Spread across a sprawling 7,50,000 square feet and encompassing four expansive levels, the mall currently boasts 24 luxury brand outlets, with plans to introduce an additional 42 between November and April, including several notable international debuts in the Indian market.

The Jio World Plaza, besides being a luxury shopping destination, stands out as an architectural marvel. US-based TVS and the Reliance team have designed the plaza which was inspired by the lotus flower and elements of nature.

Flagship stores of iconic brands like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Cartier, Dior, Bulgari, and Muji drew attention with their imposing presence, while international brands such as Valentino, Versace, and Tiffany & Co. are preparing to open their doors soon.

Store managers and staff noted a steady surge in footfall, with more and more visitors, including luxury aficionados and fashion enthusiasts, arriving by the hour.
