Monthly Reporting Requirement for Special Economic Zones mandates standardized submission of operational, export, and proposal data to the Department. A monthly reporting requirement compels Development Commissioners to submit a prescribed report to the Department of Commerce by the ninth of each month, covering zone performance metrics (counts of SEZs and units, land vacancy, and detailed export data including port wise and sensitive commodity reporting with month on month comparisons and a defined threshold for surge or decline), governance actions (Unit Approval Committee outcomes, proposals for new SEZs and units, meetings with developers and authorities), and administrative items such as fund availability, pending litigation, vigilance measures, grievance redressal, and pending issues with governments or the Department.
