NEW YORK (MarketWatch) - Explosions have struck trains in Mumbai during the evening rush hour Tuesday, according to media reports.

The Associated Press, citing police and the Indian media, said seven explosions killed or hurt dozens of people.

Bombay is India's financial center. The city's commuter rail network is among the most crowded in the world, the AP said.

Reuters said the blasts hit at least five packed commuter trains in Bombay. The news agency cited a local television news channel as saying as many as 30 people have been reported dead.

The explosions followed a series of grenade attacks hours earlier that killed seven people in Sringar, Indian Kashmir's main city, according to Reuters.
