GAP Group’s flagship integrated township project, Akhilam in Dholera Special Investment Region (SIR) has received environmental clearance from Gujarat’s State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA), which functions under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
The environmental clearance, granted after the SEIAA’s appraisal committee recommendation, paves the way for the development of a modern residential and commercial township with a total built-up area of 1.03 lakh sq mt. The project will feature three towers and three blocks comprising 1,000 premium 1 BHK studio apartments and over 250 office and commercial spaces.
Commenting on the development, Ambrish Parajiya, Managing Director of GAP Group said, “Receiving the environmental clearance is a key step forward in bringing our vision for Akhilam to life. Dholera is on the verge of becoming one of India’s most dynamic urban and industrial hubs, and with Akhilam, we are building a township that will complement this growth by offering a complete, future-ready urban ecosystem.”
Spread across 42,000 square metres, Akhilam will include residential towers, a modern business park, corporate office spaces, financial service hubs and exclusive lifestyle amenities such as curated hospitality zones and high-street retail. The broader activation area of Dholera SIR, where Akhilam is located, is expected to generate more than 1.5 lakh jobs by 2030, driving strong demand for quality housing and integrated workspaces.
Dholera’s development is backed by mega infrastructure projects such as the Ahmedabad–Dholera Expressway, the greenfield international airport and the Dedicated Freight Corridor.
Dholera has gained momentum with the ongoing development of India’s largest semiconductor fabrication facility by a joint venture of the Tata Group and Taiwan’s PSMC. Major projects of Renew Energy, INOX Air and Polycab are also taking shape in the activation zone.
Since its inception in 2014, GAP Group has played a pioneering role in shaping the Dholera activation zone. It is credited with delivering the first RERA-approved villa project and industrial park and the first government-auctioned mixed-use plot win in the zone. The environmental clearance for Akhilam further strengthens GAP Group’s position among the early movers shaping the next generation of smart, sustainable urban infrastructure in Dholera.
