About Dholera
DholeraSpecial InvestmentRegion.
A planned industrial and urban development region in Gujarat, designed around large-scale infrastructure, manufacturing, logistics, and supporting urban development.
Overview
What exactly is Dholera SIR?
Dholera Special Investment Region, commonly referred to as Dholera SIR, is a large-scale planned development region in Gujarat. It is being developed with an emphasis on industrial activity, manufacturing, infrastructure, logistics, and urban development.
The development is structured around planned zones and infrastructure rather than conventional unplanned urban expansion. Industrial areas, utilities, transportation networks, and supporting urban facilities form part of the overall development framework.
The wider Dholera SIR covers approximately 920 square kilometres. Within this larger region, a 22.54 square kilometre Activation Area was identified for initial infrastructure development.
