The administrative capital of the western seaboard state of Maharashtra — India’s most industrialised state accounting for 18 percent of the country’s annual industrial output — Mumbai is widely acknowledged as India’s financial and business capital.
Hosting India’s busiest airport and seaport and corporate headquarters of industry behemoths such as Reliance Industries, Tata Sons, the Aditya Birla and Godrej conglomerates, major banks, financial institutions and insurance companies, the maximum city is also the epicentre of the country’s Hindi-language movie and television industry popularly known as Bollywood.
The city also houses premier science and technology education and research institutions apart from public sector nuclear power generation companies such as the Nuclear Power Corporation of India, Department of Atomic Energy, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research and the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay among others.
Some of the best schools in Mumbai date back to the pre-Independence era. Over the years, they have continued to remain relevant and sought after by continually adapting to the changing times while retaining their vintage charm. Ranked India’s best city for students in the QS Best Student Cities Ranking 2023, Mumbai also boasts the highest density of international schools vis-a-vis other Indian cities.
