Shivajinagar Metro Station

Shivajinagar Metro Station — Pink Line, Namma Metro

Shivajinagar Metro Station is an underground station on the Pink Line of Namma Metro in Bengaluru, at Shivajinagar. The Pink Line runs 21.25 km from Kalena Agrahara in the south to Nagawara in the north across 18 stations — six elevated along Bannerghatta Road and twelve underground through central Bengaluru, the longest underground stretch on the network. The line has not yet opened to passengers.

Shivajinagar is an underground station beneath one of the busiest and oldest commercial districts in Bengaluru. The area is a major bus interchange and shopping destination, and the station will give it direct rail access for the first time. It is one stop north of the Mahatma Gandhi Road interchange with the Purple Line.

Shivajinagar Metro Station Opening Date

This station is on the underground Phase 2 section — 13.76 km and twelve stations from Dairy Circle to Nagawara, the longest underground stretch on the Namma Metro network. BMRCL is targeting December 2026. Tunnelling finished in December 2024; track, signalling and platform screen door installation followed, and platform screen doors have been tested at Mahatma Gandhi Road. Treat December 2026 as a target rather than a commitment — Phase 1 has already slipped four times.

Expected opening: December 2026, target only (Phase 2, underground). Status verified 31 August 2026.
