Legacy hubs like Nariman Point have already experienced cycles of decline and reinvention over the past two decades as businesses migrated to newer districts like BKC. A similar decentralisation could occur again, with corporate functions gradually spreading across the wider metropolitan region rather than remaining concentrated in a few historic clusters. Such a shift would not necessarily weaken Mumbai’s economy. Instead, it could reshape it into a more polycentric metropolitan structure, where multiple business hubs coexist and complement each other. In many global cities, from London to New York, commercial activity is no longer confined to a single central district. Instead, it spreads across several interconnected hubs that specialise in different sectors and functions.
