Location

Pattandur Agrahara is an elevated metro station on the East-West corridor of the Purple Line of Namma Metro in Bengaluru, India. The Vivanta Bengaluru Hotel and some locations like ITPL, Ascendes Park Square Mall, Alfred Herbert India Ltd. and many more, are situated near this station.[1][2][3] The station also has an eatery on the concourse level named Millets Cafe.

The Whitefield - Krishnarajapura trial runs were successfully conducted from 25 October 2022 for a month.[4] This metro station was inaugurated on March 25, 2023 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and was opened to the public on March 26, 2023.[5][6][7][8][9]

In January 2026, the ITPB Metro Skywalk was inaugurated, providing direct connections to the Park Square Mall and to ITPL from the metro station through overhead walkways, circumventing the need to cross any roads. An elevator is provided for easier transit between the ground and the concourse.

It is the terminating station for the short-loop trains on the Purple Line that run between Pattandur Agrahara and Mysuru Road, and between Pattandur Agrahara and Majestic. The Pattandur Agrahara-Mysuru Road loop runs in the evening, between 4 pm and 8 pm (approximately), and its short-loop trains run with an average interval of five minutes. The Pattandur Agrahara-Majestic trains run at specified timings exclusively in the morning.[10]
