MAHARASHTRA STATE INDUSTRIAL POLICY, 2017

Maharashtra Agro-Processing and Agri-Marketing Promotion Policy

State government announced a Package Scheme of Incentives. The

scheme covers cold storages and mechanized food/agro processing
industries in addition to other industries.
It offers Financial Incentives linked to fixed capital, Industrial Promotion
Subsidy (IPS), exemption from electricity duty, waiver of stamp duty,
power tariff subsidy, capital subsidy to MSME for technology up
gradation; quality certification; cleaner production etc. Quantum of these
incentives varies with turnover and location of the industry.

Single window clearances

Digitalizing Land Records: Property registration application and payment has

been made online
Single window form available for processing of investment application
Single log in for providing seamless access to investors
The registration process to avail incentives has been simplified and the
number of documents required has been reduced substantially.

The Union Ministry of Food Processing has listed Maharashtra among the 4
states with potential to derive maximum benefits from policy reforms in food
processing.
The inadequate food processing sector also is a primary reason for poor
remunerations farmers get. They cannot bargain in absence of robust market
linkages.
