 Dispur, the capital of Assam, lies in Guwahati. The passing of the North Eastern (Reorganization Areas) Act in 1971 by the [[Indian Parliament]] accorded [[Meghalaya]] the status of a full-fledged state. After the creation of Meghalaya as a separate state, Shillong continued to be the joint capital of both Assam and Meghalaya. However, in 1972, the Government of Assam decided to shift the capital to Dispur.

+The manufacturing sector in Guwahati contributes a substantial share to the economy of the city. Petroleum manufacturing is an important economic activity in the city. The [[Guwahati Refinery]] is the most important manufacturing industry in the city. Located at Noonmati, the refinery was set up by the Indian Oil Corporation Limited as the first public sector refinery of India as well as the refinery of Indian Oil since 1962. It was built with an initial crude processing capacity of 0.75&nbsp;million [[tonne]]s per year at the time of its commission which was gradually increased to 1.0&nbsp;million tonnes per year. It produces various products and supplies them to the other northeast states and also beyond to Siliguri through the Guwahati-Siliguri pipeline. The various products produced by the refinery include Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), Kerosene Oil, Turbine Fuel (aviation use), Motor Spirit, High-Speed Motor Diesel, Light Diesel Oil, and Raw Petroleum Coke.

 Tea manufacturing and processing is another important activity of Guwahati. Assam is one of the highest tea-producing areas in the world, contributing 80% of India's export and 55% of the country's total tea production. So high is the production of tea in Assam that it is the biggest industry of the state. The headquarters of the [[Indian Tea Association|Assam Branch Indian Tea Association (ABITA)]] is located at Guwahati. The [[Guwahati Tea Auction Centre]] (GTAC), located adjacent to the capital complex at Dispur, is the world's largest CTC tea auction center and the second largest in terms of total tea auctioned. The inaugural sale took place on 25 September 1970 and the first lot of tea was auctioned at the price of Rs. 42.50 which, during those days, was a big achievement. In the month of August 2019, a kilogram of Maijan Orthodox Golden tea sold for a record-setting price of Rs 70,501 at the [[Guwahati Tea Auction Centre]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/guwahati/assams-maijan-tea-fetches-rs-70000-for-a-kilo-breaks-record/articleshow/70479878.cms|title=Assam's Maijan tea fetches Rs 70,000 for a kilo, breaks record |date=1 August 2019|first=Prabin |last=Kalita|website=The Times of India|language=en|access-date=2019-09-21}}</ref>

 Public transportation is well developed in the city. Buses are the major means of public transport in Guwahati. The state-owned Assam State Urban Transport Corporation, a subsidiary of [[Assam State Transport Corporation]] (ASTC) and private operators provide the city bus services within the city. ASTC also operates the [[Volvo]] [[air-conditioned]] bus services within the city as well as to the LGBI airport. In addition to this, there are a number of private bus operators that regularly run day and night bus services from Guwahati to neighbouring towns and cities within [[Assam]] and the other Northeastern States. Rupnath Brahma Inter-State Bus Terminus (ISBT), located at Betkuchi area on NH-37, is the most significant terminal cum transit point for buses plying between Guwahati and other destinations in Assam and Northeast India.
