Panjagutta is a commercial and residential area in western Hyderabad, India.[1][2] The area contains IT hubs, shopping malls and jewellery shops. It is a major transit point for traffic to and from the Hyderabad districts of Ameerpet, Banjara hills, Somajiguda and Khairtabad. Twin flyovers across the road junction ease the previously heavy traffic flow.[3]

Etymology

The name Panjagutta means hand-mountain in Telugu, after a nearby peak.[citation needed]
