Dhala crater (N25°17'59.7" and E78°8'3.1") is situated in Shivpuri district, Madhya Pradesh State, India. Currently, the diameter of the structure is estimated at 11 km based on field observations. The basement rocks are predominantly composed of granitoids, and in the centralmost part of the structure voluminous melt breccia containing target rock clasts with shock metamorphic features are directly overlain by a post-impact siltstone- shale-sandstone sequence of the Vindhyan Supergroup.
