Advantages of this adoption

Free movement and exchange of goods throughout the territory of the country is essential for the economic unity of the nation

Therefore, in all federations, an attempt is made through constitutional provisions to prevent local barriers to economic activity, to remove the impediments in the way of inter-state trade and commerce and thus to make the country as one in economic resources.

Thus, the base of freedom of trade and commerce was adopted from Australian Constitution with amendments.
