Amaravati, January 03, 2026: A recent Bank of Baroda analysis ranks Andhra Pradesh first among Indian states for attracting proposed investments in the first nine months of FY26.
The state secured 25.3% of the national total, equivalent to about ₹6.73 lakh crore out of ₹26.60 lakh crore announced across India. This positions Andhra Pradesh ahead of Odisha (13.1%) and Maharashtra (12.8%), highlighting a shift toward eastern and southern investment corridors.
Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu welcomed the findings on social media, describing them as positive momentum from reforms like Speed of Doing Business initiatives, transparent escrow mechanisms for incentives, and clear sector policies.
He thanked investors for their confidence and stressed this achievement builds a foundation for sustained growth and stronger partnerships.
