Book Oshiwara Crematorium

Oshiwara Crematorium (also called Oshiwara Electric Crematorium) is located in Jogeshwari West, Mumbai 400102, and is managed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). To book a slot, your family needs to submit the death certificate, hospital NOC (if the deceased passed away in a hospital), and identity proof of the next of kin at the crematorium office. Ayyappa Ambulance’s on-ground coordinator assists families with this process in real time, including communicating with crematorium staff to check slot availability before your vehicle departs — saving critical time during an already difficult situation.

The standard documents required include: (1) Death Certificate or Cause of Death Certificate issued by the attending doctor or hospital, (2) NOC from the hospital mortuary if the body was under hospital custody, (3) Aadhaar card or identity proof of the deceased, and (4) identity proof of the next of kin accompanying the body. Our team at Ayyappa Ambulance guides families through collecting these documents from hospital mortuaries — especially from Kokilaben, SevenHills, Nanavati, and Criticare Hospital, all located close to Oshiwara — before the ambulance is dispatched.

The cost depends on the distance, type of vehicle (refrigerated body transfer ambulance vs. standard), and time of day. Ayyappa Ambulance provides transparent fixed pricing with no hidden fees. As a general range, body transfer ambulances within Western Suburbs (e.g., Andheri to Oshiwara, Malad to Oshiwara) are priced affordably with no surge after midnight.

Oshiwara Crematorium typically operates during daytime and evening hours, with last rites performed based on administrative scheduling and slot availability. For urgent or late-night cases, families are advised to contact the crematorium directly or allow Ayyappa Ambulance’s coordinator to communicate with crematorium staff on your behalf. We are available 24/7 to assist and advise, even when official crematorium hours require morning-slot coordination.

For most locations in Andheri West, Andheri East, Goregaon West, Jogeshwari, and surrounding Western Suburbs, our typical dispatch-to-arrival time is 20 to 30 minutes. We maintain a dedicated ambulance stationed in the Andheri–Goregaon corridor precisely because Oshiwara Crematorium serves these densely populated areas. Traffic conditions on Link Road and SV Road are factored into our real-time dispatch.

Yes. We regularly handle long-distance mortal remains transfers within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, including from hospitals in Parel, Worli, Dadar, Thane, and Navi Mumbai to Oshiwara Crematorium. For longer distances, refrigerated body transfer vehicles are dispatched to preserve dignity. Travel time estimates and pricing are provided upfront before the vehicle moves.

Ayyappa Ambulance provides both. Our fleet is clearly divided — dedicated vehicles for mortal remains transfer and separate, fully sanitised medical ambulances for live patients requiring ICU-level care, BLS transport, or discharge transfers. The two are never mixed. Our medical ambulances serving the Oshiwara, Andheri, and Goregaon area are equipped with ALS equipment including ventilators, cardiac monitors, and defibrillators, staffed by certified EMTs and paramedics.

They refer to the same facility. “Oshiwara Electric Crematorium” is the commonly used full name, referencing its electrically operated furnaces. It is a BMC-managed facility located in Jogeshwari West and is one of the primary crematoriums serving the Western Suburbs of Mumbai. Ayyappa Ambulance is familiar with the facility’s layout, entry protocols, and staff coordination procedures.
