Mumbai: Dubai has secured the eighth spot globally and the top position in the Middle East in the Global Power City Index (GPCI) 2024 for the second consecutive year. Mumbai also featured in the list, becoming the only Indian city in the rankings.

Mumbai was ranked at the 42nd spot after Cairo and Johannesburg respectively.
