Delta Electronics - Bommasandra[1] (formerly known as Bommasandra) is the upcoming elevated southern-east terminal metro station on the Yellow Line of the Namma Metro serving the Bommasandra neighbourhood in Bengaluru with its industrial area and Heelalige railway station connected in this area. The station was named after a renowned electronics company located nearby after an agreement with BMRCL.

As per latest reports, the Yellow Line is slated to be operational between 2nd & 4th weeks of January 2025[2] due to lack of train sets which are needed for commencement of commercial operations.

History

[edit]

In December 2016, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) issued a call for bids to construct the Bommasandra metro station along the 6.418 km Reach 5 – Package 1 section (Bommasandra - Hosa Road) of the 18.825 km Yellow Line of Namma Metro. On 25 March 2017, ITD-ITD Cementation JV was selected as the lowest bidder for this stretch, with their bid closely aligning with the original cost estimates.[3] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements.

A Taiwanese Company Delta Electronics had signed an agreement with BMRCL for this metro station for naming this metro after their company and registering its rights for 30 years subject to the approval from the State Government. [4]
