Dholera Smart City Area: Master Plan Zoning & Acreage Breakdown

The Dholera Smart City area covers a massive 920 square kilometers (approx. 2,27,330 acres), making it India’s largest greenfield industrial smart city. The core of this development is the 22.54 square kilometer (approx. 5,570 acres) Activation Area, designed specifically for immediate industrial operations. The remaining region is systematically divided into six Town Planning (TP) schemes under the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) framework.

Key Zoning Sectors inside the Developable Area

The 422 sq. km planned developable area is divided under a strict, non-speculative land-use model: 1. Industrial Zone (35% of Planned Developable Area): Dedicated to high-density cleanroom manufacturing, aerospace plants, data center parks, and EV battery hubs. 2. Residential Zone (26% of Planned Developable Area): Designed to support the incoming workforce with modern townships, co-living zones, and high-density apartments. 3. Green & Recreational Buffers (12% of Planned Developable Area): Buffer belts running along arterial roads and the Sabarmati Riverfront to ensure sustainable, eco-friendly urban development. 4. HAC & Commercial Zone (10% of Planned Developable Area): High-density vertical corridors along major 55-meter and 70-meter roads, allowing high FSI (up to 5.0) for commercial high-rises.


Factual Growth Metrics for Area Land Buyers

The structured layout of the Dholera Smart City area ensures that plotted land values appreciate steadily: * Appreciation Stability: Plots in the core Activation Area and adjacent TP1 / TP2 corridors exhibit a solid 10% to 15% annual growth (and up to 12% to 18% p.a. for premium HAC land). * Acreage Safety: Because all schemes undergo formal reconstitution (converting OP to FP), buyers are protected against traditional rural land encroachment. * Strategic Proximity: Purchasing plots within 3 to 5 kilometers of the Tata Semiconductor Fab or the Dholera cargo runway ensures high long-term rental demand.
