Biocon Hebbagodi (formerly known as Hebbagodi) is an upcoming elevated metro station on the Yellow Line of the Namma Metro serving the Hebbagodi suburb.
In 2020, Biocon Group signed an agreement with the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Ltd to contribute ₹65 crore towards the construction of the metro station and donated land worth ₹30 crore for the project. Consequently, Biocon obtained the naming rights for the station for 30 years, and the station was renamed from Hebbagodi to Biocon Hebbagodi.[1][2]
This will also be the depot for all the Yellow Line Namma Metro trains for maintenance purposes. As per latest reports, the Yellow Line is stated to be operational around November 2024 due to the upcoming Indian general election which will occur during April–May 2024 and lots of trial runs along with more trainsets are required for commencement of operations.
