TELANGANA'S DOLLAR DREAM: POWERING INDIA’S ECONOMIC RISE

$3 Trillion Goal

Shaping a future-ready economy

A new era of ambition is unfolding in Telangana. Guided by the bold and forward-looking leadership of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, the youngest State in India is charting a historic rise and preparing for an economic transformation of unprecedented scale.

With a current State GDP (S-GDP) of $200 billion and a clear, strategic pathway to a $3-trillion economy, Telangana is positioning itself as one of the world’s most dynamic growth engines. The State gears up to achieve a five-fold leap to reach a $3 trillion economy with a clear roadmap.

  • $1 trillion in nominal and real terms by 2034
  • $3 trillion in nominal and real terms by 2047

Vision for Telangana

Telangana’s vision is to become a $1 trillion economy by 2034 and a $3 trillion economy by 2047, when India celebrates 100 years of Independence.

  • CURE (Core Urban Region Economy)

    The hub for high-value services, technology, innovation, and urban economic engines.

  • PURE (Peri-Urban Region Economy)

    The zone that will drive large-scale manufacturing, industrial growth, and production infrastructure.

  • RARE (Rural and Agri Region Economy)

    The foundation for agriculture, food systems, and rural production-led prosperity.

A judicious & shrewd 3-pronged approach

Focus on C-GDP

It’s a well-known fact that highest growth rises and best growth rates and accelerators can be achieved through super-growth in city areas. With strategic planning and meticulous implementation of major development and investment schemes, Hyderabad’s City GDP (C-GDP) can be transformed from the current $90-odd billion to over $600 billion.

Net Zero Future City

A focused approach is needed to develop Hyderabad as a world-class city and the aim is to surpass problems such as traffic, water shortage, urban flooding, climate change challenges, zoning, and quality of life balance faced by Indian cities. Future City is a way to create such an annexure to the historic Hyderabad by making the area within the 160-km-long ORR region as a ‘Services Only City’.

Telangana explores China +1 opportunities

Telangana aims to capture a major share in the global trade across the sectors - especially in electronics, pharma and biotech - by exploring China +1 opportunities and by dividing the State’s zoning cluster into three circles. This creates not only a huge space between the urban ORR and semi-urban RRR, connected by radial roads, for manufacturing clusters, but also massive job opportunities.

Transformation of rural region

To succeed in the vision for TelanganaRising 2047 in its truest sense, the quality of life and livelihoods of people in rural Telangana would be improved alongside the growth of Hyderabad’s economy. A plethora of schemes are being put in place to promote agro-based and organic farming methods, building vegetable and cereal producing zones, and increasing welfare and incomes of Telangana people.

Not just an aspiration; it is a mission

As India sets its sights on becoming a $30 trillion economy, Telangana is preparing to contribute 10% to the nation’s GDP, up from the current 5%, cementing its position as “a pivotal force that propels India’s economic growth”.

How Telangana will get there: A 3-zone strategy for inclusive growth

Urban engine – Hyderabad (C-GDP target: $600 billion)
  • Transform Hyderabad into a global services capital
  • Develop it as the Future City — a benchmark for innovation, liveability, and sustainability
  • Create a services-driven economy to position Hyderabad as a magnet for talent and investment

Industrial heartland – Between ORR & RRR
  • Establish a massive industrial growth corridor
  • Develop robust infrastructure connected by radial roads
  • Focus on and scale up manufacturing-driven job creation

Rural transformation – Beyond the RRR to State borders
  • Promote agri processing, organic farming, and greenhouse agriculture
  • Empower rural communities through modern agri-tech and value-added agriculture
  • Drive inclusive development by ensuring that every corner of Telangana thrives

Telangana’s $3 trillion-dollar vision is set to redefine India’s economic landscape, transform millions of lives, and position the State as a trailblazer in the global growth story. With a powerful combination of visionary leadership, strategic planning, and relentless execution, Telangana is aiming high to build the future.
