Investment proposals for another 13000 Crore are pending permissions from the state government. Chittoor district from Rayalaseema tops in these investments taking away 8689.81 Crore. Sri City is the major investment destination and is situated in Chittoor which comes as an advantage to the district.
There are three Rayalaseema districts in the list of districts with maximum number of investments. While some are accusing the state government putting all of its concentration on Krishna and Guntur districts. Both the districts together barely managed about 750 Crore. Guntur district is at the bottom tenth position in the list while Krishna district is ranked eighth.
