As Mumbai deals with a 10 per cent water cut, the civic administration is expecting the arrival of the South West Monsoon within a week, which will resolve the water supply issue. At present, Mumbai's seven lakes have 11.78 per cent water stock, or 170,540 million litres in total, against a capacity of 1447,363 million litres. In comparison, on the same day last year, the consolidated water stock stood at 9.5 per cent (137,513 million litres).

What IMD says…

According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the South West Monsoon is likely to arrive in Mumbai by June 15. IMD has indicated a weak monsoon for the city, with up to 90 per cent of the average rainfall.
