The youngest state of the Indian Union, Telangana (pop.40 million) was carved out of Andhra Pradesh in 2014 with Hyderabad as its capital. This bustling city of nawabs and pearls (pop.10.9 million) rivals Bangalore as a nucleus of the information technology (IT), biotech and pharma industries and companies. With IT majors Facebook, Google, IBM and Microsoft having established large operations in Hyderabad, the state’s IT and ITES companies earned a revenue of US$ 14.50 billion (Rs.93,422 crore) in 2017-18. Hyderabad also accounts for approximately 20 percent of India’s exports of pharmaceutical drugs and formulations and is a major producer of rice, maize and cotton.
