Says it has made significant progress in securing the minimum required land for the project

Steel maker Posco India has sought an extension of the in-principle approval for its multi-product special economic zone (SEZ), proposed to be set up near Paradeep in coastal Odisha. The approval for the project expires on October 25. The steel maker has requested the Odisha government to forward its no-objection certificate (NOC) to the board of approvals under the Union commerce ministry, as required under Rule-4 of SEZ Rules, 2006.
