IIMB or Indian Institute of Management Bengaluru is an upcoming elevated metro station on the North-South corridor of the Pink Line[1] of Namma Metro in Bengaluru, India. This metro station is located opposite to the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore and Fortis Hospital. It serves the nearby areas of Arekere, Bilekahalli, adjoining JP Nagar 5th Phase and Sahyadri Layout. This metro station is stated to become operational around March 2025.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
On March 2017, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) sought bids for building the IIMB metro station on the 7.5 km Kalena Agrahara - South Ramp section of the 21.25 km Pink Line of Namma Metro. This section comprises 5 stations, excluding Jayadeva Hospital, which was part of a joint venture between HCC - URC Constructions. Initially, Simplex Infrastructures won the tender in September 2017 but due to slow progress, their contract was terminated. [7] In July 2021, GR Infraprojects became the lowest bidder and was awarded the Rs 364.87 Crore contract for this section. They commenced the construction of this metro station as per the agreement.
