Solution

The correct option is A Kandla
Export Processing Zones are industrial estates, which form enclaves from the domestic tariff areas (DTA). These are usually situated near airports or seaports. They are intended to provide an internationally competitive duty-free environment for export production at low cost. This enables the products of EPZs to be competitive, both quality-wise and price-wise in the international markets.
