Back

Strategic Location & Connectivity

  • Prime positioning within the Delhi–Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) grants Dholera access to major trade and industrial networks. It sits just ~100 km southwest of Ahmedabad, with highly efficient links planned via expressways, rail, and air.

  • The Ahmedabad–Dholera Expressway—a 109 km, 4-lane (expandable to 8) access-controlled road—should be ready by 2024.

  • The Dholera International Airport, expected to be operational by December 2025, will drastically boost regional connectivity, handling both passengers and cargo.

Government Support & Smart-City Infrastructure

  • Dholera is India’s first planned greenfield smart city with Platinum-level smart city standards, underpinned by both central and state governments.

  • The project benefits from a Special Investment Region (SIR) framework, offering streamlined approvals, SIR-specific incentives, and a single-window clearance mechanism.

  • Smart infrastructure includes an Integrated Command and Control Center (ICCC), IoT infrastructure, smart utilities, waste management systems, and underground service corridors.

Industrial & Economic Growth

  • Dholera houses multiple industrial clusters—from semiconductors, manufacturing, defense, electronics, to renewable energy.

  • Major investments include:

    • Tsingshan Group investing USD 3 billion.

    • Vedanta–Foxconn, Tata Electronics (with PSMC) establishing semiconductor units.

    • Jabil’s ₹1,000 crore electronics manufacturing setup.

  • A planned 5 GW solar park and Tata Power’s 400 MW solar plant are testament to its renewable-energy ambitions.

Price Appreciation & Investment Potential

  • Land prices have soared—10x growth over the past decade, thanks to rising infrastructure and interest.

  • Forecasts suggest 3x–10x returns across 10–15 years, with current land rates in 2025 around ₹600–₹1,500/sq yd, expected to rise to ₹3,000–₹5,000/sq yd by 2030.

  • Experts anticipate 300–500% rise in plot prices in activation zones by 2030, with residential land potentially reaching ₹10,000+/sq yd long-term.
