Maharashtra is the first state to adopt the Model SEA 2016, with few state-
specific amendments to remain at the forefront of industrial development and
reforms. It is the first state to change the 70 year old statute. Considering the
fact that Maharashtra is having two leading commercial and industrial cities of
the state – Mumbai and Pune, this is surely a long step forward.
While making the adaptation of Model SEA 2016 and while repealing the earlier
applicable statute of 1948, few changes have been introduced.
