The Cooperative Movement in India started with Cooperative Credit Societies Act 10 of 1904. The agricultural cooperative credit societies were registered under this Act. As this Act did not provide organization of non-credit cooperative societies such as marketing and consumer societies, it was replaced with Cooperative Societies Act of 1912. This Act envisaged promotion of thrift and self help among the agriculturists, artisans who were the persons of limited means and organization of federal and non-credit cooperative societies. After formation of the State of Andhra Pradesh as a result of re-organization of States, the A.P. Cooperative Societies Act VII of 1964 was enacted to meet the requirements of different classes of societies which were felt necessary to promote the economic interest of persons with limited means. This Act came into force from 01-08-1964 as per G.O.Ms.No.1924, Food & Agriculture Department, dated 25-07-1964.
