Location

Infosys Foundation Konappana Agrahara (formerly called as Konappana Agrahara), is an elevated metro station on the North-South corridor of the Yellow Line of Namma Metro in Bengaluru, India.

History

In December 2016, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) issued a call for bids to construct the Electronic City 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. ^[1] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements. Infosys Foundation contributed ₹115 crore (US$14 million) for this station, including ₹100 crore (US$12 million) for station construction and ₹15 crore (US$1.8 million) for installation of half-height platform screen doors. ^[2]

The Yellow Line began operations from 10 August 2025 and has been officially inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, with four trainsets which are ready for operations after arriving from Titagarh Rail Systems in Kolkata. ^{[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]} The opening was delayed from May 2025 as previously announced by the Namma Metro Managing Director, Maheshwar Rao. ^{[10] [11] [12]}
