Telangana has cemented its position as India’s fastest-rising investment destination, attracting a staggering ₹12,864 crore in foreign direct investment (FDI) between April and September 2024 — a 33% jump year-on-year — and securing a top-tier ranking among Indian states for FDI inflows in FY 2024-25. “Telangana is not just open for business — we are building the most trusted, high-velocity investment ecosystem in Asia,” Chief Minister Revanth Reddy declared promising predictable governance, seamless clearances and a skilled, happy workforce.
The state’s core strengths — consistently ranked among India’s top three for business reforms, a thriving innovation corridor from Genome Valley to T-Hub, WE Hub, and the upcoming TGIC, uninterrupted 24×7 power supply, and rapidly improving livability in Hyderabad and emerging tier-2 cities like Warangal, Karimnagar, and Nizamabad — have already made it the preferred home for over 250 Fortune 500 Global Capability Centres and deep-tech startups.
By 2047, Telangana aims to become India’s most business-friendly state with groundbreaking initiatives such as an international Arbitration and Mediation Centre in partnership with Singapore (SIAC), ICC and LCIA for swift, neutral dispute resolution, TG-iPASS 2.0: A blockchain-powered, zero-touch single-window clearance system achieving 100% self-certification for MSMEs by 2039, GIS-mapped land banks and cluster development in tier-2 cities for instant industrial land allotment and a dry port in Nalgonda along with its seamless integration with national industrial corridors to slash logistics costs.
A massive talent attraction push includes the ambitious EduCity project — a cluster of global universities and research hubs — alongside relocation grants, spousal employment support, and competitive tax incentives. On the finance front, Telangana has set aggressive targets to bridge the “missing middle” by transforming micro units into medium enterprises: MSME credit outstanding is targeted to rise from Rs 1.4 lakh crore today to Rs 5 lakh crore by 2047, while the weighted average cost of capital is slated to drop below 7%.
