You won't get Duplicate Marriage Certificate but will be able to get certified copy of the copy of the original which is in the record of the Marriage officer/registrar. Now you may call it duplicate or not it hardly matters but its validity for any & all purpose is same as the original certificate. The words duplicate may not appear on the top of the marriage certificate now issued to you but it will be confirmed & certified as true copy of the original so go & get it & use it for any purpose you want.

better way is go to mumbai your jurisdiction registrar office...contact any staff inside who will help you to get the certified copy of the marriage certificate..since you don't know the date , it will be bit more difficult for the staff to search..you might need at least need to know the name of the bride , bridegroom , caste , religion , year of marriage etc...you might end of paying at a good 4 digit amount before getting the ceritified copy..

Naiju Mathew  IS RIGHT AND I AGREE WITH THE VIEWS

Mr. Naiju Matthew I asked for a copy of my marriage certificate from my Sub Registrars office in Jodhpur and they said there is no procedure for obtaining it. It is only issued once. If I want a another one I will have to sign again and submit all the documents that I submitted while registering including witnesses. 

Is there some act, legal document, circular or goverment website that I can quote so that they may agree for issuing of a copy

This procedure is for Khar Road West Marriage Regestrar. Remember Bandra Counter has been transferred to Khar and is closed since 2013. Get a Rs 5 Court stamp from Bandra Court or other. Got to Khar Road West Marriage Bureau. Ask for Marathi printed Application, fill in Yourname , Bride + Groom + Date of Marriage. Pay Rs 25 for each xerox copy you need. You will not get original, just a copy with seal / stamp of Registrar. Collect it within a week.
