Hyderabad: Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka said AI revenue growth and stricter tax monitoring improved collections across departments, citing gains in mining, transport, and commercial taxes.
He chaired a Cabinet Sub-Committee meeting on revenue generation and resource mobilisation at the Secretariat on Friday. Ministers Uttam Kumar Reddy and Jupally Krishna Rao attended the review along with other members.
Bhatti Vikramarka said the government used artificial intelligence tools to track revenue leakages and improve compliance. As a result, departments such as mining and transport recorded higher collections.
He directed officials to intensify action against illegal sand mining, crusher operations, unauthorised transport, and overloading. He said strict enforcement would further strengthen AI revenue growth.

The Deputy Chief Minister said continuous reviews and tighter administration raised GST collections by 15% in the last three months. He added that the Registration department also reported steady revenue growth during this period.
He said the sub-committee would meet every Friday to monitor progress and sustain AI revenue growth. He also asked departments to prepare detailed plans to boost revenue in line with the goal of achieving a $3 trillion economy by 2047.
Uttam Kumar Reddy suggested promoting HMDA land sales globally to attract investors and increase revenue. He said targeted outreach could improve participation and maximise returns.
Bhatti Vikramarka instructed Registration department officials to submit land value revision reports to the sub-committee before placing them before the Cabinet. He said this would ensure detailed scrutiny.
Ministers also reviewed metro rail acquisition, management, revenue, and expenditure during the meeting. They discussed progress in revenue generation in the Excise, Revenue, and Industries departments.
Bhatti Vikramarka directed officials to present action taken reports in subsequent meetings. He said regular monitoring would help track implementation and improve outcomes.
