Amaravati development progress: the latest verified milestones
A dated summary of what is happening in the capital. Each topic links to its evidence and its own page. We label each one as working, under construction or out to tender, so you can tell them apart.

The overall numbers
A review reported on 13 September 2026 listed 119 major capital projects worth ₹66,802 crore. Of these, 113 were approved, 97 had started and 4 were complete. ₹58,093 crore of work was under way, ₹12,731 crore had been spent since 2024, and ₹41,188 crore of loans had been arranged from the World Bank, HUDCO, NABARD, NABFID and the state power finance corporation.
In April 2026 the figure under review was ₹57,821 crore, so the two numbers are close. The Chief Minister used a rounder figure of about ₹50,000 crore in a speech on 23 September. Different counts include different projects, so go by the dated, itemised figure.

Tenders for the government complex
APCRDA's notices include a district cooling tender started on 28 August 2026 and a call for third-party construction quality checks started on 24 September 2026. When we checked on 2 October, the listing gave 3 October as the closing date for both. These are tenders, not certificates that the buildings are finished.
How to read a project update
Every milestone covers a set scope. A tender is about the package named in the notice. A foundation ceremony marks a start. A working service shows the thing is in use. A completion date stays a target until the responsible authority reports that the work is done. Follow the news log for dated entries and the infrastructure board for each project.
