This Act establishes a legal framework for creating Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in Rajasthan to promote economic development. An SEZ is a designated area where businesses enjoy relaxed regulations and incentives. The Act applies to the whole state and governs the establishment, development, and operation of these zones through a structured approval process. It enables streamlined procedures, infrastructure development, and benefits like tax concessions to attract exporting industries. By creating special zones with separate regulations, Rajasthan aims to boost industrial growth, create jobs, and attract foreign investment, positioning itself as a favorable business destination.
