Ahmedabad, September 20, 2025: Aaiji Group has announced an investment of ₹100 crore to develop affordable residential and commercial spaces along the Lothal Dholera corridor over the next two years. The initiative comes as the region experiences strong economic growth, supported by major tourism, heritage and industrial projects as well as significant improvements in transport and connectivity.

“The Lothal Dholera belt is where history meets the future,” said Lalit Parihar, Managing Director of Aaiji Group. “Dholera SIR is on track to become India’s next global industrial investment destination, while Lothal is evolving into a world class heritage and tourism hub. Together these centres will create significant employment and an unprecedented demand for quality real estate. Our ₹100 crore investment reflects our confidence in the corridor’s potential and our commitment to deliver modern, high quality developments for residents, businesses and investors.”

At Lothal, the National Maritime Heritage Complex is progressing as planned and is being developed to international museum standards. The first phase is scheduled to open in 2025, with the entire complex expected to be completed by 2028. The Lothal Dholera corridor is set to become a major tourism and economic hub, with Lothal creating about 2,000 jobs through the National Maritime Heritage Complex and Dholera expected to generate nearly 22,000 jobs from industrial and global investments. The complex will also include a Maritime University offering specialised degrees and international exchange programmes, encouraging academic study and supporting the development of local cottage industries.

Dholera Special Investment Region is simultaneously emerging as one of India’s leading industrial hubs. More than one hundred companies have already established a presence there, including Tata Electronics with its $10.9 billion semiconductor manufacturing plant and NEXTGEN Hightech Semiconductor. These large scale projects are expected to create thousands of high skilled jobs and drive strong demand for housing and commercial infrastructure. The corridor will gain further momentum with the upcoming Dholera Expressway scheduled for completion in 2025, the new international airport, the Dedicated Freight Corridor and the Vande Metro network, all of which will improve connectivity with Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar and major national trade routes.
