List of tallest buildings in India

This article ranks the tallest buildings in India that are at least 190 metres (623 ft) in height, based on standard height measurements as defined by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. These measurements include spires and other architectural elements but exclude antenna masts. Only habitable buildings are included in this list, thereby excluding structures such as radio masts and towers, observation towers, temples, chimneys, and other non-habitable architectural structures.^[1]

The development of initial skyscrapers in India began with the completion of the LIC Building in Chennai in 1959. Comprising 12 floors, it was the first skyscraper in the country and remained the tallest building in India until 1961, when it was surpassed by the 25-storey Usha Kiran Building in Mumbai.^[2] Since then, numerous taller buildings have been constructed across various cities.

As of May 2025, Palais Royale in Mumbai, which structurally topped out at 320 metres in 2018 but remains under construction, is the tallest building in the country. Lokhandwala Minerva, also located in Mumbai, is the tallest completed building in India,^[3] standing at 301 metres (988 feet) and 78 floors.^[4][5] Several taller buildings are either under construction^[6] or currently on hold.^[7]

Mumbai leads the country in vertical development, with over 250 skyscrapers^[8] and approximately 5,600^[9][10][11] high-rise buildings within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. In southern India, Hyderabad has seen a significant construction boom in recent years, with 42 completed or topped out skyscrapers and over 120 skyscrapers under construction.^[12] The Delhi National Capital Region (NCR) has also experienced rapid urban development in its suburbs over the past two decades, featuring 28 skyscrapers^[13][14] and around 5,200 high-rise buildings.^{[15][16][17][18][19][20]} Kolkata has 16 existing skyscrapers^[21] and around 1,000^[22][23] high-rise buildings. Other major cities with a notable presence of high-rise developments include Bengaluru, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Pune, Kochi, Mangaluru, Surat, and GIFT City.

This list includes buildings that have been completed or have topped out. Architectural height is used; therefore masts and other elements are discounted in height measurement. This includes spires and architectural details, but does not include antenna masts. The buildings in this list are above 190 metres (623 ft).

This list includes cities in India with completed or topped-out buildings taller than 100 metres (328 ft) or 25 floors.
