NRIs and OCIs can buy residential and commercial property in India, but not agricultural land. Inside Dholera, confirm a parcel's land-use and non-agricultural status before committing.
Verification
- Confirm the town-planning-scheme status and Final Plot number.
- Check the GUJRERA registration for any plotted development on gujrera.gujarat.gov.in.
- Verify the sale deed, mother deed, a 30-year encumbrance certificate, the 7/12 extract and tax receipts.
Costs
Effective stamp duty is 4.9% plus 1% registration in Gujarat. A registration-fee waiver is documented for property in a woman's sole name.
The verification every buyer should run
Dholera is a regulated, planned region, so due diligence is specific, not generic. Before any payment on a plot, confirm five things. One, the town-planning-scheme status and the Final Plot number of the exact parcel, matched to the survey number. Two, non-agricultural status, which applies automatically to land inside an approved TP scheme but not to raw land marketed as being "in the SIR". Three, the GUJRERA registration of any plotted development, checked live on gujrera.gujarat.gov.in. Four, a clean title chain: the sale deed, the mother deed, a 30-year encumbrance certificate, the 7/12 extract and up-to-date tax receipts. Five, the promoter's actual delivery record, not its marketing. If any of these cannot be produced, treat that as the answer.
How this page is sourced
Everything on this site is held to one standard so you can trust it enough to act on. Every figure is tagged by where it comes from: green for government or official sources, amber for national or trade press, and red for broker or unverified claims, which we flag rather than repeat as fact. Every figure carries a date, because Dholera moves and a number that was right last year may not hold now. Anything framed as a future event, an opening, a first chip, a completion, stays labelled as a target until a government source confirms it happened. We do not sell plots, we do not publish invented reviews or registration numbers, and where a fact is not reliably available we say so instead of guessing. The full method and the primary sources are on the sources and methodology page.
Read the tags as a confidence meter. A green figure is something you can plan against today. An amber figure is credible but worth confirming before you build a decision on it. A red figure is a claim we are showing you so that you can recognise it, not one we stand behind. When two sources disagree, we say so and show the more authoritative one rather than averaging them into a number that is nobody's actual figure. The point of all of this is simple: you should be able to act on what you read here, and check any of it yourself, without wondering whether a number was quietly invented to make the picture look better than it is.
