Logistics in India represents 14% of GDP and employs 2.2 crore people; India handles 4.6 billion tonnes of products annually at an overall cost of INR 9.5 lakh crores. Maharashtra has a vast network including 17,757 km of national highways and 28,461 km of State highways, a railway network of 11,631 km with 548 railway goods sheds, 2 major and 48 minor ports, 53 inland container depots and container freight stations, 8 private cargo terminals and 11 air cargo terminals. The State has a warehousing capacity of 2.23 MMTPA, cold storage of 1.03 MTPA, port capacity of 1,320 million tonnes and more than 116 logistics training centres.

Cost of logistics in India is higher at 13%–14% of GDP compared to developed economies (7%–8%) and BRIC nations (9%–10%), largely because of dependency on road for freight movement. The Maharashtra Logistics Policy 2024 is the State's response, and carries as a unique feature an Integrated Logistics Master Plan for ready reference of investors and industries.

A. Policy Mission

The Maharashtra Logistics Policy 2024 shall play a key role in obtaining the State's goal of becoming US$ 1 trillion by 2028. The policy aims to reduce costs in logistics through a comprehensive logistics master plan keeping a developmental view of the next 10 years, prepared with the objective of promoting the logistics sector in alignment with the National Logistics Policy.

B. Policy Vision

To establish Maharashtra as a world-class logistics hub and a leading centre for trade and transportation by focusing on creating an efficient integrated logistics infrastructure, improve the competitiveness of the local logistics industry by reducing the time for transportation and cutting down expenditure for logistics activities, attract foreign investment, and promote sustainability through innovation and use of new age technologies.

C. Policy Targets

  • To develop more than 10,000 acres of dedicated logistics infrastructure across the state by 2029.
  • To develop 01 International Logistics Mega Hub, 01 National Logistics Mega Hub, 05 State Logistics Hubs, 05 Regional Logistics Hubs and 25 District Logistics Nodes.
  • To ensure the cost of logistics is reduced further by minimum 5% as compared to existing 14–15%.
  • To reduce the time taken for logistics through provision of an Integrated Logistics Masterplan, efficient multimodal logistics, and technology interventions like AI and Block Chain technology.
  • To reduce carbon footprints by promoting green initiatives in the logistics sector.

D. Policy Validity

Maharashtra Logistics Policy 2024 will remain in effect for five years from the date of notification and will remain in effect until the next policy is announced. The policy shall be reviewed every two years to assess its effectiveness, and may be amended prior to the prescribed period to address changes in laws, regulations or to achieve its desired outcomes.

E. Eligibility

Eligible organisations for various incentives offered under the policy: any legal entity registered as Proprietary or Partnership firm, Cooperative Society, Registered Company under the Companies Act 2013, Farmer Producer Companies, Public Sector Undertakings, other state organisations, Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), Trusts and Alternate Investment Funds (AIF), Public Private Partnership (PPP) based projects, Joint Ventures (JVs) or consortium of companies created for the purpose of developing the Small, Large, Mega, Ultra Mega and Multi-storey Logistics Parks and Integrated Truck Terminals.

Park Developer Incentives

3. Fiscal Incentives for Logistics Park Developers

3.1.1 Special Capital Incentives

Small, Large, Mega, Ultra Mega Logistics Parks and Integrated Truck Terminals will be incentivised with special capital incentives in Zone-1 and Zone-2 areas only.

ClassificationMinimum Area (Acres)Minimum Investment in FCI (Rs. Crores)Capital Subsidy (%)Maximum Cap of Assistance (Rs. Crores)No. of parks to be promotedDevelopment Period
Small Logistics Park051020%2First 50 (Max 2 in each district)2 Yrs
Large Logistics Park5010015%1593 Yrs
Mega Logistics Park10020015%3064 Yrs
Ultra Mega Logistics Park20040010%4035 Yrs
Integrated Truck Terminals5 (3 acres if the area is adjacent to the National Highway)520%1First 100 (Max 4 in each district)1 Yr
Two constraints on this table decide whether a project gets anything at all. First, the special capital incentive runs in Zone 1 and Zone 2 only — the policy states in terms that these parks "will be incentivized with special capital incentives in Zone-1 and Zone-2 areas only", and the masterplan section reinforces it by promising incentives to parks developed in the earmarked Zone 1 and Zone 2 regions while saying nothing of the sort for Zone 3. Since Zone 2 is defined as Ratnagiri–Sindhudurg, Dhule–Nandurbar and the remaining D and D+ areas under PSI 2019, the more developed A, B and C areas — which include the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and Pune — fall into Zone 3 and therefore draw the non-financial benefits but not the capital subsidy. Second, the "No. of parks to be promoted" column limits how many projects in each class the State intends to support over the policy period; for Small Logistics Parks and Integrated Truck Terminals the policy makes the limiting sense explicit by writing "First 50" and "First 100" with per-district sub-limits, while for the Large, Mega and Ultra Mega classes it states only the bare figures 9, 6 and 3. The incentive is calculated on Fixed Capital Investment; land cost does not form part of FCI, except that for Integrated Truck Terminals 25% of the cost of land is treated as FCI.

3.1.2 Power at Industrial Rate

  • Electricity will be made available at industrial rates for activities other than business and commercial facilities for all eligible and approved logistics parks.
  • As per provisions of the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission, the Power Distribution Franchises Model can be accepted for approved logistics parks.
  • Production of electricity using non-conventional energy sources, its distribution and selling will be allowed for logistics parks.
  • An additional 10% incentive will be given to these types of parks to promote green logistics parks under the state's green initiatives.
  • Logistics parks will be allowed to purchase electricity from any other electricity generation company as open access power, as per prevailing provisions in MERC.
  • Line-In-Line-Out of power from the transmission lines to the substation / switching station will be allowed.
  • Uninterrupted 24x7 power supply will be made available to the logistics parks.

3.1.3 Development of Critical Industrial Infrastructure

The Government has earmarked budgetary provisions to address industrial infrastructure gaps in first and last mile connectivity, with financial support capped at INR 5 crore for connected infrastructure of road and water. A committee constituted under the Hon. Chief Secretary will take the final decision on sanctioning projects on a case-by-case basis along with details of financial assistance.

3.1.4 Support to Green Logistics Initiatives

  • Eligible entities may avail incentives for goods carriers in concurrence with the Maharashtra EV Policy.
  • Park developers may avail 100% road tax exemption for purchase of at least 50 Hybrid, Plug-in-Electric or Electric Cargo Vehicles of minimum load capacity of at least 1 MT per vehicle.
