Abstract This research paper evaluates the role of tourism in the economic development of Andhra Pradesh, utilizing data from the Regional Tourism Satellite Accounts (TSA) for the year 2015-16. The study aims to quantify the contributions of the tourism sector to the state's Gross Value Added (GVA) and employment, providing a comprehensive analysis of tourism's impact on the local economy. Through a detailed examination of tourism statistics, including the number of visitors, types of tourism, and associated economic metrics, the findings reveal that tourism significantly contributes to both direct and indirect economic activities in Andhra Pradesh. The paper discusses the implications of these findings for policymakers and stakeholders, emphasizing the need for strategic initiatives to enhance tourism's potential as a driver of sustainable economic growth. By identifying key challenges and opportunities within the sector, this research contributes to the broader understanding of tourism's role in regional economic development and offers recommendations for future research and policy formulation.
