At the Stakeholder Interface Meet organised by EPCES, SEZ Stakeholders highlighted broader industry issues such as parity with DTA schemes, operational hurdles in the new Procurement Certificate workflow, QCO applicability on SEZ-to-DTA sales, and sector-specific impacts like countervailing duties imposed by the US. The discussion reinforced the need to streamline processes and strengthen competitiveness across the SEZ ecosystem.
