Antop Hill

Antop Hill, located in South Mumbai’s 400037 PIN code area, lies east of the Harbour Line railway and forms part of the city’s historic South Zone. The locality traces its name to Antoba, a Marathi landowner, which over time was anglicized to 'Antop'. Developed primarily in the late 1950s, the area is anchored by the Central Government Staff (CGS) Housing Colony, a planned residential enclave built to accommodate central government employees from departments such as Customs, Income Tax, Indian Navy, and Sales Tax. Situated between Kings Circle to the north and Wadala to the south, Antop Hill enjoys strategic connectivity via rail, road, and Mumbai’s first monorail. The Eastern Express Highway and Eastern Freeway provide swift access to eastern suburbs and South Mumbai, while Kings Circle Railway Station on the Harbour Line ensures seamless rail connectivity. The monorail, running from Chembur to Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk, further enhances multimodal transport options. Real estate in Antop Hill is a mix of government housing, private apartments, and emerging residential projects, with an average 2BHK price of ₹1.91 crore and a per sq. ft. rate of ₹30,523. Though primarily residential, the area also hosts commercial pockets and small-scale industries. Its proximity to employment hubs like Lower Parel, Wadala, and the upcoming Mumbai Trans Harbour Link makes it a sought-after yet evolving neighborhood in South Mumbai.
