@Dc Account it's not just being surrounded by water but a lot of other factors. Well I'm no expert so I wouldn't know. But mumbai does have a lot of satellite cities maybe that's where the future is.
@@MarginalRevolutionUniversity One additional information to the video: the importance of electric elevators. Before the invention of the electric elevator, buildings were much less taller. The electric elevator made modern urbanization viable.
@Yoo Yoo but mumbai is more dense, US is spreaded and has better hygine or even every aspect. while mumbai is only concentrated on small area like dharavi slum
Govt has a vested interest to keep FSI small. They create artificial scarcity to help their friends(Politicians and builders). Any one buying a property now in Indian cities is either supremely optimistic or extremely stupid.
People have more positive opinion about owning land than a flat in high rise apartment. Independent house and plots are more preferred for long term investments.
Not to mention it's safer and better in every single way. But beggars can't be choosers. For Mumbai it has to be large skyscrapers with good public-transit, for pune it could be a big city with good high speed public transit
@@shrihara a 5 floor apartment is inhertingly safer than a 20 floor apartment. In any case of disaster, a 5 floor apartment can be evacuated far more easily than a skyscraper, by the simple maths that in taller buildings more people will have to pass through a specific unit of area than if the building was shorter. And if your building is wider than is taller (as is in most shorter structures), you can have more methods of evacuation, that is more stairs and elevators per unit of area. Not to mention, a lot of space does indeed gets wasted building taller buildings. It may sound contrardictary to the whole notion, but you can't build 200 meters high on mere 1000 square feet. Infact You need more space to make sure that the building is stable, and your lower floors will have to be wider than the floors above. And this is not even mentioning other things like health care, children health and mental health. It's far easier to get someone medical help if he's not living a 100 metres above ground, unless off course every apparent has its own doctor and hospital. Another problem is societal interaction. The ease of accessing the outside world in shorter building promotes people getting outside regularly and not only on work, but this ease is absent in taller buildings. Infact the act of climbing down(or using the elevators) might serve the opposite. And to add it, In a tall building, you at most know the person on the same floor, and even then, it's highly likely that they remain mere acquaintances. This wouldn't happen in shorter buildings. And before you say that existence of elevators makes up for the inconveniences of living further from the ground, the overuse of elevators will cause even more health problems like obesity. All and all, skycrapers aren't the best way of dealing with housing problems, as it would create new problems instead. The answer is always good city planning, having a sprawling residential area connected to the commercial and market area by good and convenient high speed public transit.
Are people really unaware of such concepts? Mumbai really needs to increase FSI from 1 to 20 atleast by this year itself. Another question is, why wouldn't cities around the world keep FSI infinity?
It's not safe.. Consider the example of Chennai.. During heavy floods buildings got destructed because the ground underneath cannot support the weight.. The FSI value should really depend on the soil quality and each building built with a large fsi should ideally be reconstructed after a prescribed time usually around 40-50 years. In india that is pretty much not the case.
@@-Rishikesh so the soil quality in India and in Mumbai is poor? Why is New York City building tall skyscrapers then? Is Mumbai's soil quality poorer than that of New York's?
Good points dilip. There are 30 storey tall buildings greater noida, selling for a price of 3000rs per sqft. Most are well built, have swimming pool, great gardens, etc Mumbai prices are kept artificially high by politicians, builders, etc who already own property and want to see its value 100x
Hahahahaha Mumbai and Maharashtra deserves this condition for choosing such corrupt and irresponsible govt. Keep suffering guys🤣🤣🤣. Aur chuno chutiya sarkar.
I think it is wise to do so Since India itself is a large country. It doesn't need to construct the city like any other mega city in the world. I, myself, don't like tall building at all. But the problem need to solve for Indian is to increase the width of the road for the future prosperity. Love from China.
This is starting to change, they got like >115 buildings under construction that are at least 200 meters in height. About 27 of them are 300 or more meters. There's likely to be a bunch more coming after these are completed. Especially if the projected population is 63 million by 2050...
This is such a wonderful video! It explains economics concepts as well as a daily life problem in a city like Mumbai. I would request Marginal Revolution University to create more videos, especially on commuting in cities like Mumbai and work issues faced by city-dwellers in corporate offices due to bad economic policy decisions.
I would love to see if the new FSI policy actually takes place in the future, and how it will change Mumbai :) Thank you very much for the video! I am preparing for an exam in Microeconomics now. And when I get tired from calculations, it's nice to watch your videos for inspiration. Well done!
i hate mumbai bcoz of over crowded population, congested roads,huge traffic & sweating warm humid weather which makes me mumbai bad so i reside in Navi Mumbai which is one of the most cleanest and most livable city in India

Can people stop placing the Statue of Liberty in the ny skyline It's actually shorts and to the side, not big and in the middle Source: I've lived in ny my whole life
One more reason for the higher land cost in Mumbai is the long pending civil litigation with respect to properties resulting in fewer litigation free plots of land to build on. Being a Lawyer I see the long pending civil litigations in the courts every day. According to me almost 70-80% or may be more of the undeveloped plots of land in Mumbai are under some kind of litigation
Nice video! It's really annoying when the other videos on RUclips say it's all because of capitalism and not enough socialism that India has slums but when you research enough, it's always government control that is at the heart of these things
The other side of building skyscrapers is maintaining them. And believe me, when it comes to maintainanace of anything, we indians are worst. We have corruption in saftey board beurocrats, and many of buildings/apartments in suburbs are already waiting for redevelopment. In some cases, people have died as old buildings have collapsed. Demolition of older buildings/apartment is not a common practice in India unlike Manhattan, Hong Kong, etc. Before thinking of higher FSI in India, we must execute stringent saftey policies for people who would be living/working in such skyscrapers.
In terms of living life, Mumbai is a failed city. Although it is the financial capital and it has Bollywood, but it still has multitude of problems for the common man
I've lived in Bombay for 13 years and I love it. IDK what you're implying by "failed" city. It wasn't created keeping urban planning in mind. I have a feeling you're someone who lives in Mulund or Ghatkopar and you're experiencing problems. I grew up and live in Bandra so I love every aspect of our city.
I've lived in mumbai and hyderabad five years at a time in each city I'd say mumbai is just overhyped it failed to meet my expectations but hyderabad was just overwhelming its the best city in india and the cherry on the top it's place for a common man to live
Hahahahaha Mumbai and Maharashtra deserves this condition for choosing such corrupt and irresponsible govt. Keep suffering guys🤣🤣🤣. Aur chuno chutiya sarkar.
What I sometimes do not understand is, why are only folks migrating to Mumbai ? There are big cities like Pune ,Nashik and Thane in Maharashtra that can be developed as giant commercial hubs..that would definitely reduced part of the population burden so why only head to one place ? .
that last point is exactly how so many people in my country think. Is such a backwards mentality that doesn't allow development and better living conditions to strive. High is the way to go.
Do we have more video concerning this FSI problem in Mumbai? I remember that higher FSI introduce ground water and waste water problem. We need deeper discussion to gain more complete insight.
Also, if you allow higher FSI in new area, assuming the rent will be cheaper, of course people will move there! To avoid localised density increase, allowance should be made strategically. I suspect there's something left unsaid in the 2nd interview.
bro, the video is absolutely true. Its a nexus of politicians and builders .The careless, ignorant, inefficient and, moreover, corrupt govt won't increase the fsi, so that they can make money under the table.
its probably an old video because the second interviewee says that FSI is 1.3 which has already been increased to 1.83 and then to further for a proposed 2.5 around 10 Jan, 2018
The solution is not simple as increasing FSI. An increased FSI will overburden existing infrastructure around skyscraper. Best example is lower Parel which experiences traffic jam and cramming at train station during office peak hours. What we need is a proper city planning.
Mumbai needs to invest in Public rental housing like Japan's Danchi system. This can create a lot egalitarianism among the residents of Mumbai. For sure training will be required for the initial batch of these paying guests to live in this Form of Public housing, its maintenance & other habits.
Hahahahaha Mumbai and Maharashtra deserves this condition for choosing such corrupt and irresponsible govt. Keep suffering guys🤣🤣🤣. Aur chuno chutiya sarkar.
I am not Indian. I do not know the exact situation there. But it does follow that there would be intense pressure from land and housing developers to keep competitors out of their business. The tighter the monopoly they can hold, the more they can charge for the property. As it so often does in many other areas, regulation becomes big business' means of staying big.
Higher FSIs in cities with bad public transportation mean more traffic and traffic costs the economy money. In Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo that cost is estimated to be around 30 BILLION dollars per year.
Good video but the Maximum fsi in mumbai is 3 not 1.3...1.3 is the fsi that you can build for free...for the additional 1.7 fsi you have to buy it from the government by paying them a fee
Hahahahaha Mumbai and Maharashtra deserves this condition for choosing such corrupt and irresponsible govt. Keep suffering guys🤣🤣🤣. Aur chuno chutiya sarkar.

Stupid Indian government needs to get out of its own way. Remove trade barriers, remove red tapes, increase FSI to 10 or 20, remove rent control and get rid of subsidies.... #FreeMarketForTheWin
Theres definitely more to this than meets the eye. The interviewer only showed one side of the story by systematically editing interviews to suit his narrative and also by not interviewing experts and politicians who are in favour of lower FSI, at all. The western rules are not applicable here in India, because for example, USA has a population of 30 crores wheres as Indian population is 125 crores hence we need bigger cities to urbanise more people. Also, a high FSI will lower down ground water levels. This reporting is totally biased.
Indeed. This video is just a tool for advocating higher FSI without a care about the consequences. Read this:- www.sdmarchitects.com/does-mumbai-need-more-fsi-or-less.html FSI is just a tool. Mumbai needs more tools, only regulating FSI does no good.
Prakash Tiwari It's not biased. U r blind enough to see d problems that persists in our country (not only in Mumbai). U r being biased by not accepting d facts.
many people who live in slums have houses , they just put them on rent and prefer to live in slums . Since it becomes a good source of money for them .
Is the fear of more dense areas really the only reason why FSI limits are a thing? Or is there something else that could get cities thinking about them?

1.3 fsi is not their because they think that more people will come to Mumbai to live but it is there to maintain the gap between the demand and supply and by that to keep it more profitable with less work and also to maintain the gap between rich and middle class.but what the backfire is that they have raise the price too high that it even out of reach to the higher middle class now the only hope is to convert their properties into the NPA in bulk so that load have to be beard by the the PSU banks and ultimately by the people of country.
even if I FSI get higher there will be slums....It is nowhere close to the solution of solving slum issues.....It will increase the surrounding land-price much more and how on earth these poor people will get space that will be affordable to them???
But you don't really get much density advantage choosing skyscrapers over traditional 5-6 storey urbanism. You have to leave room for sunlight and ventilation (body heat alone limits you to
vicky singh He didn't say population should double. He said that if fsi is increasing, then people might feel that population is also increasing and will not understand that it actually creates more space.
i have analysed new york's fsi even in manhattan is not much more than mumbai......by the way manhattan is not 57sq km its under 40sq km which i have verified using google earth where i discovered that nearly all landmasses have been geographically enlarged by around 40-50% [india is the exception where the landmasses are shown smaller than their actual size] which means mumbai is not that much more dense than manhattan within its built up area.........also manhattan's true population is under 500,000 not 1.5 million as reported [from my analysis] and the 5 boroughs add up to around 4 million not 8 million plus......mumbai is actually bigger than the 5 boroughs and has around 10 million plus .....22 million is including all the nearby suburban areas like kalyan,ulhasnagar, virar, navi mumbai etc like the greater new york new jersey metropolitan area
I don't get this fsi, Mumbai now building some of the tallest skyscrapers in the world, I think this video is either outdated or there something more than what these guys are talking.
Fsi is basically floor space index.. it's a ratio of the buildable area to the plot of land available... If the fsi is 1.5 for a 1000 sq m plot of land then we can build 1500 sq m on it over multiple floors depending on design.. if it's 9 then it's 9000 square metre of buildable area on the same plot...it's a lil complicated yeah
FSI doesn't limit the amount of floors you can build. You could theoretically construct a 130 story skyscraper in Mumbai as long as you use 1% or less of the land you bought. 50% -> 2.6 stories 25% -> 5.2 stories 10% -> 13 stories 1% -> 130 stories
Using the Lodha One World example (tallest expected residence in the world), here is the site plan: content.makaan.com/1/501532/295/lodha-group-world-one-layout-plan-1030335.jpeg?width=1024&height=576 I'd estimate that the building occupies less than 5% of the entire plot, and certain parts of Mumbai may have a higher FSI ratio than others. The 1.3 FSI is the average value across Mumbai. Business districts tend to have higher FSI.
7:15 what's to say the population won't double if the FSI is increased? Won't other Indians from other cities take advantage of the higher FSI leading to more crowding?
^that's not true , it's the costliest in India .Just take Mumbai metro fares for instance . but relative to other big cities of the world it's very cheap
there are 500 cities in india,some have the lowest price,no one has asked poor to live in city which u cant afford...goto a place where prices are appropriate to you...delhi,mumbai are hub of corporated & people earn finest salaries so if you are here living on 10k...u are going to end up in slum,...shift to other growing cities,these migrants are fool they live only in big cities & dont care about the living standards Delhi mumbai kolkata banglore hyderabad are some most expensice cities of world!!
that 20 is due to subsidy...remove the caps & mumbaikers will be on street(well they are already) like beggers..see the response of AC local,it is running empty,but claim to have highest per capita income
Mumbai is same as Chennai in Chennai we have huge population but very few people has capable to buy few things this make failure of sales of luxurious flat or ghost house, office space and commercial building, Luxury car, Luxury Bike, Luxury private flights and helicopter etc in Chennai only udhayanithi friends, Kalanithi workers, Karunanithi family members Binomi and outside elements of Karunanithi business alliance only do have Money those outside elements of Karunanithi, Udhayanidhi friends, Kalanithi workers do not buy none of Luxurious Properties, Luxury Bike, Luxury Car, Luxury lifestyle and Luxury flat etc result failure due to incapable and wrong mobilisation of Money result in Chennai, domestic Car Company, domestic Bike and Local Brand Boom because above listed do buy respective listed domestic product/service under Karunanithi family members businesses tie up or deal include foreign product under Karunanithi family Brand but Foreign Car, Foreign Bike, Foreign Corporate do failure if it not Brand by Karunanithi udhayanithi family it also include various Business Criminology crime and State Craft against Foreign Brand by Karunanithi family members network
Divyesh Sonawane Cause you only look one side and not all the sides. And making a statue doesn't make the govt. Not focus the fucking issue, it doesn't happen all of a sudden
What would happen if FSI of Mumbai will increase to 12 or 15 like New York or Chicago, another Mumbai will appear vertically above the existing Mumbai. More space will be available for residential and commercial activities. After increasing FSI, the vehicle population will definitely increase, but does our existing roads cater that traffic which were generated by additional FSI? Though the share of public transport in Mumbai is high compared to other metro cities but still city roads are congested. We vertically creates new city but for commuting from one place to another place you have to come on roads. Today for 1.3 FSI, city roads are so congested that the average peak hour speed lies between 20 to 30 Kmph, after increasing FSI the situation will be worsen, hence to cater this situation we have to provide additional space for roads, do we have space for widening of city Roads? Maximum city roads are already occupied by on street vehicle parking. Increasing FSI might help in creating additional space for on street vehicles but still we need capacity augmentation of road infrastructure, this requires enormous amount of funding. Increasing FSI and creating additional space is not that simple as mentioned by Mr. Kshitij Batra and Mr. Reuben Abraham, you have to think every aspects of planning. Do we have such policy like Singapore for owning a new vehicle or controlling the growth of vehicle population? There are many constrains that are directly related to FSI.
Pran Pavi ok you do the unskilled work which pays low, very risky to ones health etc.. Such anti poor attitude will only worsen the situation. Everyone need to develop.
AR98 best talent give me a break...these days engineering graduates are ready to petty jobs for small pay. Not all are born with silver spoon. And every one irrespective of region, religion or cast needs equal chance. Development doesn't include only GDP , it also includes human development index, go read about it. Such archaic mindset only that only people from my community must prosper is a result of divide and rule by the British and you are just following it.
when Delhi fell short in space its just add up lands from neighborhood.
Delhi is in an ideal location for that. I dont think its the best option, despite the location of the river valley and its flat plains for building
But mumbai is a costal city it can't do that.
@Dc Account it's not just being surrounded by water but a lot of other factors. Well I'm no expert so I wouldn't know. But mumbai does have a lot of satellite cities maybe that's where the future is.

Mumbai needs to invest in Public rental housing like Japan's Danchi system.
This can create a lot egalitarianism among the residents of Mumbai.
For sure training will be required for the initial batch of these paying guests to live in this Form of Public housing, its maintenance & other habits.
white man saying mumbai and they are saying bombay wow great

Hahahahaha Mumbai and Maharashtra deserves this condition for choosing such corrupt and irresponsible govt. Keep suffering guys🤣🤣🤣. Aur chuno chutiya sarkar.
Why ain’t government increasing the fsi? Imean now government is taking up development projects
Its easy corruption and ignorance.
amrit prusty because infra is not built accordingly
I am not Indian. I do not know the exact situation there. But it does follow that there would be intense pressure from land and housing developers to keep competitors out of their business. The tighter the monopoly they can hold, the more they can charge for the property. As it so often does in many other areas, regulation becomes big business' means of staying big.
Higher FSIs in cities with bad public transportation mean more traffic and traffic costs the economy money. In Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo that cost is estimated to be around 30 BILLION dollars per year.
Yet Sao Paulo looks far better than Mumbai in terms of roads and infrastructure
Increasing fsi means more erosion too
How??
You rather prefer people living in slums. You are a genius. I want to know what kind of drugs that you are on. Must be good.

Good video but the Maximum fsi in mumbai is 3 not 1.3...1.3 is the fsi that you can build for free...for the additional 1.7 fsi you have to buy it from the government by paying them a fee
What would government have low fsi like how does it benefit them

Please! Make a video on Indian Economic History.
This is such a good video, it's too bad only $16 worth of views!
I'd invest in this channel's future though.
Building higher is more better than horizontal sprawl.
I think I've read somewhere that Mumbai was built on delta, not like New York where it's on bed rock. Maybe that's that
New york is also an island city with quite less land
indian government should not limit the FSI
mumbai has 12th highest number of buildings over 200 m in the world . It's wrong to say that the average height of buildings in the city is LOW
It's 100 not 200 mts
Wow! this was very educational. Thank you for your research and time in making this. As a local of Mumbai, I really appreciate this.
Stupid Indian government needs to get out of its own way. Remove trade barriers, remove red tapes, increase FSI to 10 or 20, remove rent control and get rid of subsidies.... #FreeMarketForTheWin
22 million is population of Mumbai metropolitan region
Good video, I learn new things :)
Yeah ,, do critising ,,we will grow and grow and definitely reach at the top of the word ,,
@3:48...It says it all
Useful information
What is the name of that poster with the organizational chart in the background?
FSI is small because bombay can not handle too much population. Govt wants to limit it.
Good info
in dhaka per sq km 44,400 piopuls live and in mumbai per sq km 31,700 piopuls live
Problem is in the Roads network.
Theres definitely more to this than meets the eye. The interviewer only showed one side of the story by systematically editing interviews to suit his narrative and also by not interviewing experts and politicians who are in favour of lower FSI, at all. The western rules are not applicable here in India, because for example, USA has a population of 30 crores wheres as Indian population is 125 crores hence we need bigger cities to urbanise more people. Also, a high FSI will lower down ground water levels. This reporting is totally biased.
Indeed. This video is just a tool for advocating higher FSI without a care about the consequences. Read this:-
www.sdmarchitects.com/does-mumbai-need-more-fsi-or-less.html
FSI is just a tool. Mumbai needs more tools, only regulating FSI does no good.
Mumbai doesn't use ground water. Almost all of its water comes from reservoirs.
Prakash Tiwari It's not biased. U r blind enough to see d problems that persists in our country (not only in Mumbai). U r being biased by not accepting d facts.
Promoting Trump towers maybe

What is the use of making tall buildings
Poor people can't afford them
many people who live in slums have houses , they just put them on rent and prefer to live in slums . Since it becomes a good source of money for them .
Is the fear of more dense areas really the only reason why FSI limits are a thing? Or is there something else that could get cities thinking about them?

Son geniales sus vídeos :)
1.3 fsi is not their because they think that more people will come to Mumbai to live but it is there to maintain the gap between the demand and supply and by that to keep it more profitable with less work and also to maintain the gap between rich and middle class.but what the backfire is that they have raise the price too high that it even out of reach to the higher middle class now the only hope is to convert their properties into the NPA in bulk so that load have to be beard by the the PSU banks and ultimately by the people of country.
even if I FSI get higher there will be slums....It is nowhere close to the solution of solving slum issues.....It will increase the surrounding land-price much more and how on earth these poor people will get space that will be affordable to them???
Good post
Judiciary wont allow it unless they get a share of it
mumbai was just like shanghai 25years ago 。。。
I dont think its nice to compare countries and cities..
But you don't really get much density advantage choosing skyscrapers over traditional 5-6 storey urbanism. You have to leave room for sunlight and ventilation (body heat alone limits you to
Y u want the population to double if fsi is 2.6. People will live comfortably with higher space
vicky singh He didn't say population should double.
He said that if fsi is increasing, then people might feel that population is also increasing and will not understand that it actually creates more space.
i have analysed new york's fsi even in manhattan is not much more than mumbai......by the way manhattan is not 57sq km its under 40sq km which i have verified using google earth where i discovered that nearly all landmasses have been geographically enlarged by around 40-50% [india is the exception where the landmasses are shown smaller than their actual size] which means mumbai is not that much more dense than manhattan within its built up area.........also manhattan's true population is under 500,000 not 1.5 million as reported [from my analysis] and the 5 boroughs add up to around 4 million not 8 million plus......mumbai is actually bigger than the 5 boroughs and has around 10 million plus .....22 million is including all the nearby suburban areas like kalyan,ulhasnagar, virar, navi mumbai etc like the greater new york new jersey metropolitan area
This video was very Informative, Thank you.
Honestly, before watching the video, I assumed it to be a just another "India-bashing" video. I was wrong. More videos please!
Mumbai
22 million population. R u smoking weed. It's 18 million as of 2015
Siddharth Kumar
12 million in proper mumbai, 18 in metro mumbai
And u smokimg marijuana? 18M was in 2011. Adding 4M in 7 is no big deal, Bangalore and Hyderabad have done same to themselves.
I don't get this fsi, Mumbai now building some of the tallest skyscrapers in the world, I think this video is either outdated or there something more than what these guys are talking.
Fsi is basically floor space index.. it's a ratio of the buildable area to the plot of land available... If the fsi is 1.5 for a 1000 sq m plot of land then we can build 1500 sq m on it over multiple floors depending on design.. if it's 9 then it's 9000 square metre of buildable area on the same plot...it's a lil complicated yeah
FSI doesn't limit the amount of floors you can build. You could theoretically construct a 130 story skyscraper in Mumbai as long as you use 1% or less of the land you bought.
50% -> 2.6 stories
25% -> 5.2 stories
10% -> 13 stories
1% -> 130 stories
the point is you can't build 300mts tall tower with 1.3 FSI. Then just imagine how big the area they got to leave.
Using the Lodha One World example (tallest expected residence in the world), here is the site plan: content.makaan.com/1/501532/295/lodha-group-world-one-layout-plan-1030335.jpeg?width=1024&height=576
I'd estimate that the building occupies less than 5% of the entire plot, and certain parts of Mumbai may have a higher FSI ratio than others. The 1.3 FSI is the average value across Mumbai. Business districts tend to have higher FSI.
Marcos B you have no idea . If 1 building is on hold , 5 start construction ! .
I think they beat the phillippines to the most slum city because the slum of the phillippines is slowy go out
HATAKE KAKASHI nah .Mumbai is also demolishing slums and providing rehabilitation
Thank You !!!
7:15 what's to say the population won't double if the FSI is increased? Won't other Indians from other cities take advantage of the higher FSI leading to more crowding?
Someone explain to me how the poor can live where the land value is so high? Is there price controls there?
See: marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2017/04/twisted-tale-rent-control-maximum-city.html
From what it looks like, it's a combination of being grandfathered into rent-controlled units and living in slums instead of formal housing.
^that's not true , it's the costliest in India .Just take Mumbai metro fares for instance . but relative to other big cities of the world it's very cheap
there are 500 cities in india,some have the lowest price,no one has asked poor to live in city which u cant afford...goto a place where prices are appropriate to you...delhi,mumbai are hub of corporated & people earn finest salaries so if you are here living on 10k...u are going to end up in slum,...shift to other growing cities,these migrants are fool they live only in big cities & dont care about the living standards
Delhi mumbai kolkata banglore hyderabad are some most expensice cities of world!!
that 20 is due to subsidy...remove the caps & mumbaikers will be on street(well they are already) like beggers..see the response of AC local,it is running empty,but claim to have highest per capita income
Actually, prices are not high..They are unaffordable now.

What would happen if FSI of Mumbai will increase to 12 or 15 like New York or Chicago, another Mumbai will appear vertically above the existing Mumbai. More space will be available for residential and commercial activities.
After increasing FSI, the vehicle population will definitely increase, but does our existing roads cater that traffic which were generated by additional FSI? Though the share of public transport in Mumbai is high compared to other metro cities but still city roads are congested.
We vertically creates new city but for commuting from one place to another place you have to come on roads. Today for 1.3 FSI, city roads are so congested that the average peak hour speed lies between 20 to 30 Kmph, after increasing FSI the situation will be worsen, hence to cater this situation we have to provide additional space for roads, do we have space for widening of city Roads?
Maximum city roads are already occupied by on street vehicle parking. Increasing FSI might help in creating additional space for on street vehicles but still we need capacity augmentation of road infrastructure, this requires enormous amount of funding.
Increasing FSI and creating additional space is not that simple as mentioned by Mr. Kshitij Batra and Mr. Reuben Abraham, you have to think every aspects of planning. Do we have such policy like Singapore for owning a new vehicle or controlling the growth of vehicle population?
There are many constrains that are directly related to FSI.
Mumbaikars need to limit unskilled people coming in from other parts of india
Pran Pavi ok you do the unskilled work which pays low, very risky to ones health etc.. Such anti poor attitude will only worsen the situation. Everyone need to develop.
Pran Pavi no Mumbai will be left if people from other places leave, infact it's the same for all cities, your hated will not lead to any solution.
AR98 best talent give me a break...these days engineering graduates are ready to petty jobs for small pay. Not all are born with silver spoon. And every one irrespective of region, religion or cast needs equal chance. Development doesn't include only GDP , it also includes human development index, go read about it. Such archaic mindset only that only people from my community must prosper is a result of divide and rule by the British and you are just following it.
