Forum Mall also known as Forum Courtyard is a shopping mall located in Bhowanipore, South Kolkata, India. It was initially conceived as an office tower. 80% of the foundation was complete before it was converted into a mall. [1] Currently it has a built-up area of 200,000 square feet, of which 125,000 square feet is the gross leasable (retail) area.[2] It was opened to the public with the sole intention of launching Shoppers' Stop in Kolkata for the first time, in 2003.[3] Its opening was credited with turning its neighbourhood from a quiet residential area into an upmarket shopping destination.[4] It has been noted for its excellent layout and signage.[5] The mall is constructed and owned by Rahul Saraf, Chairman of SAPL. The Mall also has a branch in Bhubaneswar named Forum Mart and has a new addition in Belur area of Howrah as Forum Rangoli Mall.

The tenants are diverse ranging from retail outlets to entertainment multiplex theatres to dining.[5] The mall offers paging services and a dedicated telephone exchange.[2] As of July 2003, the mall had parking space for 175 cars and planned to increase it to 700 cars in 18 months.[2]
