SEZs have generated over 880,000 jobs and over $223 billion in exports in recent years.
This document outlines the Special Economic Zone Act of 2005 in India. Some key points:
1. Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are geographical regions with more liberal economic laws than the country to promote development and attract investment.
2. The Act provides procedures for establishing SEZs, including submitting proposals to State and Central governments for approval. It also defines developers and coordinators of SEZs.
3. The Act exempts goods and services exported from or imported into SEZs from various taxes and duties to encourage business activity. It demarcates processing areas within SEZs for manufacturing and services.
The document discusses the history and development of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in China over the past 30 years, with a focus on Shenzhen. It notes that China established the first 5 SEZs in 1978-1980 in Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Shantou, Xiamen, and Hainan province. Shenzhen transformed from a small border town into a major city with over 10 million residents and became known as a "window to the world" due to its role pioneering China's economic reforms and opening up. The document outlines Shenzhen's growth and changing skyline from the early 1980s to today.
Special Economic Zone is the most discussed and disputed topic in India. For the economic development and to encourage export of various things and to take place in globalization all the countries are contributing themselves and trying for it consciously and SEZ is one of the parts of this. All over the opposition to SEZ, but for financial development, export growth, increase employment of the country, SEZ is essential. Government has passed special SEZ Act and implementation is doing. It is necessary to see the SEZ in positive view. SEZ projects should be started in backward area for
development of regional equilibrium. SEZ have been acquired land from the farmers, government should be done rehabilitation and included them as shareholders of the SEZ projects as well as the family members of the farmers should be reserved some vacancies of employment. Employment should be provided to the local workers, for existence of SSI to prepare list of articles of SSI, to limitations of maximum land acquired for SEZ etc. options should be considered by Government then farmers are helping to SEZ and economic development is done through SEZ.
This document provides an overview of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India, including their origin, evolution, approval process, incentives, and impacts. It discusses how SEZs have evolved from Export Processing Zones (EPZs) to provide more liberalized policies and incentives. Key points covered include the approval process for SEZ proposals, incentives provided to businesses in SEZs like tax exemptions, and benefits seen so far including increased investment, exports, and employment. Challenges and impacts related to land acquisition and loss of government revenue are also mentioned.
A Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is a geographical region with economic laws that are more liberal than a country's domestic laws to attract foreign direct investment and help exports. SEZs aim to create a business-friendly environment through duty exemptions and single-window clearance. India's first SEZ was set up in 1965 and the current SEZ policy dates to 2000, offering tax holidays, duty exemptions, and relaxed regulations to boost investment and exports. However, SEZs have also faced issues regarding loss of government revenue, regional imbalance, environmental impacts, and employee working conditions.
Special economic zones (SEZs) are areas within countries that have different economic regulations than other areas, aimed at attracting foreign investment. SEZs in India were established to accelerate foreign investment and exports by providing world-class infrastructure and tax incentives. There are currently eight operational SEZs located across major cities in India. The objectives of SEZs are to promote exports, investment, employment, and infrastructure development through a single window clearance system and simplified procedures.

Special economic zones are areas within countries that have different economic regulations than other areas in order to attract foreign direct investment and spur economic growth. SEZs provide tax incentives and streamlined procedures to encourage business investment. China has been very successful in using SEZs, first establishing four zones in 1979 that helped liberalize its economy and attract over $500 billion in exports and foreign investment. India also set up various SEZs under a 2005 policy aimed at generating economic activity and promoting exports and investment. SEZs have been shown to boost economies through foreign capital inflows, job creation, and infrastructure development.

SEZs were first established in China in 1980 and provide facilities, infrastructure, tax incentives and streamlined procedures to attract businesses. While SEZs have positively generated employment, exports, and foreign direct investment, some have suppressed labor standards and rights. Overall, the economic impacts of SEZs tend to be more positive than negative by creating jobs and investment opportunities, though negative impacts on workers need monitoring in some zones.
Basic understanding of SEZs, Indian SEZs, Capability and need of SEZs in an Economy like India, Statewise number of SEZs in India, Upcoming SEZs, Exports from Indian SEZs, Incentives and Benefits of SEZs, Advantages and Disadvantages of SEZs
Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are geographical regions that have more liberal economic laws than a country's typical laws. The first SEZ was established in the United States in 1947. SEZs offer duty-free imports and exports, foreign investment incentives, streamlined approvals, tax concessions, and improved infrastructure to encourage industrialization. India established its first export processing zone in 1965 and introduced the SEZ policy in 2000 and 2005 to boost foreign investment and exports. There are now over 200 approved SEZs in India, though only around 30 are currently operational.
Special economic zones are geographical regions that have more liberal economic laws than a country's typical laws. They are intended to be engines of economic growth. India's SEZ policy aims to enhance foreign investment, promote exports, and create opportunities for domestic businesses. As of 2007, India had over 200 functional SEZs. West Bengal passed a SEZ law in 2003 to accelerate economic reforms. SEZs in West Bengal have grown industries like jewelry production and provided employment opportunities, but they also face issues like criticisms of land acquisition practices.

This document provides an overview of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It defines SEZs as geographical regions with different economic laws than the country to promote economic growth and foreign investment. SEZs are exempt from certain taxes, quotas, and labor laws. India has established over 143 operational SEZs since first introducing the concept in 2000. SEZs aim to generate economic activity, promote exports and investment, and create jobs. They provide tax incentives for businesses and have contributed to India's export growth, but also face criticisms related to land acquisition and environmental impacts.
Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are specifically delineated duty-free enclaves deemed to be foreign territory for trade purposes. They aim to provide a competitive environment for exports by offering tax exemptions, subsidies, and relaxed regulations. SEZs started in the 1960s and have expanded over the years. Currently there are over 150 approved SEZs in India focused on sectors like IT, pharmaceuticals, and textiles. SEZs generate economic activity and promote investment but also face criticism around loss of government revenue, land acquisition issues, lack of infrastructure planning, and potential exploitation of labor. Oversight and an exit policy for developers are suggested to address some of these concerns.
In my small presentation, i have discussed the history of SEZ and its types in 1st part and in 2nd part i have discussed two controversies regarding SEZ.
This document provides an overview of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It notes that SEZs are designated duty-free and tax-free enclaves established in 2001 to promote international business. As of 2008, there were over 200 notified SEZs in India contributing over 66,000 crores in exports and employing over 200,000 people. The document outlines the benefits of SEZs, including tax holidays, duty-free imports/exports, single window clearances, and incentives for the IT/ITES industry. It concludes by providing contact information for Swanand International, a consultancy for SEZ development.
Special economic zones (SEZs) provide tax and duty exemptions to boost exports by streamlining procedures and offering infrastructure and logistics support. SEZs in China like Shenzhen have attracted massive foreign investment and created millions of jobs through their large size, flexible labor policies, and world-class infrastructure. However, SEZs also face issues like inadequate connecting infrastructure, bureaucratic hurdles, and losing cost advantages as wages rise in the host country over time.
The document discusses Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It provides background on SEZs, noting that India first experimented with Export Processing Zones in 1965 and officially introduced SEZs in 2000 based on models from China. The objectives of SEZs are to generate additional economic activity, promote exports and investment, create employment, and develop infrastructure through simplified procedures. Benefits of SEZs include attracting over $100 billion in investment and creating 500,000 jobs by 2007, with exports from SEZs projected to reach $352 billion by 2017.
SEZs are areas within countries that have different business and trade laws than the rest of the country. They aim to increase trade, investment, jobs, and economic growth. Companies in SEZs benefit from tax breaks and other financial incentives. While SEZs attract investment and jobs, they can also result in loss of government revenue, land grabbing, loss of agricultural land, regional disparity, and deindustrialization of other areas. However, SEZs have been an important part of developing economies' strategies to boost exports, investment, and infrastructure development.
The document discusses the concept, structure, process, impact and future of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It traces the origin and evolution of SEZs from Export Processing Zones (EPZs) and provides details on the approval process, incentives offered, and functional SEZs in the country.

A Robust Approach in Iris Recognition for Person AuthenticationIOSR Journals
The document describes a robust approach for iris recognition used for person authentication. It proposes using eight main stages: 1) scanning the iris image, 2) converting it to grayscale, 3) applying median filters to reduce noise, 4) detecting the pupil center, 5) using canny edge detection to identify iris and pupil edges, 6) determining the iris and pupil radii, 7) localizing the iris, and 8) unrolling the iris texture. It then uses k-means clustering to compare images and match them to authenticate individuals in a database. The approach aims to improve on previous iris recognition methods by more accurately detecting non-circular iris and pupil shapes.
The document summarizes several improved algorithms that aim to address the drawbacks of the Apriori algorithm for association rule mining. It discusses six different approaches: 1) An intersection and record filter approach that counts candidate support only in transactions of sufficient length and uses set intersection; 2) An approach using set size and frequency to prune insignificant candidates; 3) An approach that reduces the candidate set and memory usage by only searching frequent itemsets once to delete candidates; 4) A partitioning approach that divides the database; 5) An approach using vertical data format to reduce database scans; and 6) A distributed approach to parallelize the algorithm across machines.
This document investigates how changing the position of the tool point on the moving platform affects the dynamic performance of a 3RRR planar parallel manipulator. Lagrange-d'Alembert formulation is used to develop the dynamic model. The manipulator's dimensions and parameters remain the same, while only the tool point position is changed. Simulation results show that locating the tool point at an optimal position reduces the generalized forces and energy consumption of the manipulator, improving its dynamic performance.
This document summarizes a study that used numerical homogenization techniques and statistical analysis to determine the representative volume element (RVE) size for porous materials with cylindrical pores, specifically lotus-type porous copper. Finite element analysis was performed on randomly generated representative volume elements (RVEs) with varying sizes and numbers of realizations. The effective elastic properties and variance were calculated for each RVE size. An integral range parameter was used to relate the variance to the RVE size and determine the minimum RVE needed to estimate the effective properties within a given precision. The results showed this approach can accurately predict the effective elastic properties of porous materials and define an RVE size based on statistical convergence criteria.
This document summarizes an aerodynamic analysis of a car model conducted using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to reduce drag force. The original Swift Dzire car model and two modified models - a "fastback" design with a sloped rear and a model with a rear spoiler - were simulated at 144 km/hr. The original model had a drag coefficient of 0.375. The fastback design had a lower drag coefficient of 0.335 due to delayed flow separation at the rear. The spoiler model had an even lower drag coefficient of 0.35, as the inverted wing spoiler produced downward force to increase traction at high speeds. CFD analysis provided insight into pressure and velocity contours to understand
High Speed and Time Efficient 1-D DWT on Xilinx Virtex4 DWT Using 9/7 Filter ...IOSR Journals
This document describes a new efficient distributed arithmetic (NEDA) technique for implementing a high speed 1-D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) using a 9/7 filter on a Xilinx Virtex4 FPGA. The key aspects of the NEDA technique are that it uses adders as the main component and does not require multipliers, subtraction, or ROM. Simulation results show the proposed NEDA architecture requires fewer logic resources and has a shorter maximum path delay compared to existing distributed arithmetic techniques.
An Efficient Algorithm for the Segmentation of Astronomical ImagesIOSR Journals
This document proposes an efficient algorithm for segmenting celestial objects from astronomical images. The algorithm uses multiple preprocessing steps including removing bright point sources, stationary wavelet transform, total variation denoising, and adaptive histogram equalization. Level set segmentation is then used as the key technique for segmentation. Preprocessing helps overcome issues like noise, weak object edges, and low contrast. Level set segmentation can segment objects while retaining their texture and shape information for subsequent classification. The algorithm is tested on various celestial objects and shown to effectively segment them.

1) Calculating FCH features for each pixel using fuzzy membership values to color bins, which allows robustness to noise and quantization errors.
2) Comparing FCH features between current and background model frames using a similarity measure to classify each pixel as background or foreground.
3) Adaptively updating the background model at each pixel position over time using an online learning approach.
The key advantage of this approach is that the fuzzy color histograms allow efficient attenuation of
Outlining Bangla Word Dictionary for Universal Networking LanguageIOSR Journals
This document discusses outlining a Bangla word dictionary for the Universal Networking Language (UNL) system. UNL is an artificial language that allows computers to process information across languages. The authors have been working to include Bangla in the UNL system. They describe the format of a UNL dictionary entry, which includes the headword (Bangla word), universal word, and grammatical attributes. Simply searching the UNL knowledge base for universal words is not effective, so they propose finding universal words based on existing translations of Bangla texts to English and their UNL expressions. The goal is to develop a Bangla dictionary to facilitate converting Bangla sentences to UNL format.

The document discusses Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It defines an SEZ as a specifically delineated duty free enclave within a country's territory that is treated as a foreign area for trade operations and duties. SEZs aim to attract businesses through tax incentives and reduced regulations. India first experimented with Export Processing Zones in 1965 and established its first SEZ policy in 2000 to promote exports and foreign investment through world-class infrastructure and a stable fiscal regime in dedicated industrial zones. The objectives of SEZs are to develop infrastructure, increase employment, promote international trade and attract foreign investment to drive economic growth. Businesses in SEZs receive incentives like duty exemptions, tax holidays and external borrowing
Special Economic Zones of India
A special economic zone is an area in which the business and trade laws are different from the rest of the country. SEZs are located within a country's national borders, and their aims include increasing trade balance, employment, increased investment, job creation and effective administration.
1) Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are designated areas that have more liberal economic laws than the rest of the country in order to encourage investment and job creation.
2) The objectives of SEZs are to create employment opportunities, promote investment, boost exports, generate additional economic activity, and develop infrastructure.
3) SEZs provide various incentives like tax holidays, duty-free imports, single window clearances, and developed industrial spaces to attract businesses. However, some argue that SEZs negatively impact food security, agriculture, and the environment.
The document discusses India's financial sector reforms since the 1990s. It notes that the financial sector has diversified and expanded rapidly, dominated by commercial banks. Major reforms include opening the foreign exchange market, allowing higher exposure limits for banks, and increasing investment limits for small industries. Key laws introduced include the PMLA, IDBI, SEZ, and National Tax Tribunal acts. The reforms represent a major overhaul that has brought India's financial system closer to international standards, though a gradual approach was taken and more reforms are still needed when combined with macroeconomic stability and broader economic reforms.
- Export Processing Zones (EPZs) are special economic zones in Bangladesh that are used exclusively for producing goods for export. They are established by the government to boost exports, foreign investment, employment, and industrialization.
- There are currently 8 government-run EPZs and 2 privately run EPZs in Bangladesh. EPZs provide tax incentives and facilities to attract foreign companies to set up factories.
- EPZs have contributed to Bangladesh's economy by increasing exports, investments, employment opportunities, and technology transfers over the years. However, their overall contribution remains modest compared to the national economy. The government continues working to improve EPZ programs and policies.
The document summarizes the history and development of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It discusses how SEZs evolved from Export Processing Zones and initially operated under foreign trade policy before the SEZ Act was passed in 2005. The Act established a single window clearance system and incentives like tax exemptions for both SEZ units and developers. SEZs have significantly increased India's exports, with export growth from SEZs reaching over 120% in some years. There are now 173 operational SEZs across India.
Msme overview for finance, subsidy & project related support contact - 9861...Radha Krishna Sahoo
India's GDP in 2008-09 was $1.10 trillion with per capita GDP of $830. The majority of employment was in agriculture and services. MSMEs made up a large portion of the economy, with 26.1 million enterprises employing 59.7 million people. Government policies aimed to support MSMEs through credit schemes, technology development, and reducing regulations over time to boost competitiveness.
Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are geographic regions that have economic laws more liberal than typical economic laws. SEZs aim to generate economic activity and promote exports by providing tax exemptions, single window clearances, and other incentives.
The document discusses the history and categories of SEZs. It notes that the concept originated with Puerto Rico in 1947 and was later adopted by countries like Ireland, Taiwan, and notably China, which established large numbers of SEZs. The main categories of SEZs include free trade zones, free zones, industrial parks, free economic zones, and urban enterprise zones.
The key advantages of SEZs in India include tax holidays, duty exemptions, simplified procedures
Civil Services GS Indian Economics Handout 23: EPZs and EOUs in IndiaDr. Subir Maitra
The document discusses the history and objectives of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. Key points include:
- SEZs were introduced in 2000 to overcome shortcomings of prior Export Processing Zones and attract foreign investment through tax incentives and simplified regulations.
- The SEZ Act of 2005 aimed to generate economic activity, promote exports and investment, and create jobs through SEZ development. It established a single window clearance system.
- SEZs and units receive various tax exemptions and import/export incentives to encourage investment. Exports from SEZs have grown substantially since implementation.
The present situation of foreign direct investment in Bangladesh comes next in the report. This part shows us foreign direct investment in Bangladesh is increasing gradually though still not up to the satisfactory level with some necessary statistics. The foreigners perceive Bangladesh as a country of natural disaster and political instability which is another reason for the low flow of invest able funds.
The document discusses Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It defines SEZs as specifically delineated duty-free enclaves deemed to be foreign territory for trade. The objectives of SEZs are to generate economic activity, promote exports and investment, and create jobs. SEZs can be processing or non-processing and have different structures. Incentives for SEZs include tax exemptions, duty-free imports, single window clearances, and facilities like utilities. Potential problems include lack of transparency, payment issues, and use of prime agriculture land.
The document provides an overview of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. It discusses that SEZs aim to generate employment and economic growth through tax incentives for businesses located in designated zones. However, many SEZ projects in India have faced significant protests over land acquisition issues, with farmers arguing their land was taken below market value. While SEZs can provide benefits, the document notes India's 2005 SEZ policy and amendments have been criticized for lacking compensation for land owners and consideration of social impacts. It concludes that for SEZs to succeed, local communities must be made stakeholders in national progress.

FDI & FEMA Reinforcing Indian Economy - 2015Gaurav Goyal
The document discusses the need for foreign direct investment (FDI) in India to support economic growth and development. It notes that while FDI brings capital, technology, jobs and other benefits, attracting FDI is challenging given the global economic slowdown and India's bureaucracy. The government needs to create a predictable environment to attract more of the approximately $18 billion in annual FDI needed to meet GDP growth targets and reduce the current account deficit. Liberalizing sectors like retail and aviation is a start, but further reforms are required.
Why does India need FDI, How will FDI benefit us, What will be the disadvantages? Read everything you wanted to know about Foreign Direct Investment and the role played by Foreign Exchange Management Act, in this Research Report from Resurgent India
FICCI commented positively on the Union Budget 2015-16, saying it laid out a clear roadmap for doubling India's growth rate and set national targets out to 2022.

It concludes that implementing encryption standards like RSA and AES can make transactions more secure and build trust in online banking.
This document analyzes the performance of various modulation schemes for achieving energy efficient communication over fading channels in wireless sensor networks. It finds that for long transmission distances, low-order modulations like BPSK are optimal due to their lower SNR requirements. However, as transmission distance decreases, higher-order modulations like 16-QAM and 64-QAM become more optimal since they can transmit more bits per symbol, outweighing their higher SNR needs. Simulations show lifetime extensions up to 550% are possible in short-range networks by using higher-order modulations instead of just BPSK. The optimal modulation depends on transmission distance and balancing the energy used by electronic components versus power amplifiers.
This document provides a review of mobility management techniques in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). It discusses three modes of communication in VANETs: vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), and hybrid vehicle (HV) communication. For each communication mode, different mobility management schemes are required due to their unique characteristics. The document also discusses mobility management challenges in VANETs and outlines some open research issues in improving mobility management for seamless communication in these dynamic networks.
This document provides a review of different techniques for segmenting brain MRI images to detect tumors. It compares the K-means and Fuzzy C-means clustering algorithms. K-means is an exclusive clustering algorithm that groups data points into distinct clusters, while Fuzzy C-means is an overlapping clustering algorithm that allows data points to belong to multiple clusters. The document finds that Fuzzy C-means requires more time for brain tumor detection compared to other methods like hierarchical clustering or K-means. It also reviews related work applying these clustering algorithms to segment brain MRI images.
1) The document simulates and compares the performance of AODV and DSDV routing protocols in a mobile ad hoc network under three conditions: when users are fixed, when users move towards the base station, and when users move away from the base station.
2) The results show that both protocols have higher packet delivery and lower packet loss when users are either fixed or moving towards the base station, since signal strength is better in those scenarios. Performance degrades when users move away from the base station due to weaker signals.
3) AODV generally has better performance than DSDV, with higher throughput and packet delivery rates observed across the different user mobility conditions.
This document describes the design and implementation of 4-bit QPSK and 256-bit QAM modulation techniques using MATLAB. It compares the two techniques based on SNR, BER, and efficiency. The key steps of implementing each technique in MATLAB are outlined, including generating random bits, modulation, adding noise, and measuring BER. Simulation results show scatter plots and eye diagrams of the modulated signals. A table compares the results, showing that 256-bit QAM provides better performance than 4-bit QPSK. The document concludes that QAM modulation is more effective for digital transmission systems.
The document proposes a hybrid technique using Anisotropic Scale Invariant Feature Transform (A-SIFT) and Robust Ensemble Support Vector Machine (RESVM) to accurately identify faces in images. A-SIFT improves upon traditional SIFT by applying anisotropic scaling to extract richer directional keypoints. Keypoints are processed with RESVM and hypothesis testing to increase accuracy above 95% by repeatedly reprocessing images until the threshold is met. The technique was tested on similar and different facial images and achieved better results than SIFT in retrieval time and reduced keypoints.
This document studies the effects of dielectric superstrate thickness on microstrip patch antenna parameters. Three types of probes-fed patch antennas (rectangular, circular, and square) were designed to operate at 2.4 GHz using Arlondiclad 880 substrate. The antennas were tested with and without an Arlondiclad 880 superstrate of varying thicknesses. It was found that adding a superstrate slightly degraded performance by lowering the resonant frequency and increasing return loss and VSWR, while decreasing bandwidth and gain. Specifically, increasing the superstrate thickness or dielectric constant resulted in greater changes to the antenna parameters.
This document describes a wireless environment monitoring system that utilizes soil energy as a sustainable power source for wireless sensors. The system uses a microbial fuel cell to generate electricity from the microbial activity in soil. Two microbial fuel cells were created using different soil types and various additives to produce different current and voltage outputs. An electronic circuit was designed on a printed circuit board with components like a microcontroller and ZigBee transceiver. Sensors for temperature and humidity were connected to the circuit to monitor the environment wirelessly. The system provides a low-cost way to power remote sensors without needing battery replacement and avoids the high costs of wiring a power source.
1) The document proposes a model for a frequency tunable inverted-F antenna that uses ferrite material.
2) The resonant frequency of the antenna can be significantly shifted from 2.41GHz to 3.15GHz, a 31% shift, by increasing the static magnetic field placed on the ferrite material.
3) Altering the permeability of the ferrite allows tuning of the antenna's resonant frequency without changing the physical dimensions, providing flexibility to operate over a wide frequency range.
This document summarizes a research paper that presents a speech enhancement method using stationary wavelet transform. The method first classifies speech into voiced, unvoiced, and silence regions based on short-time energy. It then applies different thresholding techniques to the wavelet coefficients of each region - modified hard thresholding for voiced speech, semi-soft thresholding for unvoiced speech, and setting coefficients to zero for silence. Experimental results using speech from the TIMIT database corrupted with white Gaussian noise at various SNR levels show improved performance over other popular denoising methods.
This document reviews the design of an energy-optimized wireless sensor node that encrypts data for transmission. It discusses how sensing schemes that group nodes into clusters and transmit aggregated data can reduce energy consumption compared to individual node transmissions. The proposed node design calculates the minimum transmission power needed based on received signal strength and uses a periodic sleep/wake cycle to optimize energy when not sensing or transmitting. It aims to encrypt data at both the node and network level to further optimize energy usage for wireless communication.
This document discusses group consumption modes. It analyzes factors that impact group consumption, including external environmental factors like technological developments enabling new forms of online and offline interactions, as well as internal motivational factors at both the group and individual level. The document then proposes that group consumption modes can be divided into four types based on two dimensions: vertical (group relationship intensity) and horizontal (consumption action period). These four types are instrument-oriented, information-oriented, enjoyment-oriented, and relationship-oriented consumption modes. Finally, the document notes that consumption modes are dynamic and can evolve over time.
The document summarizes a study of different microstrip patch antenna configurations with slotted ground planes. Three antenna designs were proposed and their performance evaluated through simulation: a conventional square patch, an elliptical patch, and a star-shaped patch. All antennas were mounted on an FR4 substrate. The effects of adding different slot patterns to the ground plane on resonance frequency, bandwidth, gain and efficiency were analyzed parametrically. Key findings were that reshaping the patch and adding slots increased bandwidth and shifted resonance frequency. The elliptical and star patches in particular performed better than the conventional design. Three antenna configurations were selected for fabrication and measurement based on the simulations: a conventional patch with a slot under the patch, an elliptical patch with slots
1) The document describes a study conducted to improve call drop rates in a GSM network through RF optimization.
2) Drive testing was performed before and after optimization using TEMS software to record network parameters like RxLevel, RxQuality, and events.
3) Analysis found call drops were occurring due to issues like handover failures between sectors, interference from adjacent channels, and overshooting due to antenna tilt.
4) Corrective actions taken included defining neighbors between sectors, adjusting frequencies to reduce interference, and lowering the mechanical tilt of an antenna.
5) Post-optimization drive testing showed improvements in RxLevel, RxQuality, and a reduction in dropped calls.
This document describes the design of an intelligent autonomous wheeled robot that uses RF transmission for communication. The robot has two modes - automatic mode where it can make its own decisions, and user control mode where a user can control it remotely. It is designed using a microcontroller and can perform tasks like object recognition using computer vision and color detection in MATLAB, as well as wall painting using pneumatic systems. The robot's movement is controlled by DC motors and it uses sensors like ultrasonic sensors and gas sensors to navigate autonomously. RF transmission allows communication between the robot and a remote control unit. The overall aim is to develop a low-cost robotic system for industrial applications like material handling.
This document reviews cryptography techniques to secure the Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol in mobile ad-hoc networks. It discusses various types of attacks on AODV like impersonation, denial of service, eavesdropping, black hole attacks, wormhole attacks, and Sybil attacks. It then proposes using the RC6 cryptography algorithm to secure AODV by encrypting data packets and detecting and removing malicious nodes launching black hole attacks. Simulation results show that after applying RC6, the packet delivery ratio and throughput of AODV increase while delay decreases, improving the security and performance of the network under attack.
The document describes a proposed modification to the conventional Booth multiplier that aims to increase its speed by applying concepts from Vedic mathematics. Specifically, it utilizes the Urdhva Tiryakbhyam formula to generate all partial products concurrently rather than sequentially. The proposed 8x8 bit multiplier was coded in VHDL, simulated, and found to have a path delay 44.35% lower than a conventional Booth multiplier, demonstrating its potential for higher speed.

L'indice de performance des ports à conteneurs de l'année 2023SPATPortToamasina
Une évaluation comparable de la performance basée sur le temps d'escale des navires
L'objectif de l'ICPP est d'identifier les domaines d'amélioration qui peuvent en fin de compte bénéficier à toutes les parties concernées, des compagnies maritimes aux gouvernements nationaux en passant par les consommateurs. Il est conçu pour servir de point de référence aux principaux acteurs de l'économie mondiale, notamment les autorités et les opérateurs portuaires, les gouvernements nationaux, les organisations supranationales, les agences de développement, les divers intérêts maritimes et d'autres acteurs publics et privés du commerce, de la logistique et des services de la chaîne d'approvisionnement.
Le développement de l'ICPP repose sur le temps total passé par les porte-conteneurs dans les ports, de la manière expliquée dans les sections suivantes du rapport, et comme dans les itérations précédentes de l'ICPP. Cette quatrième itération utilise des données pour l'année civile complète 2023. Elle poursuit le changement introduit l'année dernière en n'incluant que les ports qui ont eu un minimum de 24 escales valides au cours de la période de 12 mois de l'étude. Le nombre de ports inclus dans l'ICPP 2023 est de 405.
Comme dans les éditions précédentes de l'ICPP, la production du classement fait appel à deux approches méthodologiques différentes : une approche administrative, ou technique, une méthodologie pragmatique reflétant les connaissances et le jugement des experts ; et une approche statistique, utilisant l'analyse factorielle (AF), ou plus précisément la factorisation matricielle. L'utilisation de ces deux approches vise à garantir que le classement des performances des ports à conteneurs reflète le plus fidèlement possible les performances réelles des ports, tout en étant statistiquement robuste.

I. Introduction
SEZ, the acronym of Special Economic Zone. SEZ is a geographical region that has economic laws
different from a country‟s generally applicable economic laws, for the purpose of economic development and
growth with the help of foreign investment. Literally SEZ means, a geographically demarcated region that has
economic laws that are more liberal than the country‟s typical economic laws and where all the units therein
have specific privileges. SEZs are specifically delineated duty-free enclaves and are deemed to be foreign
territory for the purposes of trade operations, duties and tariffs.1
The Present paper attempts to measure the level of economic quake felt by Indian economy in the 21st
century with the subheading SEZ – In Global context, SEZ - In Indian context, Comparison of State-wise
approvals of SEZ and Sector-wise approval of SEZ and concluded with role of SEZ in Units Approvals, Export
performance, Employment generation and Investment.
SEZ – In Global Context
According to world bank estimate, as on 2007, there are 3000 projects taking place in SEZs across 120
countries worldwide and it has been grown in reap and bounds in the recent past. In 1896, the first industrial
Park was set up in Manchester, called Free Trade Zone, designed to promote the free trade, conceptually
improved by Hong Kong during the Post-Second world War, created economic quake elsewhere thereafter. In
1929, the first Special Economic Zone which was called as Special Zone was introduced in Spain with the
intention of improving the exports by value addition to the raw materials available in that country, conceptually
improved by Deng Xiaoping, revolutionary veteran of China, for the past three decades, gave an economic
quake to the concept of SEZ from1979. He used the SEZ as the economic quake to attain the success of his
liberalized economic policies. Later the other developing countries, like UAE, Jordan, Philippines, Malaysia,
Russia, Kazakhstan and South Korea are also chosen the Chinese path in their economies in terms of economic
liberalization. Even most of the countries in south Asia – Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan have tried
to promote their export.
SEZ – In Indian Context
Right from the beginning of 21st
century, India has progressively opened up its economy to face the
new challenges effectively and utilize the opportunities positively. Considering the importance to enhance
foreign investment and promote exports from the country. Realizing the need that the field of business play
must be available to domestic enterprises and manufacturers to be competitive globally, the government had
announced the introduction of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) policy on April 2000, through a revision in the
Export and Import policy (EXIM) 1997-2002. The objective of SEZs include making available goods and
services free of taxes and duties supported by integrated infrastructure for export production, quick approval
mechanisms, and a package of incentives to attract foreign and domestic investments for promoting exports. The
SEZ policy suffers from lack of central legislation, rigid labour laws and multi clearance of approval etc. In
order to overcome such lacunae, the government of India enacted SEZ act 2005 to give a long term and stable
policy framework with minimum regulation. It came into force from February 2006. The main objectives of the
SEZs are:
(a) Generation of additional economic activity;
(b) Promotion of exports of goods and services;
(c) Promotion of investment from domestic and foreign sources;
(d) Creation of employment opportunities;
(e) Development of infrastructure facilities.2
In fact, India was the first Asian country to recognize the importance and effectiveness of Export
Processing Zone (EPZ) and the first EPZ came into being in 1965 in Kandla, Gujarat. But, since then there has
not been done much to the strengthening of EPZs in India. In 2000, therefore, the government replaced the
earlier regime of EPZ by a new scheme of SEZs, which encompassed a number of potential benefits that were
missing in the earlier scheme. In May 2005, the SEZ Act2 was passed by the Parliament and SEZ Rules 3 came
into force from February 10, 2006, which not only simplified procedures but also extended single window

clearance for matters relating to Central as well as state governments. The SEZ Rules provide for different
minimum land requirement for different class of SEZs. The promotion of SEZs is expected to tackle wide range
of structural bottlenecks created by monetary, fiscal, taxation, trade, tariff and labour policies, aside from
overcoming complex procedures and infrastructure deficiencies (Aggarwal, 2006). It has been argued that since
development of infrastructure requires huge capital investment and as implementation of structural reforms is
time-consuming process, the establishment of SEZs would be the only realistic strategy governing the process of
industrialization. Although SEZs offer numerous benefits, there are also various positive as well as negative
features associated with the establishment of SEZs in India. It is, therefore, essential to analyse not only the
potential benefits of SEZs but also the likely impact of establishment of SEZs on agricultural production,
employment, water and food security.
Salient Features of SEZ Act
SEZs in India are not only expected to bring large flow of foreign direct investment but also domestic
investment, which will help in generating additional economic activity in the form of creating employment
opportunities, infrastructure development and enhancing productive capacity as well as capabilities. The salient
features of the SEZ Act mainly revolve around
a) Satisfying the needs of all major stakeholders in an SEZ, including developers, operators, suppliers,
residents, etc.,
b) Making provisions of single window clearance mechanism
c) Providing attractive fiscal incentive package,
d) Establishing free trade and warehousing zones with a view to develop internationally competitive
infrastructure facilities to augment import and export of commodities
e) Setting up of off shore banking units, and
f) Facilitating public private participation towards development of infrastructure.
The SEZ Rules provide for different minimum land requirement for different class of SEZs. Every SEZ
is divided into a processing area where alone the SEZ units would come up and the non-processing area where
the supporting infrastructure is to be created. The main purpose of framing SEZ rules to provide:
a) " Simplified procedures for development, operation, and maintenance of the Special Economic Zones and
for setting up units and conducting business in SEZs;
b) Single window clearance for setting up of an SEZ;
c) Single window clearance for setting up a unit in a Special Economic Zone;
d) Single Window clearance on matters relating to Central as well as State Governments;
e) Simplified compliance procedures and documentation with an emphasis on self certification
In order to attract investments into the SEZs in India, number of incentives and facilities have been
offered to the SEZs are duty free import and domestic procurement of goods for development, operation and
maintenance of SEZ units, 100% Income tax exemption on export income for SEZ units under section 10AA of
the Income Tax Act for first 5 years thereafter 50% of the ploughed back export profit for next 5 years,
exemption from minimum alternate tax under section 115JB of the Income Tax Act, External Commercial
borrowing by SEZ units up to US $.500 million in a year without any maturity restrictions through recognized
banking channels, exemption from Central Sales Tax, single window clearance for Central and state level
approvals and exemption from state sales tax and other levies as extended by the respective State Government.
In addition to that there are certain major incentives and facilities available to SEZ developers, right
from, exemption from customs and excise duties for development of SEZs for authorized operations approved
by the BOA, Income tax exemption on the income derived from the business of development of the SEZ in a
block of 10 years in 15 years under section 80-IAB of the Income Tax Act, exemption from minimum alternate
tax under 115JB of the Income Tax Act, exemption from dividend distribution tax under Section 115O of the
Income Tax Act, exemption from Central Sales Tax (CST) up to exemption from Service Tax (Section 7, 26
and Second schedule of SEZ Act) etc. (GOI, 2011)
A successful SEZ investment in India would benefit by noting the following investment related issues:
a) relief and rehabilitation of the displaced people is a serious issue;
b) investors need to attract the attention of state governments, and the investors and the concerned state
governments must discover synergies, which they find mutually worth pursuing;
c) investors should stay out of partisan politics because ruling parties frequently lose power in India; and
d) it helps if the concerned state has ministers in central ministries who can help clear infrastructure
projects such as roads, ports, airports and rail connections favorable to investors in that state.

III. State wise Break up of SEZ
Different states have different SEZ stories to tell. While some have done exceedingly well, others seem
to be going nowhere.

Due to wide range of incentives, facilities and many other relaxations amended in SEZs,
majority of the states in the country are motivated to set up SEZs to enjoy the advantages generated through
these zones. Presently, there were 588 formal approvals of SEZ across 22 states in the country. 3 Out of these
386 SEZs are notified. Among Various states Andra Pradesh ranks first in the country with 4700 hectares of
area under SEZs. The Other States like Tamilnadu, Maharashta and Gujarat are likely to have significant area
under SEZ.
It is to be noted that Out of total 588 approvals the selected states such as Andra Pradesh, Tamilnadu,
Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala, Karnataka, Madya Pradesh, Hariyana and Maharastra have
contributed 499 approvals and the rest of the states contributed for remaining 89 approvals. It is unfortunate that
some of the states have not shown any interest in SEZ. The following table shows state wise distribution of SEZ
approvals.
IV. Sector wise Break up of SEZ
Those 588 formal approvals of SEZs, distributed among 28 industrial sectors in the country. Out of this
386 SEZs are Notified. Among several industries IT/ITES ranks first in the country, nearly 55% of the the total
formal approvals and other industries like Biotech, petro chemical, Textiles, FTWZ and Gems & Jewellary 4
likely to have significant share under SEZ.

VI. End Notes
1. Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is defined as "a specifically delineated duty free enclave and shall be deemed
to be foreign territory for the purposes of trade operations and duties and tariffs". SEZs are an
acknowledgement of the potential of export-led development strategy in accelerating economic growth.
2. Taken from the introduction to Special Economic Zones in India: http://www.sezindia.nic.in/
HTMLS/about.htm (last viewed on 12th July 2007).
3. As on October13, 2011, there were 588 formal approvals of SEZs in the country. Out of this, 386 SEZs
were notified. The number of valid In-Principle approvals was 49
4. The new law allows the SEZs to have area of the order of 1000 hectares for multi-product zones, 100
hectares for product specific zones and only 10 hectares for IT, gems and jewellery and biotechnology
zones.
