'''''Cycas beddomei''''' is a species of [[cycad]] in the genus ''[[Cycas]]'', native to [[India]], where it is confined to a small area of [[Andhra Pradesh]] state in the [[Tirumala Hills]] in [[Deccan thorn scrub forests|scrubland and brush covered hills]].

Superficially similar to ''[[Cycas revoluta]]'', it has erect, solitary stems. There are 20-30 [[leaf|leaves]] in the crown, each leaf 90&nbsp;cm long, stiff, lanceolate, pinnate, with 50-100 pairs of leaflets, these 10-17.5&nbsp;cm long and 3–4&nbsp;mm wide, and angled forward at 45 degrees; the leaf petiole bears minute spines.

The female [[strobilus|cones]] are open, with [[sporophyll]]s 15–20&nbsp;cm long, with pink-brown coloured tomentose down, with two ovules. The cones emerge in November to December, ripening in March to May. The [[Leaf|lamina]] margin is strongly toothed, with an acuminate point. The [[sarcotesta]] is yellow to brown. The male cones are solitary, ovoid, 30&nbsp;cm long and 7.5&nbsp;cm broad, with an apical spine and rhomboid sporophyll face.
