you have to file the execution petition before the district court of Maharastra,as the Arbitration proceedings were held in Mumbai. The District court is the only court competent to execute the orders of the Arbitrator/ or to challenge the orders of the Arbitrator. In your case as the territorial jurisdiction is under Mumbai High court and as the court which has granted decree is the court competent to execute the same, you have to file EP in Mumbai only. You have to file a precept petition as the property is situated out of the territorial jurisdiction of the court.
