Apparently (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmedabad) the city's local
name in Gujarati is Amdavad, located within Ahmedabad district. This
is reflected in the geocoder response, where SubAdministrativeAreaName
is Ahmedabad.

Geocoder data errors should be reported as an issue:
http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/list but the output
does appear to be following a standard. You could always code for
Amdavad as a special case.
