Dholera TP6: the long-term expansion scheme
TP Scheme 6 (TP6) covers a reported area of about 67 sq km and is described in portal commentary as a long-term expansion zone, the furthest-horizon of the six schemes. It sits well outside the ~153 sq km Phase-I core of TP1 and TP2, which means its on-ground development is tied to Dholera's later phases rather than the current build-out. Its draft is reported sanctioned, like all six schemes. The honest framing for TP6 is that it is a patience play: entry may be lower, but so is near-term infrastructure, and the timeline stretches across Dholera's roughly 30-year phasing. Only a genuinely long-horizon buyer should consider it, and the same Final Plot, title and RERA checks apply.
Every large planned city has an edge that will be built last, and in Dholera's six-scheme structure TP6 is described as that edge. It is a substantial scheme, reported at around 67 sq km, but its identity is defined less by a specific anchor and more by its position on the timeline. TP6 is the long-horizon end of the plan. This page explains what is reported about it, why the expansion label is commentary rather than zoning, and why patience is the only sensible posture for a buyer here.
As with every scheme, begin with the anchor page on what a TP scheme is. The Final Plot logic there matters most for a scheme like TP6, where the near-term infrastructure is thin and the paperwork is doing more of the work of proving a plot is real.
About 67 sq km, reported
TP6 is reported to cover roughly 67 sq km. That places it in the middle of the six schemes by size: larger than TP1's roughly 51 sq km, smaller than TP5's roughly 75 and TP2's roughly 102. We tag the figure reported rather than confirmed, consistent with the other scheme areas, because it comes from planning summaries and press rather than a primary sanction certificate a buyer can read directly. TP6 is not a small residual scheme; it is a meaningful chunk of the master plan held for a later phase.
The 'long-term expansion' character
Portal commentary describes TP6 as a long-term expansion zone. Unlike TP2's anchors or TP5's Hebatpur industrial framing, TP6 does not carry a strong single-use identity in the commentary. Its defining feature is temporal: it is the scheme most associated with Dholera's later development, the land that fills in as the city matures rather than in the first wave. We present this as portal-sourced commentary, not official zoning, because Dholera's binding land-use percentages are not reliably sourced and sit only inside DSIRDA's Final Development Plan documents. So the expansion label describes where TP6 falls on the timeline, not a legally fixed use for any parcel.
Where TP6 sits in the phasing
Dholera is being built in three phases over roughly 30 years. Phase 1, around 2020 to 2025, centred on the Activation Area inside TP2. Phase 2, around 2025 to 2030, is associated with the airport and industry. Phase 3, roughly 2030 to the early 2040s, is when the full planned area is meant to come together, and the end-year is stated inconsistently as 2040 or 2042 across sources, which is why we label it reported. TP6, as the long-term expansion scheme, is furthest from the current build-out and closest to that final phase. Read the structure on our phases and timeline guide and the master plan.
This position has a clear implication. The source-consistent near-term price drivers, proximity to the developed Activation Area and to active trunk infrastructure, apply least to TP6 of all the schemes. Its case rests on the whole Dholera thesis playing out over decades, not on any milestone in the next few years. That is a legitimate bet for the right buyer, but it is a fundamentally different bet from buying near the Activation Area today.

What a buyer should do in TP6
The verification standard does not soften just because the horizon is long. Confirm the Final Plot number and the sanctioned TP proof, verify title through the sale deed, the 7/12 extract and a 30-year encumbrance search, and confirm RERA registration by number where a project is being sold. On top of that, be especially alert to the timeline mismatch: a long-expansion scheme marketed as a quick win is a red flag in itself. Map your own hold period honestly against the phases using our investment horizon planner, and run the checks in our verification guide.
The bottom line on TP6: a reported ~67 sq km scheme whose defining feature is that it is built last. Take the long-term expansion label as commentary about timing, not as zoning. It suits only patient, long-horizon buyers who understand they are betting on the full Dholera plan maturing over decades. The Final Plot number and title still decide whether a specific plot is real.
