Will it connect at Mumbai airport?

Yes. The eSIM activates automatically at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International, at both the T2 international and T1 domestic terminals, so you can arrange your pickup or pre-booked cab before stepping into the arrivals crowd.

How much data do I need for a few days in Mumbai?

Maps, ride-hailing and messaging are light, but streaming and sharing Marine Drive videos add up. Most travellers find 1–2 GB a day comfortable; heavy uploaders should size up. The same plan works India-wide if you travel on.

Good to know in Mumbai

Mumbai's suburban local trains are the city's lifeline but brutally crowded at rush hour — use data to plan journeys on the m-Indicator app and travel off-peak, keeping your phone zipped safely away in the crush.

Two simple ways to buy

Mumbai eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Mumbai eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Mumbai — you can always top up or switch on your next trip.

Traveller streaming and browsing freely on an unlimited-data travel eSIM

Unlimited plans

High-speed data, nothing to count

Priced per day — the longer you stay, the better the daily rate. Ideal for streaming, hotspot and longer trips where you'd rather not watch a data meter. A fair-use policy keeps speeds fast for everyone; see each plan for the detail.

Best for streaming, video calls & hotspot
Great for longer or open-ended trips
One price per day — no GB anxiety

By-the-GB plans

3GB10GB20GB

A set bundle, brilliant value

A fixed data allowance (say 3 GB or 10 GB) valid for your travel days. The best-value pick for lighter trips built around maps, messaging and a bit of browsing. Running low? Top up in a couple of taps — nothing to reinstall.

How much data do you need in Mumbai?

A rough, honest guide to sizing your Mumbai eSIM so you're not guessing. Most travellers in Mumbai are comfortable on 3–5 GB a week — heavy streamers just go Unlimited.

Mumbai eSIM: your local data guide.

Mumbai moves fast, and so should your phone. A Mumbai eSIM means you can catch the Elephanta ferry from the Gateway of India, order a cab through the Bandra backstreets, and check times for the packed suburban trains, all without hunting for a tourist SIM. From Marine Drive sunsets to late-night street food on Mohammed Ali Road, data keeps the maximum city at your fingertips.

One eSIM for Mumbai and all of India. It's the national India eSIM — from $7.28/day with unlimited data, working the same in Mumbai as it does the moment you leave it.

Landing at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM)?

Install the QR at home, then switch the eSIM on as you taxi in — you're online before you reach the arrivals hall.

On the ground

Where you'll lean on data in Mumbai.

Colaba & Gateway of India

Book Elephanta ferry tickets, read up on the Taj Mahal Palace hotel's history, and navigate the Causeway's stalls with maps in hand.

Marine Drive

Data's handy for golden-hour photos along the Queen's Necklace and finding a table around Nariman Point after the walk.

Bandra

Ride-hailing and offline maps steer you through the leafy backstreets, the Bandstand promenade and past Bollywood-star bungalows.

Elephanta Island

The hour-long ferry has patchy signal, so download the cave-temple guide and your return-boat times before you sail.

The practical bit

Getting around Mumbai on your eSIM.

Apps you'll want online in Mumbai

Uber— App cabs across the city; live ETAs and cashless payment rely on data.
Ola— Books cabs and autos citywide; in-app fares and tracking use mobile data.
m-Indicator— Mumbai's essential local-train companion for timetables, platforms and route planning.
Rapido— Bike taxis to dodge Mumbai traffic; booking and tracking need data.

How long to stay in Mumbai

Visitors typically give Mumbai two to three days, enough for the Gateway of India, Colaba, Marine Drive, Bandra and an Elephanta Caves boat trip.

How much data for Mumbai

A balanced 3-5 GB suits most Mumbai trips — maps, ride-hailing, train apps and photo sharing — but if you stream on long local-train commutes or tether a laptop, choose Unlimited instead.

Coverage in Mumbai

Mumbai has dependable 4G and growing 5G across the island city, suburbs, airport and Western/Central railway lines, though speeds can crawl in crowded areas at rush hour and drop briefly in metro tunnels.

Peace of mind

Your Mumbai eSIM: data-only, zero bill shock.

Your Mumbai eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Mumbai, no swapping your real SIM out.

Keep your number & WhatsApp

The eSIM is data-only and runs alongside your home SIM. Your number, iMessage and WhatsApp keep working exactly as they do at home.

No roaming bills, ever

Turn data roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the eSIM. You pay once, up front — no overage, no metered surprises, no bill waiting when you land home.

One thing worth knowing

Because it's data-only, the eSIM can't receive bank verification (OTP) text codes — those still go to your home number. Keep it reachable on Wi-Fi calling, or use app-based codes.
