ECONOMIC STRUCTURE
The economic development and socio-demographic strategy for the Amaravati Capital city is formulated
keeping in perspective the current characteristics of the region viz. existing economic activity levels,
socio-demographic indicators, connectivity and linkages, natural resources, government thrust areas,
etc.
In view of this, a detailed review of the influence region (viz. Andhra Pradesh state) and the CRDA region
had been undertaken to understand the current economic and demographic scenario, key natural
resources and raw materials present, industrial and infrastructure initiatives proposed under the AP
Reorganization Act, etc. The earlier Capital Region Plan report presented findings of the on-ground
market assessment, critical analysis of statistical data and industry consultations.
This chapter primarily focuses on the economic development opportunities and broad socio-
demographic projections for the Amaravati Capital city. The chapter is divided into the following broad
sub sections:
