With the blessings of Gachchhadhipati Acharyadev Shri Kailasasagarsurishwarji Maharaj Saheb, Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra was established on the 5th day of the dark half of the month of Paush in the year v.s. 2037 (26th Dec 1980) by the inspirations of most revered Acharyadev Shri Padmasagarsurishwarji Maharaj Saheb. Acharya Shri Kailasasagarsurishwarji harboured a divine ambition of founding a Jain temple, an Upashraya (monastery) and a study center at Koba. In fulfillment of the wishes of his Dadaguru (grand-guru), Acharyadev Shri Padmasagarsurishwarji inspired the establishment of Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra at Koba. Being inspired by the Gachchhadhipati, Shri Rasikbhai Acharatlal Shah donated a prominent piece of land at a short distance from Koba, which falls on the highway between Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.
