Maharashtra's urban pockets including assembly constituencies in Mumbai reported low voter turnout, despite Mumbai being the biggest city in the state and the country's financial and entertainment hub. The turnout this time is only 1 per cent higher than in 2019, which was 48.4 per cent. 
Few people were seen at many booths in several constituencies of Mumbai. Urban voter apathy has been a challenge for the Election Commission, which frequently ran campaigns to encourage people to come out in large numbers and vote. 

Mumbai city district and Mumbai suburban district recorded 40.89 per cent and 39.34 per cent turnout, respectively. These are lower than the turnout above 60 per cent in the last assembly election.
