Madhapar is a village located in Kachchh district in the state of Gujarat, India. It is the richest village in India in terms of bank deposits. The village has around 20,000 households and Indian rupee of bank deposits.

==Madhapar== Madhapar is named after Madha Kanji Solanki of KGK Community, who moved from Dhaneti village and laid foundation of Madhapar in 1473–1474 (VS 1529). This early Madhapar today is known as Junavaas (Old Residence). The Patel Kanbi community moved into the village around 1576 AD (V.S. 1633). Navovaas (New Residence) was started in around 1857, by which time Madhapar had become congested and other communities like the Kanbis had also increased and prospered.
