Location

Prestige Bellandur (formerly known as Bellandur) is an important upcoming elevated metro station on the North-South corridor of the Blue Line[1] of Namma Metro in Bangalore, India. This metro station serves mainly the Bellandur suburban area, which comprises Bellandur Lake in addition to many technology firms such as Intel, RMZ Ecoworld and Embassy TechVillage.This metro station is slated to become operational December 2026 instead of June 2026.[2][3][4][5][6]

History

In December 2019, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) invited bids for the construction of the Bellandur metro station, part of the 9.859 km Reach 2A – Package 1 section (Central Silk Board - Kodibeesanahalli) of the 18.236 km Blue Line of Namma Metro. On 13 October 2020, Afcons Infrastructure was chosen as the lowest bidder for this segment, with their proposal closely matching the initial cost estimates. [7] As a result, the contract was awarded to the company, which led to the beginning of the construction works of this metro station as per the agreed terms.

Naming rights

In February 2026, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited signed a station sponsorship deal for this upcoming metro station as part of Phase 2A of Blue Line. As part of this scheme, Prestige Group agreed to invest around ₹120 crore to facilitate the construction process and enhance passenger facilities.

In this deal, the company was granted the right to use the name of the station for 30 years, and the station will be named Prestige Bellandur Metro Station. The deal also provides limited commercial and advertising space in the station and the possibility of developing connectivity with nearby business development sites.

This is part of BMRCL’s efforts to develop metro infrastructure and passenger experience through public-private partnerships along the Outer Ring Road corridor. [8][9][10]
