5. REGULATORY AND POLICY FRAMEWORK
03
SIR Act 2009
It enables the State Government to establish, develop, operate and regulate SIRs
The Government is empowered to declare Investment Region or Industrial Area
SIR to have an area of more than 100 sq. km. and the Industrial Area will be more than 50 sq. km
A 4-tier administrative mechanism is set up for establishment, operation, regulation and management
The administrative mechanism comprises:
• An Apex Authority (GIDB) – highest policy making body. It acts as the single window system and the first
contact for setting up any economic activity or amenity in the SIR
• Regional Development Authority (RDA) for each SIR – to address ground level issues of development &
regulation. The RDA will make its own regulations for building, construction and development.
• Project Development Agency – the Government has already formed such a project development company
viz. Gujarat Industrial Corridor Company (GICC)
• Project specific SPVs
It provides an effective framework for private sector participation in infrastructure
by drawing upon the Gujarat Infrastructure Development (GID) Act – 1999
