You summed up the pros and cons of deflation pretty well—lower living costs and higher purchasing power can benefit consumers and could make Telangana more attractive for tourists and investment.

But the flip side is real: prolonged deflation often hurts business profits, increases the real burden of debt, can trigger layoffs, reduce government tax revenues, and even cause property values to fall, leading to delayed consumer spending and more cautious investment.

Sustained deflation is usually seen as a red flag by economists, since it can signal deeper issues like weak demand or economic stagnation, so it’s important for the state to monitor trends closely and address underlying causes if the pattern continues.
