Mukhi eventually joined Tata Steel in the local Jharkhand Football League and then joined the Jamshedpur FC B team.

Mukhi came on as a 71st-minute substitute for Jerry Mawihmingthanga and scored the equalizing goal for club ten minutes later to make it 1–1. The game soon ended 2–2 and Mukhi earned the ISL Emerging Player of the Match award. [4] [5]

On 20 November 2018, Mukhi was suspended by the AIFF for six months after admitting to age-fraud. [6] In 2018, Mukhi claimed to be 16 years old but was revealed to be 21 years old after supposedly becoming the youngest player in ISL history.
