Why Investing in Dholera is a Game-Changer

Gujarat Government’s Vision for Dholera

The Gujarat government has made substantial investments in Dholera Special Investment Region (SIR), positioning it as a major industrial and smart city hub. As part of the 2025 budget, the government has earmarked ₹24,705 crore for infrastructure development, including roads, buildings, and connectivity projects. Additionally, ₹200 crore has been allocated for residential townships and social infrastructure like hospitals and schools.

One of the most significant investments is Tata Electronics’ ₹91,000 crore AI-enabled semiconductor plant, being developed in partnership with Taiwan’s Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation. This project is expected to significantly boost India’s semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. Moreover, the government has committed ₹12,000 crore toward renewable energy initiatives, which include the development of a 4,400 MW Ultra-Mega Solar Park.
Beyond government investments, leading companies are making major commitments in Dholera. Recently, Jabil signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Gujarat government to establish an electronics manufacturing services (EMS) unit, investing ₹1,000 crore. This facility will focus on networking, capital goods, automotive, and other allied industries, and is expected to create around 5,000 jobs.
Furthermore, infrastructure projects such as the Ahmedabad-Dholera Expressway, set to open in early 2025, and the upcoming Dholera International Airport, targeting cargo operations by December 2025 and full completion by 2026, are expected to enhance the region’s industrial attractiveness.
These investments reinforce Dholera’s strategic role in Gujarat’s Viksit Gujarat 2047 vision, positioning it as a hub for cutting-edge industries, smart urban development, and large-scale manufacturing.

The Gujarat government has also introduced a Semiconductor Policy, offering 40% capital expenditure subsidy, 75% land subsidy for the first 200 acres, and a ₹2 per unit power subsidy to attract high-tech industries to Dholera. The region is well-equipped with 23,550 MW of conventional power, 16,588 MW of renewable energy, and desalination plants to ensure a steady supply of ultrapure water, essential for chip fabrication.
