A city planned for industry
Dholera is a roughly 920 sq km greenfield smart city on the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, developed by DSIRDA with the National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation. Phase one across TPS-1 and TPS-2 covers 158 sq km.
Infrastructure before factories
Roads, underground utilities, water and sewage treatment, ICT networks and solar-power infrastructure were planned to give industries a plug-and-play base.
Industries taking shape
The emerging ecosystem covers several sectors.
- Semiconductors
- Tata Electronics with PSMC and approved Crystal Matrix display technology
- Supply chain
- Proposed Indo-Taiwan Industrial Park
- Aviation
- International airport, MRO and aviation zone
- Energy
- Dholera solar park
- Logistics
- Customs-port status, cargo and freight-rail plans
Global attention
Japan's Ambassador led a delegation of Japanese companies on a site visit, and the Governor of the Japan Bank for International Cooperation toured the region to review the Tata fab. The UAE signed a Letter of Intent concerning potential partnership in the airport, port and township.
The road ahead
Building factories for the world requires skilled workers, reliable power, fast logistics and stable policy. Gujarat's skills mission, the Ahmedabad-Dholera Expressway, the airport and proposed semi-high-speed rail aim to close those gaps; current timelines should be checked with official sources.
