Telangana Rising 2047: A $3 Trillion Vision Reshaping India’s Growth Map
Dec 11, 2025
Telangana has launched one of the most ambitious state-level economic visions ever attempted in India. Under the Telangana Rising 2047 roadmap, the government aims to transform the state from its current $200 billion economy into a $1 trillion economy by 2034 and further accelerate to $3 trillion by 2047, aligning with India’s centennial year of independence.
With only 2.5% of India’s population, Telangana already contributes nearly 5% of national GDP. The vision is to double that share to 10% by 2047, positioning Telangana as one of the country’s most powerful economic engines.
Growth Acceleration – Fast-Tracking Economic Scale
Historically, Telangana’s economy has doubled roughly every decade since liberalisation. However, the current vision compresses what would have taken 25 years into just 10 years, powered by:
Capital inflows (domestic and global)
Clear long-term sector policies
Infrastructure at unprecedented scale
Manufacturing expansion alongside advanced services and technology
The government expects to reach:
$1 trillion state GDP by 2034
$3 trillion GDP by 2047
10% contribution to India's total GDP
This aggressive growth is backed by coordinated investment in:
IT & GCC (Global Capability Centres)
Life sciences & pharma
Aerospace & defence manufacturing
Data centres
Clean energy production
Tourism & urban development
Hyderabad is already emerging as a global hub for GCCs, pharmaceutical R&D, and deep-tech research, supporting this economic blueprint.
The Game-Changing CURE–PURE–RARE Model
Telangana is the first Indian state to restructure its entire geography into three specialised economic zones, each playing a focused role in the trillion-dollar roadmap:
