2. Delhi (4) – Situated in the plains at a moderate elevation, so pressure is slightly lower than Mumbai.

3. Shimla (1) – A hill station at a high altitude, so it has lower pressure than both Mumbai and Delhi.

4. Gangtok (2) – Located at a higher elevation than Shimla, thus has the lowest atmospheric pressure among the four.
