Belapur Office started functioning from Belapur with effect from January 15, 2001. Before the opening of the office at Belapur, Navi Mumbai, it functioned as an extended arm of Mumbai Regional Office from Byculla Office Building opposite to the Mumbai Central Railway Station. With the shifting of the wholesale markets coming under the Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee from Byculla to Vashi and the development of Belapur as a Central Business District, the need for a separate unit of RBI in Belapur was felt. Hence, the functions that were being carried out from Byculla Office, except the estate office and Public Debt Office, were shifted to Belapur.

Currently, Belapur Office caters to the needs of the public through the Issue Department, the Banking Department and the Consumer Education and Protection Cell (CEPC). Belapur Office also houses the Zonal Training Centre for the Western Zone which takes care of the training needs of the base-level staff of RBI.
