The Yellow Line opened on 10 August 2025 and is Bengaluru's newest metro corridor: 16 elevated stations running south-east from Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road to Delta Electronics Bommasandra. It exists to serve the Electronic City and Bommasandra employment belt, which had no rail connection at all before it. It is also the least frequent line on the network — only seven trains were available at opening, giving a 10-minute gap between trains, and BMRCL has said this will fall to 5 minutes once the full fleet of 15 arrives.
The Yellow Line is a rapid transit metro line on the Namma Metro with 16 stations. It runs between Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road and Delta Electronics Bommasandra. Interchange stations: Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road. Use the planner to find the fastest route along or across this line, with travel time and fare. Times are estimates for planning — confirm with the operator before you travel.

Before You Travel
- Services start an hour later than the rest of the network, at 6:00 AM rather than 5:00 AM, so this is not the line to rely on for a very early journey.
- The last train from Bommasandra is 10:42 PM, but from Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road it is 11:55 PM — check which direction you need before planning a late trip.
- Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road is the only interchange today; for the Purple Line you must change twice, taking the Green Line on to Majestic.
- Central Silk Board and Jayadeva Hospital are built as interchanges for lines that have not opened yet, so today they are ordinary stops.
- Fares rose steeply on 9 February 2025, by more than 100% on some routes before the increase was capped at 71%, making this the costliest metro in India. The chart here is BMRCL's own, effective 14 February 2025.
- Tickets are contactless tokens for a single journey, QR tickets, or a rechargeable smart card; the National Common Mobility Card is issued free at stations in exchange for an old Varshik card, and cards top up through the Namma Metro app, Paytm and Amazon Pay.
- Children under three feet tall travel free, with no age test applied.
