The 17th edition of the Cerebration Business Quiz, organised by BusinessLine in association with the Union Bank of India, will be held in Mumbai on September 7. The Mumbai regional round will be held in the forenoon, followed by the grand finals in the afternoon in which winners of the six regional rounds will battle it out for the top honours. The winner takes home a prize money of ₹75,000.

The sixth round, after five earlier rounds held at Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kochi and Delhi, will take place at 10 am at Hotel Sahara Star, Ville Parle.
