Morphology
This is a playful compound combining 'garage' (a place to store cars) with 'mahal' (palace/grand building), so a learner who knows both constituents can infer it denotes a very large or luxurious garage. Although informal and creative, the meaning is compositionally derived from the parts and is therefore immediately understandable.
Etymology
Garage Mahal may come from joining garage and Mahal, named after the famous Taj Mahal, to imagine a garage as grand as a palace. That's why it means 'a very large or fancy garage'.
