Dholera’s Land Prices Rise Tenfold in a Decade

30 May 2025 CW Team

Dholera, Gujarat’s flagship smart city under the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC), has experienced a staggering tenfold increase in land prices over the past decade, making it one of India’s fastest-growing real estate hubs.

Backed by robust government planning and large-scale infrastructure projects like the Ahmedabad-Dholera Expressway and international cargo airport—both set to become operational in 2025—Dholera’s transformation has driven investor confidence. Prices in Town Planning Scheme–1 have surged from Rs 0.06–0.07 million per square yard in 2015 to Rs 0.65–0.7 million in 2025. Similar growth patterns are seen across all schemes and surrounding areas.

The rise in interest is fuelled by strategic location, growing connectivity, and major developments like Tata Electronics’ Rs 91 billion semiconductor project. Over one hundred companies have already committed to the region.

With infrastructure on ground and strong non-resident Indian interest from countries like the USA, UK, UAE, and Singapore, Dholera continues to draw both industrial and real estate investment.
