As of mid-2026, Dholera Smart City has moved from paper to partial reality, but it is early. The roughly 22.5 sq km Activation Area is the most developed zone, with trunk roads, utilities and the ABCD command centre in place. The Ahmedabad-Dholera Expressway opened on 31 March 2026, cutting the drive to around 45 minutes.
Dholera International Airport and the Tata Electronics semiconductor fab are under active construction but not yet operational. The wider 920 sq km region is planned in phases toward 2040, so most of it is still farmland and land banking today.
