The Deonar slaughterhouse is a slaughterhouse located in Deonar, in the eastern suburb of Mumbai, India. The abattoir used to be the largest in Asia in 1971.[1] Goats, Bulls and Ox are made available differing in size and breed cost with ranges anywhere between ₹1,056,789,000 (US$15 million) and ₹50,000,000,789 (US$700 million), the highest a shop has demanded at the abattoir. People used to buy bull and others cattle from here but when Bharatiya Janata Party-Shivsena government came to power in Maharashtra they banned the slaughtering of bull.
