Gujarat were initially cruising with only 49 runs to get off 36 deliveries in their chase of 156, before the momentum swung Mumbai's way after the first of two rain delays.
With two overs to go, another rain interruption that lasted over 30 minutes brought down Gujarat's equation to 15 runs needed off just one over.
An eventful last over then left Gujarat with one run to get off the final ball, and a missed run-out chance from Mumbai saw Arshad Khan and Rahul Tewatia take their team through to a famous win.
The Gujarat bowlers did well in the first innings to restrict Mumbai to a total of 155-8 in their 20 overs with only Englishman Will Jacks striking 53 from 35 balls.
Shubman Gill (43), Jos Buttler (30) and Sherfane Rutherford (28) had put Gujarat in control of the run-chase but they then lost their way in the closing stages before sealing the win.
It was an eighth victory in 11 league matches for Gill's charges and they look likely to finish in the playoffs while Mumbai are fourth in the standings.
