Before the formation of the Republic of India, the territory of present-day Sarada tehsil was part of the former Udaipur State.[4] With the formation of the United State of Rajasthan (precursor to the state of Rajasthan) in 1948, the new district of Udaipur was constituted which included the area of present-day Sarada tehsil.[4] In 2013, Sarada tehsil was sub-divided into two parts, with Semari tehsil being established as an independent tehsil, containing areas formerly under Sarada.[5][6]
The area of the tehsil is 776 square kilometres.[2] The annual average rainfall in Sarada tehsil is 537 mm, with an average of 27 rainy days per year.[1]
