The Brihanmumbai Electricity Supply and Transport or BEST s double-decker buses have been an icon for Mumbai city. BEST has operated double-decker buses in Mumbai since 1937 and they have been an integral part of the city s public transport system. Now, in the BS6 era, these buses have become obsolete, and all the old BEST double-decker buses that are more than 15 years old will go out of commission and the city has decided to auction them. However, that doesn t mean Mumbai is going to lose one of its biggest icons. BEST has also announced that it would add 100 new double-decker buses with advanced features to its fleet by early 2021.
