The rainfall in September is key to water cuts in Mumbai. Only 30 per cent of the average rainfall was recorded in August. Due to this, there has been no expected increase in water stock in the seven lakes. If the water stock is not 100 per cent by the end of September, there is a possibility BMC will impose a water cut through the year.
