India’s largest outlet mall in Maharashtra has launched in Bhiwandi, offering shoppers discounts of up to 70% and operating all year round.
A new retail complex billed as the first and biggest "Outlet Mall of India" in Maharashtra has officially opened in the industrial town of Bhiwandi. The mall houses a range of national and international brands, each offering merchandise at reduced prices that can go as high as 70 percent off the regular retail rate.
The development is positioned as a one‑stop destination for value‑seeking shoppers from Mumbai and surrounding regions, promising a year‑round shopping experience without seasonal closures. By operating 365 days a year, the outlet aims to capture both weekend footfall and weekday traffic from nearby factories and residential areas.
Industry observers note that the mall could reshape the retail landscape in the state by encouraging a shift towards discount‑driven consumer behaviour. While exact footfall numbers are yet to be released, the management expects the outlet to become a major draw for price‑sensitive buyers across western India.
Local authorities have welcomed the project, highlighting its potential to generate employment and boost ancillary services in Bhiwandi. The mall’s opening aligns with broader efforts to diversify the region’s economic base beyond its traditional logistics and manufacturing sectors.
