Jio World Plaza is one of the biggest luxurious malls in India, owned by Mukesh Ambani. It opened to the public on November 1, 2023. It was built to be a one-on-one destination for all your luxurious needs.
This luxurious mall is located at the Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai, India. It was near the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, the Jio World Convention Centre, and the Jio World Garden, which allowed the Jio World Plaza to get even more famous and known worldwide.

It was the vision of Nita Ambani, wife of Mukesh Ambani, to create a single platform for both Indian and foreign brands. Jio World Plaza is going to work as a single platform that will bring many Indian and foreign brands together for selling in one place.
Isha Ambani, executive director of Reliance Retail Venture Limited, recently said:
“Our envisioning of the Jio World Plaza is aimed at bringing the best global brands to India as well as highlighting the prowess and craftsmanship of top Indian brands, and hence creating a very unique retail experience.”
Jio World Plaza design and architecture
Jio World Plaza has four floors and is spread over 7,50,000 sq. ft. This luxurious mall’s design was envisioned as an exclusive hub for retail, leisure, and dining purposes.
The mall’s architecture was inspired by a pure lotus flower and the elements of nature. For this, Reliance contacted a US-based architectural firm named TVS to design the Jio World Plaza. The mall has marble floors and vaulted ceilings.

The shopping place or stores are divided into sculptural patterns, which makes them look even more organized. The whole mall has soft lighting that playfully punctuates the retail space. It generates a sense of luxury.
A famous sculptor, Jitish Kallat, was called by Mukesh Ambani to make the sculpture to welcome the visitors coming from the main gate on the first floor. The mall has a multiplex theater, a food emporium, and world-class restaurants for its visitors.
