Mumbai, being the financial capital of India, was the first city to witness the influx of financial and services multinational companies. By 1997, the real estate prices increased to the point where the companies started looking for cheaper, cost-effective locations and Indian real estate witnessed emergence of new alternative/peripheral business districts in all the major cities in India," reports
