INTRODUCTION
Defining SEZ:Specific Geographical regionsFenced-in Industrial Estate
SEZs in India:Pioneer in Asia- Kandla SEZ in 1965.SEZ policy (2000): EPZ coverted to- SEZs
SEZ OBJECTIVES (SEZ policy, 2000)
1. Generation of additional economic activity2. Promotion of exports of goods & Services3. Stimulate investment4. Generate employment opportunities5. Development of Infrastructure facilities

LITERATURE REVIEW- 1
Little research on SEZ performance in India during the period 2000-2010 (Aggarwal, 2004).
There is exhaustive literature analyzing the efficacy of SEZ . Grandos (2003) pointed out that growth models based on export promotion instead of import substitution are better models.
Success factors for SEZ have been researched by several authors. CII report(2008), Smart& Hsu(2004), and Cling & Letilly (2001) have argued that Geographical location is the most important factor behind SEZ success in India and China.
LITERATURE REVIEW- 2
Kumar (1989), and Wei Gi (1999) have found that Economic infrastructure and favourable govt. policy are critical for SEZ success in S. Asia, India and China. Kumar (1998)
The existing literature has mainly judged the success of SEZs/EPZs in terms of employment generation, export growth, linkages to the host economy, foreign exchange GDP growth and regional imbalances in growth.
Efficiency of SEZs in India is far below the threshold level (Tantri, 2011).
No tool for growth measurement
RESEARCH GAP
Thus an attempt is made to evaluate the performance of SEZs in India in relation to three attributes—namely, exports, employment and investment. Further land use has also been studied.
No tool for growth measurement and continual performance monitoring of SEZ has been developed .
The present Research attempts to develope this monitoring tool in order to generate a competitive environment for SEZ operations to allow the Decision makers to go for a periodical course-correction.
RESEARCH PROBLEM
Economic development through Export led growth strategy (ELG).
SEZ led to INR 1,75,874 crore worth of revenue loss during 2013-14 (CBEC).
Implementation of SEZ policy, 2000 has come under heavy criticism.
Lack of clarity in Incentive package: only 15 years exemption on export income
First 5 years - 100%; thereafter, 50 % (next 5 years); 50 %( next 5 years)

OBJECTIVES
To understand the concept of SEZMake analytical study of SEZ policy 2000.To examine the economic effects of SEZs in Indian
Economy in terms of Export, Investment & Employment.To present a comparative picture of the 7 public sector
SEZsTo find the best performing public sector SEZ, making
the optimum use of its scarce resources to generate optimum output
Last but not the least, to develop a tool for periodical monitoring of SEZs.
RESEARCH QUESTION
Do the Indian SEZs have the potential to optimize their activities for achieving their establishment objectives and act as engines of Economic growth?
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
In order to make the study more systematic following framework has been adopted.
Sample selection: 7 Central Government SEZs; Purposive Sampling
Period of study: 2005-2006 till 2014-15Statistical tools used in the study: Mean,
Standard Deviation, CAGR, correlation, t- test; f-test; ANOVA;
Quantitative technique: Goal-programming application
Data Collection
a. Development Commissioner’s Office of respective SEZs b. Economic Survey of India. c. Export Import data bank. d. Export Promotion Council for Export Oriented Units (EOUs) and SEZ. e. SEZ and Department of Commerce Website. f. Reserve Bank of India Website. g. Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion Website. h.

Economic Zones in India- Lesson from China etc.
Limitations of the Study
Confined for the period 2005-2015. Due to the unavailability of data even after applying under the
Right to Information Act (RTI), the researcher was forced to carry out with the available data which ultimately affects involving more number of parameters in measuring the performance of the SEZs.
The involved SEZ were hesitant to provide data which disabled the researcher to collect data beyond the performance indicators or else the study could have involved more number of performance indicators.
Websites related to SEZ is not updated and took many follow ups. Cost-benefit analysis of SEZs could be done but due to non-
availability of cost data, research is limited to performance/benefit analysis only.
RESEARCH DESIGN in a nutshell
STEP 1: Statistical tests to check for level of dependency between the performance variables
7 central government SEZs are analyzed in terms of Development indicators- Export, Investment & Employment; identified by SEZ Policy of 2000.
This involves- Finding Correlation coefficient and testing the significance of correlation.
Inter- region study: Cumulative Indian SEZ in comparison to Indian Scenario Eg ISEZ’s Export- India’s Export ISEZ’s Employment- India’s Employment ISEZ’s Investment- India’s Investment Individual SEZ in comparison to cumulative Indian SEZs Eg- Export of Noida SEZ correlation with- Export of Indian SEZs & Employment of Noida SEZ correlation with- Employment of Indian SEZs Investment of Noida SEZ correlation with- Indian SEZs Investment
Intra- region study: Correlation between Export, Investment & Employment of SEZs- ISEZ
and Public sector SEZs
STEP-2 GOAL PROGRAMMING-Principles
Application of Goal Programming Model
PRINCIPLES OF GOAL PROGRAMMING
Convert Multiple Objective into Single Goal by Minimizing deviations between: Target Values & Realized results i.e.,
o Minimize under or overachievement of target (Minimize d– or d+ as the case may be)
o To understand it more clearly,o Say, x1=1, x2=1 Then obviously, x1 + x2 = 2o However, if the Goal is to make x1 + x2 =1, we add a
negative quantity d- (called deviation variable d-), with a value of -1, and re-write the equation as, x1 + x2 + d- = 1 then the equation is satisfied.

Holistic approach of Land Allotment (Ref:Table). Vacant un-utilised Land may be re-allotted to better performing sectors
Ensures Pragmatic approach by Central & State Governments
Assessment of Opportunity Cost to Primary Sector
