Village 14 of the register
Rahatalav
Rahatalav is one of the twenty two villages whose land was declared part of Dholera SIR in 2009. It holds 336 survey numbers across 63.4464 sq km, and it is named on the sheets for scheme 2/A.
A revenue village is the unit Gujarat keeps its land records in. Every plot in Rahatalav belongs to this village on paper, and the number that identifies it, its survey number, is issued within this village.
Being named on those sheets does not mean the whole of Rahatalav is inside them. The sheets say part villages, and no document we hold says which part or how much.
This page shows the government's own entry for the village, how it is spelled on each document, and what the records do not say about it.

How the village is spelled, and its census identity
The documents do not agree on how to spell this village. That matters, because a search of land records under one spelling can miss entries filed under another.
| Document | Spelling it uses |
|---|---|
| gazette 2009 | Rahatalav |
| dsirda dp villages map | Rahtalav |
| census 2011 | Rahtalav |
This site uses the 2009 gazette spelling, because the gazette is the document that declared the region. The other spellings are kept on the page so a search for either form still finds this record. All twenty two are compared on the spellings page.
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Census 2011 village code | 511935 |
| Census village name | Rahtalav |
| Sub district | Dhandhuka (03787) |
| District | Ahmadabad (474) |
| State | Gujarat (24) |
| Gujarati name | not in any source document |
These are Census of India 2011 codes. Village codes get reissued between censuses, so do not treat them as current Local Government Directory codes. We had no Local Government Directory code available, and no Gujarati spelling of any of the twenty two names, so neither has been transliterated or guessed at.
Which schemes name this village
| Scheme | Stage | Scheme area, sq km | Villages on that sheet | Government order |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Scheme 2/A | preliminary | no area published | 4 | none supplied |
This comes from the title block printed on each scheme drawing. What no document records is how much of Rahatalav actually falls inside each scheme. Every sheet says part villages, so some of the village is in and some is out, and nothing states the split in hectares or as a percentage. See the part villages page.
Rahatalav is one of the four villages the Activation Area touches. The Activation Area is the first phase being built out, about 22.54 sq km, and here too only part of the village is inside it.
How big it is next to the others
Everything in this section is arithmetic we did on the government's figures. None of it is quoted from a document, and the 2009 order does not rank anything. It prints the villages in serial order within each taluka, not by size.
| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Share of the notified area | 7.215per cent of the printed total 879.3377 sq km |
| Rank by area | 4of 22 |
| Rank by survey numbers | 17of 22 |
| Hectares per survey number | 18.88village area divided by its survey number count |
| Share of survey numbers | 2.305per cent of 14,574 |
It sits between Hebatpur at 72.6594 sq km and Gogla at 55.4426 sq km.
What this page cannot tell you
Anyone selling land here will fill these gaps for you. These are the things our documents genuinely do not say about Rahatalav.
- How much of the village is inside any scheme. Every sheet says part villages and not one of them puts a figure on the part.
- What class any particular piece of land in it is. Neither dataset records a land class against a village or a plot, which is set out in full on the land classes page.
- The Gujarati spelling. No source document carries one, so the field is empty rather than transliterated by us.
- Anything about people. Population, schools, water and other census details were not extracted. This record carries names, codes and the 2009 figures only.
