PERFORMANCE OF AEZs u u u Exim India Total investments are about Rs. 810 crores in 60 AEZs. Exports of USD 1. 10 bn during the last 5 years. Both investments and exports are less than half of the originally projected levels. More needs to be done in the area of infrastructure. AEZs for gherkins, basmati rice, mango pulp, grape, walnuts, onions in different states have done well in terms of exports. Products with no ready local market have a better chance of success. 16
