QUESTION
Borewell used for rain water harvesting in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh - Need advice on further drilling

Location of borewell:  17 29 22.62"N, 78 23 59.34"E, KPHB Colony, Hyderabad.
Diameter of the borewell - 4" dia
Depth of the borewell -300 feet

The borewell is approximately 6 years old. Due to shortage of rain fall this dried and we are using the same for water harvesting purposes for last one year. Due to shortage of water, I am planning to dig the same bore for a depth of 1000 feet. Will this help in remedying the situation? Are there any consequences in drilling the well used for rain water harvesting further deep?
