Limbdi State was a princely state and was entitled to a 9-gun salute during the British Raj period. It was ruled at that time by members of the Jhala dynasty.[1] It belonged to Kathiawar Agency.

After India's independence from British colonial rule in 1947, Limbdi was integrated into the Indian Union with other princely states. It has a current population of about 70,000 people who are employed in diverse professions from agriculture to small businesses.[citation needed]
