Introduction
After a 6-decade long relentless struggle, Telangana was constituted as a separate state on the 2nd
of June, 2014. Despite being the youngest state in the country, what it has managed to achieve in the
brief period, since its formation is nothing short of extraordinary. This was made possible through
the incisive and decisive leadership of the Hon’ble CM Sri K. Chandrasekhar Rao, who vowed to turn
the ailing region into a glorious story of success.

Situation at the Formation of the State :

At the time of formation, what the state received as legacy was a host of challenges cutting across
different sectors:

1. 9 out of the 10 districts in the state were then covered under the Backward Regions Grant
Fund (BRGF).

2. The twelfth Five-Year Plan document by the Planning Commission categorised two districts in
the state -- Khammam and Mahbubnagar --as ‘Most Hungry’.

3. The agriculture and allied sectors which support nearly 46% of the state’s population were
mired in distress driving farmers to suicides.  The number of farmers committing suicide was
the second highest among all the states as per the data published by the National Crime
Records Bureau, Union Ministry of Home Affairs.

4. Prior to formation of Telangana State, there was a severe Power crisis. The Peak Demand was
short by 2,700 MW, resulting in Power cuts of 4 to 8 hours daily. Due to the Power shortage
a Two day Power holiday to industries was being implemented forcing the industrial units to
operate only for a few days in a week and that too in shifts. 

5. The revenue growth potential of the state was very limited since a majority of the districts
were economically backward.

6. Telangana’s performance in terms of the Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP), In the two
years preceding state formation, Telangana region’s average rate of growth of GSDP, at 12.1%,
was 1.3 percentage points less than India’s average rate of growth of GDP.

Growth after formation of the State

As the new Government took charge, it focussed all its energy on remedying the situation by
reinventing and reorienting Telangana instead of dwelling on the challenges it had inherited.
Sri K. Chandrasekhar Rao, the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Telangana, weaved an inspirational story
of triumph by transforming the state through optimal utilization of all the available resources. His
goal-oriented vision, unrelenting efforts, and constant persistence have translated into success, as
is evident from data released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI).
The details of achievements are as follows:

Economic Development of Telangana @Ten 1


Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP)
The State Domestic Product (SDP) is the most important economic indicator which measures
the value of all final goods and services produced within state boundaries in a year, reflects the
remarkable progress. The SDP and other related macroeconomic aggregates are useful to meet the
financial requirement of the Government, apart from Planning and policy formulations.

The Finance department prepares a Macro Economic Framework Statement and Fiscal Policy Strategy
Statement, every year, based on the SDP estimates for placing before the Legislatures at the time
of Budget Sessions as part of Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management (FRBM) Act, 2005. This
Act stipulates the responsibility of the State Government to ensure prudence in Fiscal Management
and Fiscal Stability by progressive elimination of revenue deficit, reduction in Fiscal deficit, prudent
debt management consistent with Fiscal sustainability, greater transparency in Fiscal operations of
the Government. The Ministry of Finance, GOI will communicate the annual borrowing ceilings to
the States based on their GSDP estimates.

After the state’s formation, however, growth in Telangana has consistently outpaced growth in the
country, and the gap has widened with each successive year. In the year of state formation itself,
Telangana achieved a 1 percentage point higher growth rate of GSDP than India’s GDP. On an average,
in the period post 2014-15, Telangana has grown at 12.5% -- 2 percentage points higher than India’s
average growth rate of 10.5%.

While India’s GDP increased by only 118.2% from 2014-15 to 2022-23, Telangana achieved a 155.7%
increase in the GSDP value during the same period, making it the 2nd ranking state in terms of the
overall GSDP increase during this period. What is noteworthy is that Telangana’s average growth in
this period was amongst the best in the country.

In achieving this, the state surpassed all its neighbouring states -- Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka,
Kerala, and Tamil Nadu – with which it shares similarity in socio-economic circumstances along with
geographical proximity.

By consistently outperforming the country, the state’s share in national GDP increased from 4.1% in
2014-15 to 4.8% in 2022-23, despite its share in the national population remaining constant at 2.9%
throughout this period.

Not only have the Government’s measures transformed the state from being economically deprived
to becoming financial abundant, but also, it has ensured that the benefits of this stupendous growth
reach every household in the state.

Per Capita Income (PCI)


In terms of the Per Capita Income (PCI), which is a broad measure of the standard of living of the
population, Telangana’s performance has been exceptional. In the year prior to state formation, the
average citizen of the state earned an income of Rs. 1,12,162, while the average Indian citizen earned

2 Economic Development of Telangana @Ten


an income of Rs. 79,118, thus implying that an average Telangana citizen was earning Rs. 33,044
more than an average Indian citizen. In 2022-23, the average Telangana citizen earned an income of
Rs. 3,08,732 -- Rs. 1,36,732 more than the income of an average Indian citizen (Rs. 1,72,000).

Importantly however, not only is the state’s Per Capita Income higher than the national average,
but also, it has been growing at a higher rate than the national average. In the 2 years prior to state
formation, Telangana region had an average growth rate of PCI of 10.9%, which was 0.8% lower than
the national PCI growth rate (11.7%). Since state formation, however, Telangana’s PCI has grown at
an average rate of 12.1% in comparison to India’s average PCI growth rate of 9.2%.

In the period 2014-15 to 2022-23, the average incomes of the citizens of Telangana grew at a
significantly higher average rate than that of citizens in other states. Telangana was the top-ranking
state in terms of the average growth rate of PCI in this period. The exceptional growth of Per Capita
Income achieved by the state has translated into a high absolute value of the PCI in Telangana. The
state ranked 1st among the 16 states with data availability in terms of the Per Capita Income in
2022-23 (AE), implying that the state’s citizens earned the highest income amongst citizens from
other 16 states.

Telangana surpassed 8 states in a span of 9 years, moving from 10th position in the year of state
formation to become the top ranking Non-Special Catagory (NSC) state in terms of Per Capita Income
in 2022-23.

What’s truly remarkable is that wealth is not concentrated in the hands of a few in Telangana state.
As per the NFHS 2019-21 report, the state ranks 1st among all sates (along with Tamil Nadu and
Kerala) in terms of equitable income distribution, with a Gini coefficient of 0.10.

Sectoral highlights
The extraordinary overall growth achieved by Telangana has been attained on account of its
remarkable performance in the 3 key sectors that contribute to any economy – Agriculture & Allied
Sectors, Industries (including mining and quarrying) and Services sector.

1. Agriculture & Allied Sectors


The ‘Agriculture & Allied Sectors’, which are the backbone of rural Telangana, and employ more
than 46% of the population of the state, achieved a notable improvement in their growth rate since
state formation. While Telangana started out with a negative 0.7% growth rate in the ‘Agriculture
& Allied Sectors’ in 2014-15, it managed to revolutionize these sectors, attaining exemplary growth
rates of 37.0% and 13.3% even during the pandemic years of 2019-20 and 2020-21. The robust
growth achieved by the Agriculture and Allied sectors during the pandemic and after continued in
2022-23 as well. The sector grew by 15.7% in 2022-23. Telangana’s Agriculture and Allied sector has,
in fact, been on an upward growth path for the past nine years, with its growth rate increasing by
16.4 percentage points from 2014-15 to 2022-23. During the period 2014-15 to 2022-23, the sector
grew at an average rate of 12.8% in Telangana, whereas the average growth rate of the sector in the
country as a whole during this period was only 10.0%.

Economic Development of Telangana @Ten 3


Since the formation of the State, the Government has prioritised the growth of the Agriculture sector
through various initiatives such as the Rythu Bandhu scheme (investment support), the construction
of new major and medium irrigation projects, 24x7 free power to Agriculture, Mission Kakatiya,
promotion of livestock and fisheries, sheep distribution scheme, etc., These initiatives have led to an
increase in the share of Agriculture and Allied sectors in the total current-price GSVA of the state—
from 16.3% in 2014-15 to 18.8% in 2022-23.

Assured irrigation is the main input for the crops as it protects the farmers in poor monsoons and
leads to an increase in the production and productivity of the crops. During the period 2014-15 to
2022-23, the Government has incurred an amount of Rs 1.61 lakh crore on irrigation projects in the
State. Due to this considerable investment by the Government, the Gross Irrigated Area (GIA) has
significantly increased by 117% (from 62.48 lakh acres in 2014-15 to 135 lakh acres in 2021-22).
This impressive growth in irrigated area has resulted in an increase in paddy production by 342%
between 2015-16 and 2021-22 (from 45.71 lakh MTs to 202 lakh MTs) and the State has emerged
as the second largest supplier of Paddy to the Food Corporation of India (FCI). The Telangana Civil
Supplies Corporation Limited has purchased huge quantities of paddy in the last 7 years ensuring
the Minimum Support Price, benefitting lakhs of farmers. Similarly, Cotton production has been
increased by 33% from 18.85 lakh MTs in 2015-16 to 25.08 lakh MTs in 2021-22.

The Government is also actively supporting a transition to demand-driven and commercial agriculture
which will provide a sustainable increase in incomes to farmers In this regard, the State has emerged
as one of the high-potential states for Oil Palm cultivation and stands sixth in the country in terms
of the area under oil-palm cultivation (68,440 acres), second in the production of Fresh fruit Bunch,
and 1st in the Oil Extraction Rate (OER) in India (19.32% share).

To support Oil Palm cultivation in the State, the Government is providing assistance for taking up oil
palm cultivation with 50% assistance on mechanisation tools. It is also planning to take up 20 lakh
acres under Oil Palm in a mission mode as part of crop diversification. A total of 11 companies are
now operating in the state and they have established 30 nurseries with a capacity to raise 2.67 crore
Oil Palm seedlings.

Another notable outcome which would help farmers boost their incomes is the famous Tandur red
gram bagging a Geographical Indication (GI) tag. It is the 16th product from Telangana to get a GI tag
and this process was facilitated by Prof. Jayashankar Telangana State Agriculture University (PJTSAU).

Highlights
• The farm sector plays a key role in strengthening the national economy, improving inclusive
growth, ensuring sustainable development, and dealing with climate change. Poverty reduction
can take place with investment in agriculture, with a focus on improved agricultural
practice. These practices include improving the efficacy of farmland by halting and reversing
deteriorating soil health; encouraging crop diversification; promoting the usage of certified
seeds; practicing sustainable water management with rainwater harvesting and preservation
of rainwater; developing local agricultural marketing and using technology.

4 Economic Development of Telangana @Ten


• Agriculture, Forestry, Livestock and Fisheries sectors’ Gross Value Added (Current Prices)
to the state economy has seen a CAGR of 14.1% from Rs. 76,123 crores in 2014-15 to
Rs. 2,17,983 crores in 2022-23 (AE) and during the same period the sector CAGR at all India level
is 10.1%.

• A significant portion of this growth was driven by the crops sub-sector, currently crops accounts
for 49.7% of the overall sector GSVA at Current Prices, followed by livestock at 43.6%, fishing and
aquaculture at 3.4%, forestry and logging sector stood at 3.3% in 2022-23 (AE).

• As per 20th livestock census-2019, Telangana ranks first place in the sheep population. The sheep
population has seen an increase of 48.51% between 2012 to 2019 (12.8 million in 2012 to 19.1
million in 2019). Telangana stands at 3rd in egg production, 5th in meat production and 13th posi-
tion in milk production during 2021-22.

Under the Rythu Bandhu Scheme:


As part of agriculture investment support, cumulatively, the Government disbursed Rs. 65,192 crores
(from Vanakalam 2018-Vanakalam 2022) to 65 lakh beneficiaries (in Vanakalam 2022). Of these, 53%
belong to the BC category, around 13% each belong to SC and ST categories, and ‘Others’ constitute
around 21% of the beneficiaries.

Under the Rythu Bima Scheme:


From 2018-19 onwards, the Government has settled claims to an extent of Rs. 4,771 Crores and
transferred the amount to the 95,416 bereaved families.

Irrigation Area:
The efforts of the Government to improve irrigation facilities by commissioning new projects and
improving old irrigation infrastructure have been successful and begun to pay off. The gross irrigated
area of all crops increased by 117% between 2014-15 (from 62.48 lakh acres) and 2021-22 (to 135
lakh acres).

2. Industrial Sector
Industrialization has played a crucial role in bringing about economic development and in raising
the productivity of the economy across nations worldwide. Industrialization opens numerous ave-
nues for employing surplus labour, thereby lifting economic stagnation. Industrialization also leads
to technological advancement and results in the overall progress of society and therefore it must be
focused upon to achieve developmental goals.

Business-friendly policies and the proactive measures taken by the government to facilitate business
have created a conducive environment that has spurred industrial growth in the state. In the year
2022-23, the industrial sector’s contribution to the Gross State Value Added (GSVA) at current prices
is estimated at 19.0%.

Economic Development of Telangana @Ten 5


The Industrial sector in Telangana, after experiencing a robust recovery from the pandemic in 2021-
22, grew at 9.5% in 2022-23. The growth rate of the Industrial sector in Telangana, as in the case of
India, was lower in 2022-23 than in 2021-22. This decrease can be attributed to a host of factors such
as the unstable world economic scenario and disturbance in global supply chains due to the Russia-
Ukraine war, China’s zero COVID policy, & high inflation and interest rates. However, Telangana
experienced a much smaller decline in the growth rate of the sector in 2022-23 (6.7 percentage
points) as compared to the decline experienced at the national level (9.4 percentage points).

Highlights
• According to the Periodic Labour Force Survey 2020-21, ‘Manufacturing’ sub- sector employing
10.95% and ‘Construction’ sub-sector employing 8.82% of the total working population are the
two major sub-sectors that have led to maximum employment creation in the state.

• In 2022-23 (upto January 2023), TS-iPASS has approved 2518 units bringing in new investments
worth Rs. 20,237 crore.

• During 2021-22, merchandise goods worth Rs. 81,971 crore were exported by the state.
Pharmaceutical goods and Organic Chemicals constituted 57.31% of the total goods exported.
The USA was the largest importer of goods from Telangana, importing over 28.13% of all exports
by value.

• Telangana was included in the Top Achievers category in the latest edition (2020) of Ease of
Doing Business rankings which were recently announced in 2022 and since 2016 it has been
consistently ranked among the top 3 states in India.

• In the Export Preparedness Index 2021, Telangana has scored 100 in the Business environment
indicator.

• T-Hub has competed against 55 incubators at the national level and has bagged the “Best Incubator
in India ‘’ award at the National Startup Awards 2022 of the DPIIT, Ministry of Commerce and
Industry, for its efforts to support the growth of the startup ecosystem in Telangana.

• The state has made continuous efforts for the growth of the industrial sector through its innovative
policies, which have resulted in increased investments and employment opportunities. TS-iPASS,
the government’s flagship initiative, attracted Rs 20,237 crore of investment in 2022-23 (up to
Jan 2023) through 2,518 new industries and created employment for 72,908 people.

• Innovation and technology are the prime drivers of industrial growth in Telangana. Currently, the
state has 78 incubators, accelerators and co-working spaces with a specific focus on Lifesciences,
FinTech, Agri Tech, Digital, etc. The innovation policy of the state and the incentives provided to
the start­ups has made the state a fertile ground for many emerging startups and some of them
have gone on to gain national prominence.

6 Economic Development of Telangana @Ten


• A startup named “Darwin Box” is the first startup from Telangana that joined the unicorn club and
another startup, “Skyroot Aerospace’’, incubated at T-Hub has gained the distinguished status of
developing India’s first private rocket called “Prarambh”. T-Hub has bagged the “Best Incubator
in India’’ award at the National Startup Awards 2022 of the DPIIT, Ministry of Commerce and
Industry, for its efforts to support the growth of the startup ecosystem in Telangana.

• The second phase of T-Hub (T-Hub 2.0) was started on 28th June, 2022. It is one of the world’s
largest innovation campuses with a capacity to house 4,000 start-ups and other key elements
of the innovation ecosystem. T-Hub Phase 2 has further improved the startup ecosystem of the
state.

• The Government of Telangana through its Industrial Policy Framework has envisaged achieving
inclusive growth whereby all the sections of the state are equally benefited. Since its formation
in the year 2014, the state has made continuous efforts for the growth of the industrial sector,
which has resulted in increased investments and employment opportunities.

3. Services Sector
The growth of the Services Sector in India is a unique example of leap-frogging traditional models of
economic growth. It is the largest sector of the global economy in terms of value-added, accounting
for 53.40% of the global GDP in 2021-22.

The Services sector accounts for 62.2% of the state’s value added, and is therefore, one of the most
important sectors in Telangana’s economy. The Services sector in Telangana experienced a 17.8%
growth in GVA in 2022-23. While the Services sector was the worst hit during the pandemic in 2020-
21, the nominal GSVA of the sector in 2022-23 was 35.8% higher than its pre-pandemic GVA (2019-
20). This reflects a strong resurgence in the demand for services produced in Telangana. Additionally,
while in India the sector grew at an average rate of 11.0% in the period 2014-15 to 2022-23, in
Telangana, it grew at an impressive average rate of 13.1% during this period.

The ‘Real Estate, Ownership of Dwelling and Professional Services’ is the most dominant sub-sector
of the services sector in the state, which contributed to more than one-third of the GSVA at current
prices. According to JLL-City-Momentum Index-2020, which identifies the world’s most dynamic
cities from a real estate perspective, Hyderabad is the world’s most dynamic city by occupying the
first position in the city momentum index. As per the report, the city is one of the world’s best-
performing cities for prime offices and its rental growth is phenomenal.

Telangana ranked 2nd in the overall ranking category of the NITI Aayog India Innovation Index 2022
which was measured on key parameters like Human capital, Investment, knowledge workers,
Business environment, Safety, Legal environment, Knowledge output, and Knowledge diffusion in
the state. In addition, as per the PLFS 2020-21 report the sector provided employment to more than
one-third of the total workforce. The services sector has been a vital source of output, growth, and
jobs in the state.

Economic Development of Telangana @Ten 7


Highlights
• The services sector’s contribution to employment is higher in Telangana’s urban areas than in
rural areas. According to the Periodic Labour Force Survey 2020-21, 63.22% of the urban
workers in the state were working in the service sector, whereas it was 18.28% in the rural areas.

• A thriving technology sector is driving this momentum, with the city’s reputation receiving a
further boost with the opening of a large campus by Amazon, in addition to the presence of
tech giants such as Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Facebook. This enabling environment has
led to a remarkable growth in IT exports from the state. Between 2014-15 and 2021-22, IT
exports from Telangana experienced a Compounded Annual Growth Rate of 15.67%. The total
employment in the IT sector increased from nearly 3.7 lakhs to 7.7 lakhs during this period. To
further accelerate such growth, the Government has introduced its second ICT Policy (2021-
26). According to PLFS 2020-21, more than one-third (33.21%) of total workers in Telangana are
employed in the services sector. At the all- India level, this is 29.64%. Within the services sector
in the state, more than one-third of total workers (39.75%) are employed in the ‘Trade, Hotels
and Restaurants’ sub-sector, whereas 21.04% of the workers are employed in the ‘Transport,
Storage and Communication’ sub-sector, together accounting for 60.79% of the employment
in the services sector.

• Tourism Department, Government of Telangana won National Tourism Awards in four


categories. The categories are Best State (Telangana State Tourism Development Corporation),
Best Tourism Friendly Golf Course (Hyderabad Golf Association), Best Tourist Friendly Railway
Station (Secunderabad Railway Station), and Best Medical Tourism Facility (Apollo Hospitals).
The awards were presented by the Government of India at World Tourism Day celebrations
held in New Delhi in September 2022.

• In January 2023, the National startup awards 2022 was announced by Startup India & DPIIT,
Government of India in which the Government of Telangana Startup incubator - T-Hub, won the
Best Incubator in India prize in the incubator space where incubators across 17 sectors have
participated.

State Own Tax Revenue (SOTR)


The notable growth of the economy resulted in a tremendous increase in the resource pool of the
state (State Own Tax Revenue). The revenue of the state expanded from Rs.29,288 crore in 2014-15
to Rs.1,06,949 crore in 2022-23 -- an increase of more than 265%. On average, the SOTR in the state
grew at 18.3% in the period 2014-15 to 2022-23 -- significantly higher than the NSC state average of
10.9%. What is truly remarkable is that this revenue growth was achieved without levying any addi-
tional financial burden on the population. Through astute governance and strategic measures, the
Government substantially improved tax compliance and tax efficiency resulting in a surge in revenue
collection.

8 Economic Development of Telangana @Ten


Financial Management
The increased revenue pool was utilized by the Government to expand its spending on productivity-
enhancing and welfare-augmenting programmes, in order to further increase the growth rate of
the economy, thus setting in motion a cycle of prosperity. While the budget expenditure of the
Government in the year of state formation was Rs.62,306 crore, it had increased to Rs.2,04,085
crore in 2022-23.

The allocation of this expenditure has been done in a manner that has led to the maximum multiplier
effect, while reaching every last citizen. The Government has maintained a balanced approach to
development by adopting a two-pronged approach:

• Investing heavily in infrastructure development, which was earlier badly neglected, in order to
improve the productivity and output, thereby acting as a growth multiplier. The most notable
amongst these investments include the Kaleshwaram lift irrigation project, Mission Kakatiya,
Mission Bhagirath, investments to improve the installed capacity of power, and expenditure on
improving transport facilities, Health Infrastructure.

• Introducing a wide range of welfare schemes such as Rythu Bandhu, Rythu Bima, Dalit Bandhu,
Kalyana Laxmi, Shadi Mubarak, Asara Pensions, Mana Ooru - Mana Badi, etc., that have increased
the purchasing power of the households, thereby improving the living standards of all the
sections of the society.

While the state’s spending has increased tremendously, it has never been achieved at the expense
of fiscal discipline. The state has always practised strict financial prudence, which is reflected in its
remarkably low debt-to-GSDP ratio of 28.2% -- one of the lowest in the country. This is perhaps one
of the most resounding triumphs of the Government, that despite the indifferent attitude of the
Union Government, Telangana has been able to sustain its finances by prudently investing in sectors
which have fuelled further growth.

To sustain the extraordinary momentum of economic growth, the Telangana Government introduced
a series of structural reforms for accelerating industry and services sector led growth. These include
revolutionary initiatives such as the introduction of TS-iPASS and TS-bPASS, the strengthening of
policing infrastructure, and decentralisation for good governance. The reform initiatives taken by
the state have emerged as best practices for the country, and have taken the state to the top in the
national rankings. It has ranked amongst the top 3 states on the Ease of Doing Business rankings
since 2016, achieved the maximum possible score on the ‘Business Environment’ indicator under
the Export Preparedness Index 2021, ranked 2nd on the India Innovation Index 2021 among the
major states, and was adjudged the top performer in developing a strong start up ecosystem by GoI.

The balanced approach to development adopted by the visionary CM–targeting the demand side
as well as the supply side – led to a virtuous cycle of growth, the results of which are evident for
everyone to see. By any standards -- national or global -- Telangana is a ground-breaking success.

Economic Development of Telangana @Ten 9


The way forward
The youngest state in the country has achieved major milestones in development within no time,
by following its own kind – “The Telangana Model”. The seeds of the Government’s social overhead
capital investment in power and irrigation projects during the initial years of state formation now
bear fruits in terms of high agricultural productivity and vibrant economic activity. Economic vibrancy
is further augmented through the implementation of industry-friendly policies. By adopting an
integrated development approach rather than banking on piecemeal reforms, the state has been
able to achieve growth that is distributed equitably, and has helped improve the standard of living
of the citizens.

The state has now set its sights on tripling the size of the economy over the coming 9 years -- a
mammoth goal, but one that it is well-positioned to achieve.
