Mumbai Grid Failure: Kangana Ranaut to Amitabh Bachchan, Celebs React to Powercut with Funny One-liners

Multiple tripping of lines and transformer (Kalwa-Padghe and Khargar ICTs) supplying power to Mumbai system was reported with 360 MW supply in the city and suburbs being affected. An official said that restoration is under process and will take one hour. Power minister Nitin Raut reiterated the same. Amid the blackout, shares of Tata Power crashed by two percent. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has issued helpline numbers in case of emergencies.

The local trains under Western Railway — between Church Gate to Vasai railway station — have come to a standstill due to grid failure. The Central Railway (CR) that runs between CSMT and Kalyan has also been stopped. However, both National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) said that there is no stoppage in trading despite power failure.
