More Details.....
IIT Bombay is located at Powai,
which is an eastern suburb in the North-Eastern part of
Mumbai.
Mumbai
is in the form of a long narrow island, almost a peninsula,
thrusting south wards into the Arabian Sea. It can be broadly
divided into four zones.
South Bombay (Colaba,
CST,Fort, Chruchgate, Nariman Point etc.) Central
Bombay (Dadar, Bombay Central, Worli etc) The Western
suburbs (Bandra, Juhu, Andheri, Borivali etc) The
Eastern Suburbs(Kurla, Chembur, Ghatkopar, Mulund, Kanjur
Marg, Vikhroli etc.)
There is also New Bombay
(Vashi, Turbhe etc.) across Thane Creek on the
mainland.
Public
Transport Mumbai has one of the most efficient and
reliable public transport network. One can travel by
Autorickshaws / Taxis to reach IIT from the nearest
stations(Autorickshaws, however do not go further south than
Sion and Bandra). For longer distance, you can use either the
BEST Bus Network or the Mumbai Local
train System.
Suburban Railway
Transport

train will have to get down at Kanjur Marg, Vikhroli or
Ghatkopar which are the nearest stations from IITB. If you are

get down at Andheri, Bandra, Goregoan or Malad. We give below

Kurla |
|
There is a terminus at Kurla where some
Central as well as Western Railway Trains terminate. There is
no convenient bus route from Kurla terminus. An autorickshaw
is the best option. However it would be more economical to
take a suburban train from kurla to Kanjur Marg and then take
an Auto.
