Location

Delta Electronics Bommasandra[1] (formerly called Bommasandra) is an elevated terminal metro station on the Yellow Line of the Namma Metro serving the industrial area of Bommasandra and the Heelalige railway station.

History

In December 2016, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) issued a call for bids to construct the Bommasandra 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.[2] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements.

Taiwanese company Delta Electronics signed an agreement with BMRCL for naming the metro station after their company and registering its rights for 30 years. [3]

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.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10] The opening was delayed from May 2025 as previously announced by the Namma Metro managing director Maheshwar Rao.[11][12][13]

Naming rights

In late 2024, the BMRCL entered into a 30-year naming-rights agreement under which Delta Electronics acquired the right to attach its name to the station, formerly known simply as Bommasandra. The agreement was reported to be worth approximately ₹65 crore for the 30-year term. It is the third corporate naming-rights agreement on the Yellow Line, following the Infosys Foundation's agreement for Konappana Agrahara metro station and the Biocon Foundation's agreement for Biocon Hebbagodi metro station.[14]
