Dholera Contracts
11 awards with a named winner / 6 tenders still open / Updated 2026-08-04

Which companies won government work at Dholera, and for how much

What changed, and when

This page keeps two kinds of history. The first is what this site itself has changed since it was last published, so that anyone quoting a figure can see whether it has moved. The site is at version C, published 2026-08-04.

The second is more interesting: what changed between the two audited annual reports. Nine differences are set out below, and two of them are places where the reports flatly contradict each other and nobody has reconciled them.

01C2026-08-11One page added, on the consultants DICDL appoints to supervise its contractors. That was the last question the two datasets could answer that did not already have a sheet of its own, so it is the only page this issue adds. No figure changed and no address changed. Every page published before this issue is still at the same address it was published at.New sheet, plus the footer on every page
02B2026-08-04Seven pages added, all built from the same two datasets: how a contract is awarded, price or project cost, building sizes, water contracts, the completion targets DICDL prints, claims that were checked and left out, and what the words mean. No figure changed. The whole site was reset onto a near-white ground with one accent colour, and the copy was rewritten so a reader who has never seen a tender document can follow it.Every page
03A2026-08-04First issue. 17 contract records and 225 audited facts published, sourced to the DICDL annual reports for FY2023-24 and FY2024-25 and the DICDL live tender page.All pages

Source: the build record for this site. Each revision states the date, the sheets touched and the reason. All rows last verified 2026-08-04 against the cited page.

Corrections that arrive with a document and a page number are applied and logged here, including the ones that make an earlier row wrong. A revision is never quietly overwritten.

The lane count row is a straight contradiction between two audited documents about the same road. It is left standing because resolving it would mean choosing one government publication over another without any basis for the choice.

03

Three things that have never been published

Three absences that have persisted across both reports

  • No completion dates. Neither report publishes a scheduled completion date or a contract duration for any DICDL works contract, in either year.
  • No physical progress. Neither report publishes a percentage complete for any of DICDL's own eight social infrastructure projects. The only percentage in either document belongs to an NHAI road.
  • No per allottee land data. Neither report attaches an area or a price to any named allottee, in either year, and the one land price statement is the phrase at discounted rate with no rate given.

These are the three facts that would make a Dholera contract register genuinely useful, and none of them has been published in two consecutive audited years. That absence is the finding recorded on the delivery schedule.
