Other major industry is cement, Birla group's Vasavadatta cement plant is located in Sedam, Rajashree cement is located in Malkhed, ACC cement in Wadi which are considered as some of the major cluster of cement industries in India.
The next major source of income now is IT as most of the Professionals after completing there academics move to IT hubs such as Bengalooru, Hyderabad etc. Gulbarga is considered as one of the most backward region in the country, this is because of lack interest by the government and the politicians in development and economic welfare of the region.
Government has to take few steps to address the basic problems like food, water and education of the rural people. There are only two classes of people here, the very poor and the very rich. The government has yet to take major decisions to make Gulbarga an IT hub.
