Mumbai

Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay) has grown from a seven-island city to one of the largest metropolitan cities in India. It is also India's financial & commercial capital and has evolved into a global financial hub. For several decades it has been home to the country's major financial services and a focus on both infrastructure development and private investment. Contributes to approx. 6.16% of India’s total GDP contributes 10% to factory employment, 30% to income tax collections, 60% to customs duty collections, 20% to central excise tax collections, and 40% to foreign trade. Until the 1970s, Mumbai owed its prosperity largely to textile mills and the seaport, but the local economy has since diversified to financial engineering, diamond polishing, healthcare, FMCG and information technology.

The key sectors contributing to the city's economy are BFSI, Automobiles & Auto components, Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Consulting Services, Consumer Goods & Services, Co-working Spaces, Energy, Engineering & Manufacturing, Healthcare, Information Technology, Media, Real Estate, Telecom, Transportation (including Logistics), Travel & Tourism and others. Nariman Point and Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) are Mumbai's major financial centres.
