Stress
1000-1700 m3/person/year
Water availability is classified as Stress.
The official published classification is Stress for both 2025 and 2050.
- Before monsoon groundwater
- 2–5 metres below the ground surface
- After monsoon groundwater
- within 2 metres of the ground surface
- 2025 and 2050 availability
- Stress
What this assessment includes
Included in this result
- Groundwater: Before and after monsoon groundwater bands are available for 2023-24.
- Long-term availability: Both 2025 and 2050 published availability classifications are available.
Not included in this result
- Rainfall: Official rainfall context is not currently integrated into this JalWater result.
- Reservoir or supply context: Official reservoir or municipal-supply context is not currently integrated into this JalWater result.
- Water quality: Official water-quality evidence is not currently integrated into this JalWater result.
Scope
District-level evidence for Mumbai, Maharashtra. Reporting periods: 2023-24, 2025, 2050. Last checked 29 Jun 2026. Neighbourhood, building, borewell, tap-water, and current supply conditions may differ.
Confidence: Moderate
Moderate confidence. The displayed records match Mumbai, Maharashtra, and groundwater and long-term availability pairs are comparable within their published periods.
Confidence describes how well the evidence supports this result. It is not a safety, suitability, or city-quality rating.
Why this matters
The same official availability classification appears for both published periods. This does not establish a trend between them, so JalWater preserves the published bands without filling in the years between.
Groundwater depth does not show how much water is sustainably available, whether taps receive reliable supply, or whether the water is safe to drink.

2 to 5 mbgl0 to 2 mbglExact technical bands are shown as published in metres below ground level (mbgl). A lower depth means groundwater was recorded closer to the surface. JalWater does not convert ranges into point measurements, line charts, or trends.
The published range band is the same across these years. JalWater preserves the official published bands instead of inventing a false trend.
