The Dholera web names 120 developers. 10 of them are in a government file.

We took every company the Dholera web calls a developer, 120 of them, and looked each one up in the three Dholera SIR registers the government actually publishes. 10 were there. The other 110 may be perfectly real companies, and that is the point: from a search result you cannot tell the two apart, and this site is the twelve ranked lists and the seven census pages that let you.

These start from the advertising and work backwards to the file. Nothing here rates a company. Every page states the column it counts and the date the source was read.

• 1The web against the registerHow many of the companies advertising as Dholera developers are on a government register?
• 2The names with no recordWhich companies called Dholera developers have no government record?
• 3Ranked by web presenceWhich Dholera developers are named most often online?
• 4Names with only their own sourcesWhich Dholera developer names appear only on their own material?
• 5Who writes the top-developer listsWho writes the top Dholera developers lists, and can they be trusted?
• 6One company, many printed namesWhy does the same Dholera developer appear under several names?
• 7The industrial names that are not developersIs Tata a Dholera developer, and are the other big names developers?

Source: a census of 354 name mentions across 238 distinct printed names, collected 4 August 2026, with the government record attached to each name where one exists

These start from the file. Each one sorts on a single published government column, names the column at the top of the page, and links every row back to the record it came from.

12 lists · 39 companies, 33 GujRERA registrations, 10 awarded contracts · source GujRERA public portal, DICDL annual reports FY2023-24 and FY2024-25, Gazette of India SEZ notification · last verified 4 August 2026

No paid placement. No company can buy a position, a listing or a removal. Nothing on this site is for sale, no developer, broker or agency has paid for anything here, and no advertising is carried. Rank is computed from the public column named on this page and from nothing else.

The three registers are kept by different bodies for different purposes and they are not joined to each other anywhere in public. A promoter who registers a plotting scheme under RERA is recorded by the Gujarat Real Estate Regulatory Authority. A company that is allotted industrial land is named, if at all, in the developer's annual report. A contractor that wins a construction package appears in a third place again. This site puts those three lists side by side, ranks each published column separately, and never combines unlike columns into a score.

Appearing in more registers is not a compliment and appearing in one is not a fault. It is a measurement of public footprint, nothing more. Nothing here rates a company, recommends one, or says anything about price, quality or return. Every ranked list names the single column it sorts on and links every row back to the government record it came from.

Full company set at the register · how the lists are built at methodology · why a company may be absent at not listed

Of 39 companies, 1 appears in two registers and none appears in three. SEKSARIA BUILDCON LLP is registered as a promoter with GujRERA and also holds a plot awarded by DICDL e-auction, with the letter of award dated 24 December 2024. Every other company sits in exactly one register. None of the nine DICDL contractors holds a GujRERA registration in Dholera SIR, and none of the 22 registered promoters holds a DICDL contract, so the companies that build the city and the companies that sell plots in it are two populations that do not meet on the public record at all.

Two further pairs would change that count if they were the same company, and we do not know that they are. 7 OAK DEVELOPERS and 7 OAK DEVELOPERS PRIVATE LIMITED share a name once the legal form is removed. GAP ASSOCIATES PRIVATE LIMITED and GAP Associates share a name once the legal form is removed. We do not merge them. The rule and the risk are set out on the methodology page.

Ranked in full at top Dholera real estate companies · source GujRERA and DICDL, last verified 4 August 2026

Companies by the year of their first public record, 2018 to 2026. Source: dates in the three registers.

A first public record is not an incorporation date. None of these registers publishes one, except for Dholera Industrial City Development Limited, whose annual report gives its incorporation as 28 January 2016. Where a register states an event date, such as a RERA registration date or a letter of award date, that date is used. Where it states only the date of the document that names the company, that document date is used and the entry is tagged DOCUMENT DATE rather than EVENT.

Detail and coverage limits at the three registers

1. No per-company land area for the four industrial allottees. The DICDL annual report names Tata Semiconductor Manufacturing, Renew Photovoltaics, Polycab India and Inox Air Products and then gives one combined figure, 530 acres allotted, at 31 March 2025. It publishes no acreage, no plot number and no price for any of them.
2. No tender reference number on any award. Every one of the 11 awarded contracts in the source set has a null tender id, so awards cannot be joined back to the tender notices.
3. The allottee list is explicitly not exhaustive. The annual report ends it with the words other prominent industrial proponents, so companies holding land in Dholera SIR are certainly missing from this register.
4. Nothing here is a company registry. There is no CIN, no incorporation date and no directorship in these sources, so two companies with similar names cannot be told apart by identifier. They are held apart by name, which is the weakest possible test.

These are the terms the government documents use. Each one is expanded here because a register is unreadable if you do not already work in one, and you should not have to.

Dholera SIR

Dholera Special Investment Region. A specific area of land south west of Ahmedabad that the Gujarat government notified for industrial development, with a boundary drawn on a map. A plot is either inside that boundary or it is not, and everything on this site refers only to the inside.

GujRERA

The Gujarat Real Estate Regulatory Authority. Before a developer may advertise or sell most projects, it has to register the project with this body, which then publishes the registration on a portal anyone can search for free.

Promoter

The register's word for the developer. It is the company or person named on a project registration as the party building and selling it, and it is the name we rank, because it is the name the government file carries.

DICDL

Dholera Industrial City Development Limited. The government-owned company that builds the roads, water and power inside Dholera SIR and allots land to other companies. Its annual reports are audited and published, which is where the land and contract figures on this site come from.

Allotment and allottee

An allotment is land handed over by the development authority rather than bought from a private owner. The company that receives it is the allottee. An allotment is recorded in a government document, which is why it can be listed here at all.

Letter of award

The document that tells a bidder it has won, issued before the sale or the contract is signed. It carries a date, and that date is often the only public date attached to a plot or a contract.

E-auction

A public online auction. DICDL sells some plots this way and publishes the result, so the buyer and the date are on the record where a private sale would not be.

SEZ

Special Economic Zone. An area given its own customs and tax treatment, created by a notice printed in the Gazette of India. The notice names the land and the company, which is why it can be used as a source.

Gazette of India

The government's official journal. A notification is not in force until it is printed there, so the gazette is the primary record rather than a report of one.

LLP

Limited Liability Partnership. A legal form in which partners run the business but are not personally liable for its debts beyond what they put in.

Square metre and square foot

One square metre is about 10.76 square feet. Land in these registers is printed in square metres or hectares, never in square feet, so nothing here is converted.
