You can execute POA in Bombay and register it in Bombay

If you are living in abroad and would like to execute a SPOA to a close relative in India,  you may do it so and get it attested by an official of Indian embassy or notarized by a local notary public and send it to her who in turn can get it adjudicated by the registrar within her residential jurisdiction.

1. If there were to be two or more properties, atleast one in Mumbai and the other in Bangalore ( as per your narration, you own a Flat in Bangalore), then only you can register the POA  in Sub-Registrar's Office at Mumbai.

2.  Alternatively, since you are an OCI holder, you can get the POA countersigned by the Indian Consulate/Notarised in your place in US and send it to your sister-in-law in Bangalore, who in turn can arrange to get the POA adjudicated in the jurisdictional District Registrar's Office in Bangalore. By this way, you can avoid a trip to Bangalore.

Power of attorney registered in Mumbai would not work in Bangalore. 

You can send a notorised copy of the same after getting it notorised in USA ans your sister can get it registered in Bangalore or you can travel to Bangalore to get the registration done.

No need to visit Bangalore. Execute POA/GPA in U.S. get it attested by Indian Consulate or get it notarized. Send it to her in Bangalore, she will get it validated by DR and present it at the time of registration to Sub-Registrar. POA/GPA from abroad is not registered, it is validated by DR on presentation by attorney to him.
