JNPA has established a multi-product port based Special Economic Zone (SEZ), in line with the objective of port-led industrialization, of Sagarmala vision, under the Ministry of Port, Shipping and Waterways’. This SEZ is strategically located and boasts excellent connectivity via waterways, airways and roadways, making it an ideal hub for export-oriented industries in India. The port has made significant investments in state-of-art infrastructure to support the industries. JNPA is the developer and the Special Planning Authority for the SEZ, having its own Development Control and Promotion Regulations (DCPR), sanctioned by the Government of Maharashtra.
Key features enhancing the ease of doing business include a streamlined Single Window Clearance approval mechanism for essential services such as building permits, electricity, water, and fire safety. Moreover, JNPA SEZ has obtained all necessary clearances and permissions, including Environmental Clearance from the Government of India (GoI), Consent-to-Establish and Consent-to-Operate from the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB), and an Electricity Distribution License from the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC).
The SEZ's attractiveness is further bolstered by its proximity to critical infrastructure projects, including the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), Suburban rail to Uran, Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) rail corridor and upcoming transport infrastructure like Navi Mumbai International Airport and Virar-Alibaug Multi-Modal Corridor. These connections position JNPA SEZ as a premier manufacturing destination, aiming to set new benchmarks in port-led industrialization in India.
The SEZ covers a total land area of 277.38 hectares (685 acres), with approximately 163 hectares (403 acres) available as leasable land. The SEZ is operational from June 24, 2020. The SEZ allots plots for a 60-year lease period through E-Tender cum E-auction.
As of now, 54 plots have been issued LOI comprising 307 Acres of land, with 9 units and 1 Free Trade Warehousing Zone (FTWZ) already in operation. Other Units/ Co-developers are in different stages of development like awaiting approvals or operational documentation process. The operational units are engaged in diverse sectors such as warehousing, food processing, manufacturing, and trading.
Conceptually, a MMLP is a terminal situated in the hinterland servicing a region connected with one or several ports by rail and/or road transport and is offering specialized services between the MMLP and the overseas destinations. Normally the MMLP is container-oriented and s\upplies all logistics facilities including various Value addition opportunities, which are needed for shipping and forwarding agents in a port. The MMLP is situated in Sindi village, Wardha district of Maharashtra and is proposed to be constructed over an area of 140 hectares in a phased development, by SPV of JNPA and NHAI (NHLML).
The planned ICD cum industrial park encompasses the various components of an envisioned successful multimodal logistics park. Concepts, such as the defined and planned above, in conjunction with a focus on the right regulatory and institutional support are the way forward to reduce logistics costs and help build a robust logistics sector in India. This will aid in the development of systems and networks that will address the issues of underdeveloped material handling infrastructure and inefficient modal mix.
MoU between JNPT and NHAI was executed for MMLP on 22.10.2021. As per the provisions of MoU, the SPV has been formed and the further development of MMLP project will be executed by NHAI/NHLML being a lead member of SPV. The MMLP will be monitored by NHLML.M/s. DC Multimodal Park Pvt. Ltd. is selected as operator By NHAI.

The MMLP is situated in Jalna near the Aurangabad district of Maharashtra and is proposed to be constructed over an area of 182 hectares in a phased development, by SPV of JNPA and NHAI (NHLML).
The presence of industrial regions with existing and upcoming enterprises helps establish synergies between the industry and its logistic requirement and create an efficient network that shall enable reduced logistics to cost; improved freight aggregation, distribution, storage; and ensure a faster delivery to customers. Thus, the proposed dry cum industrial park has the potential to evolve as a model for other such similar Multimodal logistics parks. At the same time, the development of a concept entails the right combination of essential components such as transport connectivity, industrial park facilities, information technology systems, policy / regulatory reforms.
