Dholera SIR is India’s first platinum-rated industrial smart city, strategically located 100 km southwest of Ahmedabad. Spanning 920 sq. km. and covering 22 villages, it is being developed as a global manufacturing and industrial hub with world-class infrastructure. Governed by DSIRDA and implemented by DICDL (a joint venture of NICDC Trust and Government of Gujarat), Dholera offers plug-and-play infrastructure, seamless connectivity via expressway, metro, and an upcoming international airport. Target sectors include defence, aviation, electronics, pharmaceuticals, auto, and agro-processing. With a focus on sustainability, digitization, and innovation, Dholera is designed to drive economic growth and deliver a high quality of life.
To promote sustainable and inclusive development, Dholera SIR has adopted Town Planning Schemes (TPS) under the Gujarat Town Planning and Urban Development Act, 1976. The region is divided into six TPS zones, all of which have received approval. TPS 1 and 2, covering approximately 153 sq. km. in total, form the core of Phase-I development. These schemes ensure well-planned access to social infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, and commercial spaces—enhancing quality of life for residents and creating a strong foundation for economic growth.
