[3] Many other Indian metro towns in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Goa, Odisha and Chhattisgarh are also linked with the services of TGSRTC.
[5] On 23 May 2024, Government of Telangana decided to change the name from TSRTC to TGSRTC to avoid confusion with Tamilnadu State Express Transport Corporation.
The goal of Vajra was to reduce the hassle of commuters having to travel to a bus station in Hyderabad in order to board an intercity service.
Vajra bridged that gap by providing intercity services from various colonies in Hyderabad to Warangal, Nizamabad, Godavarikhani and Karimnagar city.
TGSRTC operates Garuda plus buses on intercity and interstate routes between urban centers such as Khammam-Bengaluru, Hyderabad-Adilabad, Hyderabad-Karimnagar, Hyderabad-Mumbai, Hyderabad-Vijayawada, Hyderabad-Bengaluru, Nizamabad-Bengaluru, Nizamabad-Tirupati,[9] Warangal-Bengaluru, Godavarikhani-Bengaluru, Karimnagar-Bengaluru, Hyderabad-Pune, Hyderabad-Chennai, Hyderabad-Nagpur, Hyderabad-Bhadrachalam, Hyderabad-Kakinada.
TGSRTC launched 10 Electric Intercity AC buses built by Olectra (CX2 model) which are branded as 'E-Garuda' on 16 May 2023.
For the first time in the State, the TGSRTC has introduced sleeper buses(both A/c[11] and Non-A/c[12]) into its fleet for the convenience of passengers travelling long distances.
These buses have been named ‘Lahari’, which have been made available for the first time in the State, as an alternative to the services of private operators.
The first batch of BS6 Super luxury buses built on Ashok Leyland chassis was inaugurated in the capital city of Telangana.
TSRTC runs city route buses in urban areas like Suryapet, Mahabubnagar, Siddipet, Godavarikhani and Khammam.
These buses constitute the majority of TGSRTC's fleet, and are used to provide connectivity to villages and small towns.
TGSRTC also provides buses for special hire to individuals and organisations for any purpose such as tours, pilgrimage, marriage transport, excursions etc.
Additionally, in 2024, TSRTC launched electric bus services (i.e., e-METRO AC and e-CITY ORDINARY) on various routes from the Hyderabad Central University (HCU) and Secunderabad Cantonment depots.
During the COVID-19 crisis, TGSRTC cargo vehicles were used extensively to transport pharmaceuticals and medicinal supplies, as well as farm goods, groceries, and other logistics for the government.
[33] The strike was met with brutal suppression from the state government and Telangana Police, who fired non lethal rounds into crowds of protestors, as well as taking a large number of them into custody.
[34] Unable to continue amid the brutal suppression, the workers were finally forced into calling off the strike on 25 November.
