What we could not find · 20 declared gaps
The twenty things this site does not know
Every site about buying land tells you what it knows. This page is the other half: the twenty places where a government source ought to publish a figure and does not, written out word for word so you can see exactly where the floor gives way.
The largest is property tax inside Dholera Special Investment Region. The 2009 Act makes the region a deemed industrial township and lets the regional authority act as the taxing authority, and no government source we examined publishes a rate, an assessment formula, a due date or a payment portal. Anyone quoting you a Dholera property tax figure is quoting something that is not published.
The first gap is worth reading before the rest. No record in this register rests on a blog. Three local files that look official turned out to be blog pages from a private site and were thrown out, and the Dholera allotment facts were taken from the company's own policy document and the official Dholera site instead.
The twenty, word for word
Gap 0. BLOG-SOURCE FLAG - NO record in this dataset rests on a blog
BLOG-SOURCE FLAG - NO record in this dataset rests on a blog. Three local artifacts that LOOK official are in fact blog pages from dholerasmartcityinfo.com and were deliberately excluded: lap.html (titled 'Dholera Land Allotment Policy'), fh.html ('Freehold vs Leasehold Property in Dholera - Which is Better?') and nma.html ('Old Tenure vs. New Tenure Land in Gujarat: Restrictions, Premium & Procedure'). Every allotment-policy fact here comes instead from land_allotment_policy.pdf and dholera.gujarat.gov.in.
This one is about the sources themselves rather than a single step.
Gap 1. Digitally signed RoR (7/12, 8-A) fee: NOT PUBLISHED. Neither anyror.gujarat.gov.in nor
Digitally signed RoR (7/12, 8-A) fee: NOT PUBLISHED. Neither anyror.gujarat.gov.in nor the Revenue Department IORA service table states an amount, and iora.gujarat.gov.in returned HTTP 503 (Retry-After 3600) on every attempt on 2026-08-04, so the in-portal fee screen could not be read. Recorded as null.
Steps affected: 04. Get a digitally signed land record.
Gap 2. Online Encumbrance Certificate fee: NOT PUBLISHED. The official ec_help.pdf says only
Online Encumbrance Certificate fee: NOT PUBLISHED. The official ec_help.pdf says only that 'the required fee must be paid online' with no figure. The offline EC fee of Rs. 100 IS sourced (gARVI_FAQ.pdf p.4). Recorded as null for the online route.
Steps affected: 07. Encumbrance certificate online.
Gap 3. Online Index-2 certified copy fee: NOT PUBLISHED as a number
Online Index-2 certified copy fee: NOT PUBLISHED as a number. gARVI_online_index2_help_file.pdf states the application fee, Index-2 fee and copy fee are auto-computed from the number of copies. Only the offline figures (Rs. 3 court fee + Rs. 20 copy fee + Rs. 300 court fee ticket) are sourced.
Steps affected: 08. Certified copy of Index-2.
Gap 4. Encumbrance Certificate offline application FORM NUMBER: not stated in gARVI_FAQ.pdf
Encumbrance Certificate offline application FORM NUMBER: not stated in gARVI_FAQ.pdf. Recorded as null.

Steps affected: 11. Permission to buy farmland.
Gap 6. Premium rate for converting new-tenure / impartible land to old tenure (section 43
Premium rate for converting new-tenure / impartible land to old tenure (section 43 Tenancy Act, section 65 route): NOT PUBLISHED as a rate. It is fixed case by case by the Collector. The Revenue Department subject page links only 'Government Circulars / Resolutions / Orders for Premium for New Tenure Land (From 1947 to 2008)' as a bundle. No percentage is asserted.
Steps affected: 13. Premium to lift a tenure restriction.
Gap 7. NA permission: the CONVERSION TAX and NA ASSESSMENT amounts are not in Resolution
NA permission: the CONVERSION TAX and NA ASSESSMENT amounts are not in Resolution NAP/1006/425/K dated 1-7-2008, which fixes only the procedure, the Rs. 3-00 court fee stamp on the application form, and the timelines. The land MEASUREMENT FEE is required as a challan by the Annexure-3 checklist but its amount is not stated. Both recorded as null.
Steps affected: 15. Non-agricultural permission.
Gap 8. Mutation (ferfar) and varsai fees: NOT PUBLISHED. Sections 135C and 135D of the Gujarat
Mutation (ferfar) and varsai fees: NOT PUBLISHED. Sections 135C and 135D of the Gujarat Land Revenue Code prescribe the procedure and the three-month / thirty-day periods but no fee; the Revenue Department IORA service table lists the services without amounts. Recorded as null.
Steps affected: 20. Mutation after the sale, 21. Varsai inheritance entry.
Gap 9. Property tax inside Dholera SIR: NO RATE, ASSESSMENT FORMULA, DUE DATE OR PAYMENT
Property tax inside Dholera SIR: NO RATE, ASSESSMENT FORMULA, DUE DATE OR PAYMENT PORTAL FOUND ON ANY GOVERNMENT SOURCE. Section 29 of the GSIR Act 2009 makes the SIR a deemed industrial township under article 243Q and lets DSIRDA act as the taxing authority with prior State Government permission, but publishes no rate. User charges are fixed by the Apex Authority under section 6(2)(vii) and were not found published. This is the single largest gap in the dataset and should be shown as 'not published' on any public page, never estimated.
Steps affected: 25. Property tax in Dholera SIR.
Gap 10. DSIRDA development permission (Form C) fee and BU scrutiny fee: NOT PUBLISHED. Form No
DSIRDA development permission (Form C) fee and BU scrutiny fee: NOT PUBLISHED. Form No. C carries no fee clause and the BU checklist has a blank line for the scrutiny fee amount. The DSIRDA General Development Control Regulations (DP Report 2 / GDCR) at https://dholera.gujarat.gov.in/dp-report-2/35 was not among the local artifacts and may carry a fee schedule; it was not retrieved. Recorded as null.
Steps affected: 33. DSIRDA development permission, 34. Building use permission.
Gap 11. Apex Authority (GIDB) single-window proposal fee under section 18(2) of the GSIR Act

Steps affected: 35. Single window for a new unit.
Gap 12. Current Jantri (Annual Statement of Rates) EFFECTIVE DATE deliberately omitted
Current Jantri (Annual Statement of Rates) EFFECTIVE DATE deliberately omitted. The local artifact jantri_gr.pdf embeds its Gujarati text, including its dates, in a legacy non-Unicode font that extracts as unusable characters, so no revision date could be read reliably. The Garvi Jantri and Market Value lookup pages are cited as the procedure; no revision year is asserted.
Steps affected: 10. Check the jantri rate.
Gap 13. Stamp duty rate composition: the official Garvi calculator help file states 4.9% for
Stamp duty rate composition: the official Garvi calculator help file states 4.9% for Article 20(a) conveyance but does NOT break it into basic duty plus surcharge, and states NO concession for women buyers. Neither the breakdown nor any women's concession is asserted here.
Steps affected: 17. Stamp duty on the sale deed.
Gap 14. Garvi stamp duty and registration fee help files carry NO publication or revision date
Garvi stamp duty and registration fee help files carry NO publication or revision date. Their date field is recorded as 'downloaded from garvi.gujarat.gov.in on 2026-08-04' rather than a claimed effective date.
Steps affected: 17. Stamp duty on the sale deed, 18. Registration fee on the sale deed.
Gap 15. manual13.pdf, one of the named local inputs, contains only the words 'Manual 13 -
manual13.pdf, one of the named local inputs, contains only the words 'Manual 13 - Particulars of Recipients of Concessions, Permits or Authorities Granted By It - NIL'. It yielded no procedural data.
This one is about the sources themselves rather than a single step.
Gap 16. tenancy1948.pdf, another named local input, is not a PDF at all: it is a saved HTML
tenancy1948.pdf, another named local input, is not a PDF at all: it is a saved HTML error page titled 'India Code: Invalid URL or Argument(s).' The Gujarat Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948 was instead read from gujact_19092023.pdf, which is the genuine Act.
This one is about the sources themselves rather than a single step.
Gap 17. gARVI_FAQ.pdf carries no date of issue and names no circular number, so its fee figures
gARVI_FAQ.pdf carries no date of issue and names no circular number, so its fee figures (search, copy, Index-2, EC, private-residence registration) are recorded with the honest date qualifier 'undated departmental citizen charter'. They should be re-verified at the sub-registrar office before being relied on for a transaction.
Steps affected: 05. Search the Sub-Registrar registers, 06. Encumbrance certificate at the office, 08. Certified copy of Index-2, 09. Certified copy of a registered deed, 19. Presenting the deed for registration.
Gap 18. Registration department SLA / turnaround times for issuing a certified copy, Index-2
Registration department SLA / turnaround times for issuing a certified copy, Index-2, EC or a completed registration are NOT PUBLISHED in any source examined.

Steps affected: 04. Get a digitally signed land record, 05. Search the Sub-Registrar registers, 06. Encumbrance certificate at the office, 07. Encumbrance certificate online, 08. Certified copy of Index-2, 09. Certified copy of a registered deed, 19. Presenting the deed for registration.
Gap 19. GujRERA complaint disposal timeline: section 29 of the RERA Act contemplates disposal
GujRERA complaint disposal timeline: section 29 of the RERA Act contemplates disposal within sixty days, but the GujRERA FAQ item on 'Time prescribed for disposal of Complaint for compensation' was not legible as a number in the extracted text, so no disposal timeline is asserted.
Steps affected: 26. Complain to GujRERA, 27. Claim compensation or interest.
How to close one
If a government page, circular or gazette publishes any figure recorded as unpublished above, send the link or the circular number to corrections@dholera.support. The gap will be replaced with the figure, its date and its citation, and the change will be dated on the sources page. Corrections go into the dataset first and the site is rebuilt from it, so a fix reaches every page at once.
