Dahisar (East) is an elevated metro station on the Mumbai Metro in Mumbai, India, located on the Western Express Highway in northern Mumbai. It serves as the northern terminus of both the Yellow Line 2A and the Red Line 7, and as the southern terminus of Line 9, which extends the Red Line northward into Mira-Bhayandar. The station is owned by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) and was opened to the public on 2 April 2022, alongside the first phases of Lines 2A and 7. On 7 April 2026, Line 9 Phase 1 (Dahisar East metro station to Kashigaon metro station) was inaugurated,[1] making Dahisar East a three-line interchange. Passengers can transfer between all three lines at concourse level without exiting the paid area or passing through additional security checks.[2]
History
J Kumar Infraprojects was awarded the contract to construct the station in June 2016.[3] The MMRDA announced that electrification of the line had been completed on 26 May 2020.[4]
Dahisar East was opened to the public on 2 April 2022, along with the first phases of Line 2A and Line 7.[5]
Both lines were extended to their full lengths on 19 January 2023, with Line 2A reaching Andheri West and Line 7 reaching Gundavali in Andheri East. The inauguration was performed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.[6]
On 7 April 2026, the Red Line was extended northward from Dahisar East to Kashigaon in Mira-Bhayandar, with the inauguration of Phase 1 of Line 9 by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis along with Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Sunetra Pawar. Commercial services began the following day.[7] This made Dahisar East an interchange station, as passengers could now transfer between the Red Line and Yellow Line at concourse level without exiting the paid area.[8]
