Construction has started on India Tower, a new 301 m high hotel, retail, and residential tower designed by US and Dubai-based Fox and Fowle (FXFOWLE) Architects.

Located in South Mumbai, India, and developed by D B Hospitality Private, it will be an "environmental responsible, high-end shopping, dining, and entertainment complex" that, according to the developer will set "a high standard for future architecture and design projects in the country."
