The Goa government has announced a plan to change industrial land from leasehold to freehold, aiming to simplify ownership and attract more investors.
The Goa administration has unveiled a policy to convert industrial land held under leasehold agreements into freehold titles.
Under the new scheme, existing leaseholders will be offered the option to purchase the land outright, eliminating the need for periodic lease renewals.
Proponents say the move will streamline land ownership, reduce bureaucratic hurdles and make Goa a more attractive destination for industrial investment.
The government has indicated that the conversion process will be phased, with detailed guidelines to be released by the end of the fiscal year.
