Siddhavatam is a village in Kadapa district of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is located in Siddavatam mandal of Kadapa revenue division.

This village was initially under the rule of Matli Kings. As the Muslim rulers ruled the South India, it was then brought under the control of the Nawab of Cuddapah. With the advent of British, it was ceded to them by the Nawab. Under the rule of British, Siddavatam served as the headquarters of the district briefly. Currently the city of Cuddapah serves as the headquarters and Siddavatam was reduced to a Mandal in the district.
