- (a) to (c): Land is a State subject. Land for Special Economic Zones (SEZs) is procured as per the policy and procedures of the respective State Governments. The Central  Government  does  not  allot  any  land  for  SEZs.  The  Board  of  Approval  for SEZs only considers those proposals, which have been duly recommended by the State  Government.    A  statement  showing  the  State-wise  notified  land  area,  area utilized and area lying vacant in respect of 58 SEZs notified during the last five years and the current year is at Annexure-I .
- (d): No  employment  generation and investments target is fixed for  SEZs. States/UTs-wise exports, employment and investment made from SEZs during the last four years and current financial year is at Annexure-II.
