Dholera Solar Park
Ultra-mega solar power park
The Dholera Solar Park (Dholera Ultra-Mega Solar Power Park) is a large solar power project associated with the SIR.
| Ultimate target | 5,000 MW (~by 2030) |
|---|---|
| Phase-I sanctioned | 1,000 MW |
| Commissioned | ~300 MW (Tata Power) |
| Agency | Gujarat Power Corporation Ltd |
- 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.
- NICDC
- The central agency that runs India's industrial corridor programme, which Dholera sits inside.
- 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.
- 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.
- DMIC
- The Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, the national industrial corridor programme Dholera is a node of.
- GUJRERA
- Gujarat's property regulator. A plotted project that has to register with it gets a number you can look up on the regulator's own website.
Capacity and status
The ultimate announced target is 5,000 MW by around 2030, which is a target and not installed capacity. The NICDC ledger states that 300 MW of the 1,000 MW first phase, awarded to Tata Power, has been commissioned. Some secondary sources claim higher commissioned totals, which are not reconciled against the official figure, so the reliable number is about 300 MW operational. Confirmed
This article follows Dholerapedia's sourcing standard: every figure is tagged Confirmed (government or official), Reported (press or trade) or Unverified (broker), and dated. Anything framed as a future event is labelled a target until a government source confirms it. Where a fact is not reliably available, we say so rather than estimate. See the methodology.

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.
