Dholera map guide
Reading the SIR map
A Dholera map shows the SIR boundary, the six town-planning schemes and the main corridors.
- SIR
- Special Investment Region. A large area the Gujarat government has set aside for industry under its own 2009 law, with its own planning authority instead of the usual local one.
- TP scheme
- Town planning scheme. The authority pools all the land in one area, lays out the roads and services, then hands each owner back a smaller but serviced plot.
- Activation Area
- The first 22.5 sq km, inside TP Scheme 2, which was serviced ahead of everything else, so its roads, water, power and drainage went in first.
- CRZ
- Coastal Regulation Zone. Coastal land where central rules limit what can be built.
- DSIRDA
- The statutory authority that plans and regulates Dholera SIR, in place of a municipal corporation.
- DICDL
- The company that actually builds Dholera. Gujarat holds 51% of it and the central government holds 49% through the NICDC Trust.
- NICDC
- The central agency that runs India's industrial corridor programme, which Dholera sits inside.
How to read it
The map distinguishes the ~920 sq km planning envelope from the ~422 sq km urban-developable area, locates the 22.5 sq km Activation Area inside TP2, and shows the expressway, planned rail and airport. Coastal Regulation Zone areas limit development along the shore. Use the map to place a parcel relative to the Activation Area and the corridors, which drive value. Confirmed

Dholera SIR in one paragraph
Dholera SIR is a planned industrial city covering about 920 sq km, of which roughly 422 sq km is marked for urban development. That land is being delivered as six town planning schemes, spread over roughly three decades. DSIRDA is the authority that plans and regulates the region, and DICDL is the company that builds it, owned 51% by Gujarat and 49% by the central government through the NICDC Trust. Dholera is the flagship node of the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor. That is the frame every entry here sits in. The fuller version is in What Dholera SIR is and the master plan.

This is a reference, so it is written to be checked rather than believed. Each figure is marked Confirmed when a government or official record says it, Reported when the press or trade said it, and Unverified when only a seller says it. Each one carries a date, because Dholera keeps moving and a number that was right last year may not be right now. Anything still in the future is written as a target until a government source confirms it happened, and where a fact is not reliably available we say so instead of guessing.
None of this is legal, tax or investment advice, and no government source promises that land here will rise in value. If you are looking at one specific plot, treat everything on this page as background and confirm that parcel's own GUJRERA registration, title and price yourself before you pay. If a figure here has gone out of date, tell us on the contact page and we will correct it. All the figures gathered in one place are in Dholera in numbers, and the full method is on the methodology page.
