MIDC Industrial Land – Engine for Industrialization in Maharashtra

MIDC Land title is the most sought after industrial land title in Maharashtra. With land being acquired by state government for industrial activities, it is free of any complication when it comes to a simple matter of permissions for manufacturing.

However, a caveat is, there is a correlation between the nature of operations and the location / habitation of an industrial area and its surroundings. In more direct terms, companies which carry out hazardous operations will be allowed operations in specific locations only. However, for the majority of manufacturing industry companies, most locations are open.

MIDC Industrial Land also circumvents complications related to land aggregation and land use conversions, which are subject to some of the most rigorous laws in the state.

Another way to get an industry established is to work with industrial park developers who take up large land parcels and get it approved for industrial use from MIDC and other governing bodies. Here, the company will be a customer of a privately operated industrial park. These are of two categroes again; parks that develop and allot land to the customer on long lease subject to MIDC rules and parks that only provides space under lease terms.

By supporting private investment willing to develop and lease industrial space, MIDC increased industrialization in the state by enabling many companies who were looking to lease instead of heavy capital deployment.

With MIDCs long term vision, Maharashtra State continues to have a lot of industrial activity, and with more hi tech plants being built.

Today, logistics infrastructure has also come a long way with permissions given in MIDC parks. Developers have built high quality sheds with high strength floors, high roofs and good planning for truck movement. This is in turn made logistics operations more efficient with high volume centralized operations taking place.
