Khairtabad is a large suburb in Hyderabad, India. It is the biggest assembly constituency in Andhra Pradesh.

It has a major road junction of five roads called the Khairatabad circle, among the busiest in the city. The roads leading from the junction are towards Somajiguda, Ameerpet, Hussain sagar, Lakdi-ka-pul, and the suburb istself. One such extension of Khairatabad circle is the Raj Bhavan Road, where the residence of the Governor of Andhra Pradesh is located. There are many notable establishments including RTA's (Road transport authority) Head office, Media major ETV's head quarters, ZEE Telefilms, the Press club, College for practising managers, Laymen's church etc. Small companies and educational institutions such as Shadan group are present here.

The Khairatabad flyover starts at the circle and leads to Hussain sagar lake.

The area is named after a Khairunnissa whose tomb is located next to the Khairatabad Mosque though the access is to the backside of the monument. (Speculation) This tomb could be of Khair-un-Nissa, the wife of Captain James Achilles Kirkpatrick mentioned in the 2002 book White Mughals by William Dalrymple, though the book doesnt mention any such tomb.
