In 1871, William King of the Geological Survey of India discovered coal near [[Yellandu]] in Khammam district. The Hyderabad (Deccan) Company Limited, incorporated in England, acquired mining rights in 1886 to exploit coal found in the Yellandu area.

In 1871, William King of the Geological Survey of India discovered coal near Yellandu in Khammam district. The Hyderabad (Deccan) Company Limited, incorporated in England, acquired mining rights in 1886 to exploit coal found in the Yellandu area. The State of Hyderabad purchased the majority of the company's shares in 1945.
