Where to shop for gorgeous fabric in Chennai on a shoestring budget” saw a tremendous response from you all. As a follow-up, this is a list of best shops to buy fabric from the wholesale market in Mumbai.  The fabric can be used to make curtains, cushion covers, and dresses.

Changing the slip covers, cushion cover, and runners in the living room is my favorite trick to bring in that freshness without spending a ton of money. And, I’m often looking for either sale of quality fabrics or shops where I can source at relatively cheap prices. I will do a post on my favorite haunts in Bangalore, soon.

Today, we have Rushabh to navigate you through the vast fabric market in Mumbai. He hails from a family involved in the fabric business for decades so all this information is coming directly from the horse’s mouth. Over to Rushabh…

The fabric market in Mumbai is huge and scattered. Let me make your process easier and take you through some of the budget-friendly and the most amazing fabric stores in Mumbai.

Mumbai has multiple fabric markets out of which two of the most famous and prominent ones are Mangaldas Market and Mulji Jetha market. Both the markets span several lanes. Each lane, in turn, has multiple shops dedicated to different types of fabrics, but the best part of all is it has something for everyone.

Stores / Shops to buy quality fabric at affordable rates in Mumbai

  • Each fabric here is charged at the rate of per meter. Additional tip – you need to be a pro at bargaining and if you’re not, then get a friend along who will persevere until it fits your budget.
  • Don’t show your desperation for any particular fabric as it will make thing difficult for you to bargain. Don’t get driven in the crazy frenzy of the fabrics laid out there and it’s advisable to go through multiple shops before you narrow down on any one option.
  • Most stores opens around 11:00 am and close by 8:30 pm. The best time to visit the market is early in the day as it gets busier in the evening.
  • Most shops accept electronic transactions such as debit cards, credit cards and Paytm. But it’s always a best idea to carry cash as it comes in really handy and makes the process of shopping a lot more seamless.
