Yss, u can open a branch in same partnership name provided that in deed u should provide such firm info and agreed by all partners.
the only to do is to obtain diff VAT registration because VAT is state wise different. but hyderabad is in AP so no need to obtain different VAT regi no as ur partnership deed is registered under AP.

Yes, you will need separate registration if the VAT rules of Telangana so provide. There must be specific provision in Telangana VAT Act for transitional cases and validity of AP VAT registration. However if the firm has been registed after creation of Telangana State, then separate registration is mandatory.
