Mumbai's count of recuperated cases rose to 11,13,829 after 330 more patients recovered from the respiratory illness, leaving the metropolis with 6,269 active cases, said the BMC.

The new Covid-19 cases were detected after 8,772 tests were conducted in the last 24 hours, pushing their cumulative count to 1,80,25,713.

Significantly, the active Covid-19 tally has crossed the 6,000-mark due to widening gap between the new and recovered cases.

Last week, the financial capital had recorded more than 1,000 daily cases on two straight days.

The city reported 240 more cases as compared to Monday, when it added 592 patients, but no death linked to the viral infection. For the fourth consecutive day, the metropolis has logged less than 1,000 coronavirus infections.

With these additions, the overall Covid-19 tally rose to 11,39,773, while the death toll increased to 19,675.
