‘We wanted to offer a world-class experience to those who landed in India’
An elevator that can carry 200 people at the same time? Reliance Industries has installed the world’s largest passenger elevator at the Jio World Centre (JWC) in the heart of Mumbai city at 25.78 square meter of space. To put it into context, the average size of a one bedroom flat in Mumbai is about 30 square meter.
The elevator, built by Finnish company Kone, took six years of planning. Rajmal Nahar, President, Real Estate Projects, Reliance Industries, said it was the company’s endeavor to create a buzz in the world about JWC. “We wanted to create a monument that is not only a post card for Mumbai but for India. Mumbai is an international hub. We wanted to offer a world-class experience to those who landed in India. We have a phase-wise opening with the Jio Drive, the Fountain,” he said.
