Indian designers like Manish Malhotra, Abu Jani-Sandeep Khosla, Rahul Mishra, Falguni and Shane Peacock, and Ri By Ritu Kumar also have their stores there.

“Our envisioning of the Jio World Plaza is aimed at bringing the best global brands to India as well as highlighting the prowess and craftsmanship of top Indian brands; and hence create a very unique retail experience," said Isha M Ambani, director, Reliance Industries.

Baggage drops and butler services

The mall, however, is not about shopping alone. It also has entertainment offerings which include a multiplex theatre and a well-curated gourmet food emporium with world-class restaurants. That’s a far cry from the food courts of most malls.

“Services like personal shopping assistance, VIP concierge, taxi-on-call, wheelchair services, hands-free shopping with baggage drop, butler service, and baby strollers amplify the Plaza's commitment to the consumer

To cater to the aesthetics of its audience with high-taste, the Plaza is suffused with art. With marble-clad floors and soaring vaulted ceilings, it also boasts of an artful play of soft lighting.

Its structure is inspired by the lotus flower and other elements of nature and is designed by a US-based team, the company says. The shopping concourse is punctuated with sculptural columns that act as a visual thread weaving design continuity into the fabric of the space.

“The Jio World Plaza is more than a retail destination; it's an embodiment of aesthetics, culture, and leisure," says Ambani.

The Plaza seamlessly integrates with the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, the Jio World Convention Centre and the Jio World Garden, making it an all-encompassing destination for visitors.
