial unit;
c)
shifting of existing industrial unit;
d)
service industry/commercial ventures like industrial
warehousing,canteen, petrol pump, shop, health service to support the
industrial units;
e)
industrial housing
wherever separate residential zones are developed by MIDC.
Electronic
Zones
MIDC
has established special Electronic Zones to encourage
establishment of electronic units. In
these zones, readymade Flatted Factory
Buildings have been constructed
to facilitate entrepreneurs to start
the manufacturing
activity speedily. Similarly, various sizes
of plots are also made available in the electronic zones.
The electronic zones have already been established at:
1.
T.T.C. Industrial area
2.
Pimpri-Chinchwad industrial area
3.
Hingna Industrial area, Nagpur.
4. Chikhalthana Industrial area, Aurangabad.
Allotment
Procedure of Plots
Plots
of appropriate size are allotted
to entrepreneurs on lease
of 95 years on
recovering lease premium in lump sum prior to allotment. The
plot holders
can mortgage
the plots
alongwith structures to Financial Institutions with prior
consent of
MIDC. Transfers of
vacant plots are not generally
permitted and plots can be transferred with prior approval of MIDC. In case of transfers of `formal' nature, MIDC
recovers standard
transfer fee
whereas in case of non-formal transfers, the differential premium
i.e. difference between the amount of lease premium paid at the time of a
allotment and the amount based
on prevalent
rates at the time of transfer, is charged. Explanatory booklets on
transfer of plots are available from MIDC offices.
MIDC approves building
plans and also grants building completion certificates.
If a plot remains
unutilised for more than 3 years, the plot holder has
to either
obtain extension by
paying additional premium or surrender the plot.
Various
MIDC officers have been empowered to allot the plot
depending upon the size of the plot and the location of the
industrial area.
Built-up
sheds
Built-up
sheds are constructed in different industrial areas by
MIDC with view to enable
the technocrats and small scale industries to set up their units expeditiously.
The sheds are advertised periodically
calling for applications in the
prescribed form. Sheds are
normally allotted on outright basis. Sheds
on installment basis are
allotted to lady
entrepreneurs and SC/ST
entrepreneurs in developed as well as developing areas. The detailed
procedures of allotment of plot of land and shed,
agreement to lease and
final lease have been explained in module 7, `Your Queries' of this package.
Water
Supply
Water
is an essential input for development of industry.
For certain industries, water could even be a major raw material.
MIDC has shouldered the responsibility of providing filtered water in
all its industrial estates. So far, MIDC has executed 48 schemes for supply
of filtered water of capacities ranging from 4,000 cubic meters per day to
520,000 cubic meters per day. The total capacity of MIDC's water supply
scheme is 17.42 lakhs cubic meters per day (1742 million liters per day).
MIDC has executed Barvi, Dhule, Murbad and Ransai water supply schemes where
construction of dams was also involved.
The total capital expenditure incurred on these four schemes alone
till 31st March, 1994 is to the tune of Rs.728 million.MIDC , at present, is
executing Mahad water supply scheme costing more than Rs.250 million
where construction of a dam has been
undertaken. The total expenditure as on 31st March 1994 is Rs. 353 mn.
Apart from supplying water to industry as the core activity, MIDC has
undertaken water supply to many residential areas, villages and townships.
Tree
plantation
Under
MIDC's tree plantation promotion programme, industrial units, in MIDC areas
can avail of the following facilities:
1)
free supply of tree saplings.
2)
open space along the side of the road or other open space can
be allotted to
industrial units at the nominal rent of
Re.1/- per annum
for a period of five
years. The licence can be renewed every
five years subject to proper maintenance.
3.
permission can be granted to fence these open spaces.
4.
industrial units can display advertisements of their products
in such spaces.
5.
15 mm
water supply connection can be provided at each
site at domestic rates.
6.
a rebate
of Rs.12/- per tree, per year is paid by MIDC on the number
of trees which survive for the first three
years. This rebate is adjusted through the water bills.
As
a result of such encouraging steps and implementation of
its own tree plantation
programme, the industrial areas of MIDC, its
offices, water works and
other premises all over the State are now
surrounded with greenery. During the period of last five years, more
than 2.2 million trees have been planted by MIDC all over the state.
Common
Amenities
With
the objective of making available basic facilities at the neighborhood, MIDC
provides in every industrial area accommodation facilities like post office,
telephone exchange, telex exchange, hospital and dispensaries, canteen,
shops, police station, fire station, commercial banks, school etc.
Some of these facilities are accommodated in one building normally
called as Common Facility Center. Separate
plots are also made available, if required, for accommodating these
activities depending on the scope and size.
MIDC also provides land for ESIS Hospitals and ITIs within MIDC areas
wherever needed. Accommodations
for police stations/chowkies and staff quarters within the industrial areas
are provided by MIDC.
The
results
With
the sustained
efforts of MIDC since 1962 and the
Package of Incentives
for industries offered by the State Government,
industries are now flocking to developing parts of the State and so
far 15,428 industrial
units have started production in the MIDC areas. These industrial units have
catalyzed an investment of Rs. 3,743 millions.
The
Future
MIDC
has now been entrusted with the responsibility
of implementing the
program announced by the State Government for setting up
Growth centers and Mini Industrial
Areas in the State. The acquisition
proposals for the land have been submitted to the State Government and it
is expected that by the end of 1996 as many as 52 major Industrial
Areas, 63 Growth Centers, five Central
Government Growth
Centers and 131 Mini Industrial Areas would be for
developed.
This
program envisages acquisition of 35,847 hectares of land at an estimated
cost of Rs.1438 million. The
aforesaid program aims at giving the main thrust by MIDC
for industrialization of
the developing part of the State and as many
as 251 locations in the developing part of the State are expected to
join the industrial development process in the near future.
