Growth model · 2018 to 2031

The corridor is being built in a known order.

Roads first, then the airport and the fab, then rail, then the sea link. Each step shortens the distance between this plot and a market. We carry a status against every item, because approved is not built, and built is not the same as open.

Timeline

01

Fifteen dated events, four statuses.

Filter by what is done, what is under construction, what is approved with money behind it, and what is still a proposal at DPR stage.

Compiled from Government of India and Government of Gujarat releases, NHAI, Indian Railways, Tata Electronics and reporting by DeshGujarat, Business Standard and others, as of September 2026. Target dates belong to the agencies that set them.

Access, measured in hours

02

What each project does to the clock.

Land value follows access. Here is the same journey from the park before and after each piece of the corridor, as bands rather than single numbers, because traffic and the route you pick move them.

Road bands from reported journey times on the old route and the expressway; rail and Kalpasar bands are our reading of published speeds and distances and remain indicative until the lines exist.

Watch · Kalpasar

The dam that would put Surat an hour away.

A 60 km dam across the Gulf of Khambhat, a freshwater reservoir behind it, and a multi-lane road and rail crossing on the crest, landing on the Bhavnagar side with a flank to NH 751. Reports in September 2026 put the estimate at ₹1.57 lakh crore and the reservoir at 13,000 MCM, with an Indo-Dutch expert group under consideration. Still a proposal at DPR stage; still the biggest item on this page.

Demand engines

03

Four kinds of buyer the pin attracts.

A growth model for land is really a model of who will want to build next to you. These are the four engines around Kala Talav, with what each one is likely to need.

ENGINE 01 · DHOLERA ANCILLARIES

Suppliers to the fab and Semicon City.

Tata Electronics has publicly sought 450 suppliers for Dholera. Gases, specialty chemicals, packaging, cleanroom consumables, precision machining, maintenance contractors. Land inside the SIR is bulk and TP-zoned; a supplier wanting two acres with a city behind it looks down the highway. The park is 46 km away on that road.

Semiconductor ancillariesEngineeringChemicalsLogistics

ENGINE 02 · PORT AND SEA

Import, export and coastal cargo.

A lock-gated port with container, Ro-Ro and liquid berths nineteen kilometres away, a RoPax link to Surat, and a 65 km freight rail line under survey. Warehousing, container yards, cold chain, agro and food processing, and any unit whose freight bill decides its margin.

WarehousingContainer manufacturingAgro & foodCold chain

ENGINE 03 · NIRMA AND ALANG

Chemical downstream and steel upstream.

Soda ash, caustic soda, chlorine and bromine come out of Kalatalav eight kilometres east; steel plate, pipes and machinery come out of Alang an hour south, which the state wants to double to 9 million LDT by 2035. Units that consume one and feed the other price their inputs at the gate.

ENGINE 04 · THE CITY’S OWN INDUSTRY

Bhavnagar’s ten thousand units, moving out and up.

Plastics, diamonds, rolling mills, ship-spares traders and engineering shops that outgrew city plots and want highway frontage, a compliant layout and the 2026 incentive window. This is the demand that exists today, without waiting for a single corridor project.

The honest comparison

Inside the SIR, an old GIDC estate, or beside the corridor.

Three different products for three different buyers. We sell the third, and we would rather you chose it for the right reasons.

Scenario explorer

05

Your assumption, compounded. Not our forecast.

No one can promise you a land price. What we can do is let you test your own view of the corridor against a purchase value and a horizon, and see what that view implies. Change the rate; the curve follows you.

₹25 lakh to ₹20 crore

Implied value

This explorer applies a rate you choose to a value you enter. It is not a forecast, an estimate or an indication of past or future prices at Ocean Industrial Park or anywhere else. Land is illiquid and its value can fall. Take independent financial advice.
