This guide covers the tallest buildings in Mumbai under construction. For each one, you'll see how tall it is, how many floors it has, what a home costs and when it is due. It also explains how many skyscrapers Mumbai has today and why so many of the new ones are in South Mumbai.

What are the tallest buildings under construction in Mumbai?

Prestige Ocean Towers in Girgaon is the tallest, at 331 metres and 74 floors, due in June 2030. Sugee Empire Tower (311 m), Prestige Sky Tower (307.7 m) and MICL Aaradhya Avaan (307 m) follow, all due in 2030. The table compares all five towers in this guide.

Heights are planned heights from Wikipedia's list of tallest buildings in Mumbai. Floors, prices and dates are from each project's Relmo listing, October 2026. Aaradhya Avaan's figures are for its taller tower.

How many skyscrapers does Mumbai have?

Mumbai has between 113 and 247 skyscrapers today, depending on the source. A skyscraper here means a building 150 metres or taller.

• Built: Wikipedia's Mumbai list counts 247, including towers that have reached full height but are still being finished. That puts Mumbai 5th in the world. The official database, the Skyscraper Center, counts 113 finished buildings, which puts Mumbai 15th. Wikipedia itself notes that the database under-counts many cities outside the West.
• Being built: Mumbai is first in the world on both counts. Wikipedia counts more than 300 towers under construction (September 2025). Time Out Mumbai, citing the Skyscraper Center, reports more than 200.

Mumbai is building more new skyscrapers than any other city. If even half of them are finished, the skyline will look very different by 2030.

Thane and Navi Mumbai are counted separately. Thane alone has 79 towers under construction, which puts it in the world's top five.

Are Mumbai's skyscrapers homes or offices?

Mostly homes. When you picture a skyscraper, you probably picture an office. In India, that picture is wrong.

About 9 in 10 completed tall buildings in India are homes. Only 6 in 100 are offices. That comes from CBRE's 2023 report Sky is the limit, which uses data from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (reported here).

So when Mumbai builds 300 towers, it is mostly building homes in the sky.

What is the tallest building in Mumbai?

Lokhandwala Minerva is the tallest finished building in Mumbai and in India. It is 301 metres tall (300.6 m in the Skyscraper Center database), with 78 floors, and was finished in 2023. It was the first building in India to pass 300 metres, and it is a residential tower.

You may also see Palais Royale in Worli called India's tallest building. The Skyscraper Center lists it at 297.5 m as "structurally topped out", which means work continues. Some sites give a taller figure of 320 m. The databases we checked still rank Minerva first among finished buildings.

Other tall towers to know

• Prestige Sky Tower, Mahalaxmi: 307.7 m, under construction, due 2030 (Skyscraper Center).
• Palais Royale, Worli: 297.5 m, structurally topped out (Skyscraper Center).

What does a home in a Mumbai skyscraper cost?

Homes in these five towers start at ₹5.8 crore (Sugee Empire Tower) and go up to ₹37 crore (Prestige Ocean Towers). Per square foot of carpet area, prices run from about ₹65,700 to ₹1,05,000.

In these towers, a square foot of carpet area can cost more than ₹1 lakh. We worked out the price per square foot for each project from the starting prices and carpet areas on its Relmo listing.

Relmo listings, October 2026. Sheth One Marina's range is worked out by dividing each listed price by its carpet area. Prices change, so check the listing for the latest figures.

Even the cheapest of these five starts at ₹5.8 Cr. Three of the five reach about ₹1 lakh a square foot at the top of their range.

Key terms

• Skyscraper: here, a building 150 metres (492 ft) or taller. This is the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) definition used by the Skyscraper Center.
• Supertall: a building taller than 300 metres. Lokhandwala Minerva was India's first.
• Topped out: the building has reached its full height, and work continues inside and out.
• Carpet area: the usable floor area inside a home, measured inside its walls. Prices per square foot in this guide use carpet area.
• MahaRERA: Maharashtra's real estate regulator. Every project listed here has a MahaRERA registration number.

Where these numbers are uncertain

Four limits apply to every figure above.

• Some towers will run late. Under-construction lists include delayed towers. Wikipedia still lists 2022 for Sheth One Marina, which is now due in December 2028.
• Counts differ. Wikipedia's lists are kept by volunteers. The Skyscraper Center is stricter but misses buildings. Both still put Mumbai first for towers under construction.
• Heights are planned heights. They can change before a building is finished.
• Prices change. The prices above were checked on Relmo in October 2026.
