Toronto to Delhi is about 750 miles less and an Air Canada A340 can handle it currently without too much freight load, but that drives up costs, and Delhi is a lesser destination than Mumbai. India is not a wealthy country and operating high fare A340-500 nonstop services is not what Air India (or the Indian market as a whole) is about.
Well how can you verify that Delhi is a lesser destination than BOM as the YYZ-DEL flights are usually sold out and AC is not beginning to use the 345 on this route as well.
