When CEOs of big companies choose to relocate to or make investments in India’s financial capital, they frequently choose areas like Worli and BKC as their preferred locations. The Bajaj Auto Chairman has relocated to one of Mumbai’s most affluent neighbourhoods, Malabar Hill, where he purchased a Rs 252 crore apartment.
