Mumbai, Jan 20 (PTI) The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation on Monday said it has cancelled a tender for property development at Nariman Point, a premium business district in south Mumbai, on the request of Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

"Subsequent to RBI's request for this land parcel, the MMRC Board has approved to consider the proposal appropriately," the MMRC release stated.
