Nashik Wine Park is a grape wine park administered by the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation. It is in the district of
Nashik, Maharashtra State, India. It contains 97 plots developed for winery activities with average plot size of 2000 square meters. The
role of MIDC is to provide land at reasonable rates and to build infrastructure such as good roads, water supplies, power and telecom
facilities and a winery in the park.
In accordance with the Maharashtra Grape Processing Industrial Policy of September 2001 the government of Maharashtra has declared
the Nashik Wine Park as a preferential area and a small-scale industry with a 100% exemption from excise duty for ten years and relief in
sales tax levels. The government has established a Wine Institute to train the farmers and Maharashtra Grape Board to promote the
industry and exports. There are about 34 wine projects in Maharashtra; out of that, 20 are only in Nashik district. The famous names are
Sula, Vinsura.

Objectives

Set up industrial areas for planned and systematic industrial development

To function as a special planning authority in development of industrial areas
"Prosperity to all through Industrialisation" is the corporate philosophy of MIDC[1]

History
After the formation of Maharashtra state on May 1, 1960, the government of Maharashtra constituted a "Board of Industrial
Development" (BID) on October 1, 1960, under the chairmanship of Shri. S. G. Barve, I.C.S. The committees recommendations received in
the industries department were taken up for implementation. As per the Borkar Committee's recommendations, development of Ulhas
Valley Water Supply was entrusted to the Board of Industrial Development (BID). The BID framed the legislation; it was introduced
before the state legislation and passed in the form of "Maharashtra Industrial Act" which gave birth to MIDC, as a separate corporation on
August 1, 1962.[2] A small ceremony at Wagle estate, Thane, under the chairmanship of the Chief Minister Shri Y.B. Chavan, marked the
birthday of MIDC on August 1, 1962.[3]
The key historical policy decisions taken by MIDC changed the socioeconomic scenario of the state as its activities spread in the interior.
The important policy decision of setting up "independent filtered, potable water supply system of adequate capacity" as essential
infrastructure for industrial development was the most intelligent step taken by MIDC in the beginning. It stabilised the population base
near the industrial areas. The simultaneously strategic decision taken to provide water supply to nearby population from the capabilities
created by MIDC of their own water supply system resulted in phenomenal urban growth in the nearby small towns and villages. The
growth of Kalyan complex and Pimpri-Chinchwad are results of this key policy decision taken by MIDC.
Up to date 233 industrial areas are developed by MIDC in Maharashtra on 53120 hectors. With the experience of 45 years, MIDC
observed that certain industries are required to be provided some specialized facilities. For the growth of industries and specialized
parks/industrial clusters are developed with specialized infrastructure facilities. In this way IT & BT Parks, Wine Parks, Textile Parks,
Chemical Zones, Food Parks, Leather Park, Floriculture Park and Electronic Zone etc. are developed by the MIDC.
Considering the international standard facilities required to attract multinational companies, five-star industrial areas are developed by
MIDC at nine locations in Maharashtra. Considering the export potential of the products delineated duty-free, which is to be deemed to be
foreign territory for the purpose of trade operations and duties and traffics, special economic zones are being developed by MIDC to
provide hassle free environment for exporters. Maharashtra got overwhelming 74 Special Economic Zone approvals from the
government of India which is in first position compare to other states in India.
The planned and systematic industrial development in the State of Maharashtra has continuously placed Maharashtra in first position in
India for the highest productivity, economics performance, business efficiency, government efficiency, infrastructures and overall
competitiveness. As per the World Competitiveness Report 2006, Maharashtra ranked 37, ahead of South Korea, South Africa,
Philippines, Greece, Brazil, Italy, Russia and Indonesia.
In the state, MIDC has demarcated 57,650 plots and allotted 48,701 plots to entrepreneurs. There are 28918 industries in production.
MIDC has provided the water supply scheme 2240.83 MLD capacity and water consumption is 1314.73 MLD in the MIDC areas in the
state. MIDC has provided water supply pipelines of 3238.60 km to cater the demand of the industries in Maharashtra. The annual
revenue generated from the water supply is Rs.432.00 crores. 2422.82 km of roads are constructed by MIDC for providing good quality
approach to the industries. The development expenditure of Rs.3096.75 crores is incurred for the infrastructure works by MIDC. [2]
Regional locations
The properties like plot, built-up sheds and built-up warehouses are leased out by MIDC for industrial, commercial or residential
purposes. The allotment can be done at regional offices located at 16 locations across the state:

Proposed Pune International Airport

A brand new Pune International Airport for the Pune metropolitan region has been on the horizon for a long time, and the Government of
Maharashtra has entrusted the responsibility to MIDC for executing the Pune International Airport project. The airport would replace the
existing Pune Airport. The area under consideration is between Chakan and Rajgurunagar, namely around the villages of Chandus and
Shiroli at a distance of 40 km from Pune along the Pune-Nashik National highway (NH-50). MIDC is conducting surveys and completing
other formalities to get the required permissions to start executing the project.[5]
