Mumbai Metro Map 2026: Lines, Tickets & Prices

Mumbai Metro Map 2026: Key Facts at a Glance

• As of 23 July 2026 you can ride Lines 1, 2A, 3 and 7, plus only Phase 1 of Lines 2B and 9.
• Fares depend on the operator: Lines 2A and 7 cost ₹10 to ₹80, about $0.10 to $0.83, and Line 3 costs ₹10 to ₹70, about $0.10 to $0.73.
• The first trains leave between 05:30 and 05:55, and the published last departures fall between 22:30 and 23:50, depending on the line and direction.
• Line 3 reaches both CSMIA terminals, each through its own station and an approximately three-minute walk to the terminal.
• The metro does not run around the clock: the published regular schedules provide no 24-hour service.

Current Mumbai Metro service updates

At CSMI-Airport-T2, Gate B1 has been closed until further notice since 11 April 2026. Gates A1 and A2 remain open, and A1 connects to Terminal Parking Level 6 by footbridge. Check the airport access notice before travelling.

The Mumbai Metro Map brings several separately operated lines into one visitor guide. Mumbai Metro One Private Limited runs Line 1, Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Limited runs Lines 2A, 7 and the open phases of 2B and 9, while Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Limited runs Line 3. Mumbai Suburban Railway, Mumbai Monorail and Navi Mumbai Metro are separate systems.

Mumbai’s 33.5 km Aqua Line is the city’s first and only fully underground metro line, and its completion changed how visitors can cross central and southern Mumbai. The operational network also includes elevated corridors, but it does not have one operator or one fare structure.

As of 23 July 2026, passenger service covers Lines 1, 2A, 3 and 7 plus only Phase 1 of Lines 2B and 9.

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority, known as MMRDA, develops and oversees metro projects. It is not the operator of every line. Any Mumbai Metro route map therefore needs a date and operator label to prevent planned corridors from looking open.

The operational-status table is current to 23 July 2026. No combined network length, station total or ridership figure is stated because official sources use different dates and scopes, while Lines 7 and 9 operate as an integrated corridor.

Mumbai’s Metro Lines and Operators at a Glance

• Line 1, Blue Line: Versova ↔ Ghatkopar, operated by Mumbai Metro One Private Limited, or MMOPL. It opened on 8 June 2014 and has 12 stations over 11.4 km. The operator’s 2024-25 annual report recorded 1.1 billion cumulative passenger journeys by 30 April 2025.
• Line 2A, Yellow Line: Andheri West ↔ Dahisar East, operated separately by Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Limited, or MMMOCL. The 18.6 km line has 17 stations and has been fully open since 19 January 2023.
• Line 7 and Line 9, Red Line: MMMOCL operates the integrated Gundavali ↔ Kashigaon service. Line 9 Phase 1, from Dahisar East to Kashigaon, comprises four stations and began regular service on 8 April 2026.
• Line 2B, Yellow Line: Only Phase 1 from Mandale ↔ Diamond Garden is open. The five-station, 5.4 km section began regular service on 8 April 2026 under MMMOCL.
• Line 3, Aqua Line: Aarey JVLR ↔ Cuffe Parade, operated by Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Limited, or MMRC and MMRCL. The complete 33.5 km corridor has 27 stations.

Mumbai’s Metro Line 3: What Changed in 2026?

The Aqua Line has operated end to end from Aarey JVLR to Cuffe Parade since 8 October 2025. Its 27 stations include 26 underground stations and one above-ground station, giving visitors a direct rail corridor through the airport area, BKC and South Mumbai.

Line 3 opened in three stages. Aarey JVLR to BKC entered passenger service on 7 October 2024. BKC to Acharya Atre Chowk followed on 10 May 2025, before the final section to Cuffe Parade completed the corridor.

The latest official MMRC image shows all 27 stations, including the two airport stations. It is a Line 3 diagram, not a network-wide map for lines operated by MMOPL and MMMOCL.

How to Read the Mumbai Metro Map Coverage

The embedded diagram is the official Maha Mumbai Metro Network Diagram. It shows Lines 1 to 14, the Monorail, Navi Mumbai Metro and Suburban Railway, together with an operational-status table. Because that table reflects a 2025 snapshot, it still lists the Line 2B and Line 9 Phase 1 sections and the full Line 3 corridor differently from their current status, so mixed open, under-construction and planned corridors appear on one image. In particular, it shows the complete planned alignments of Lines 2B and 9 even though only Phase 1 of each line carries passengers as of 23 July 2026.

Use the dated operational table rather than line colours alone when planning a trip. Each row distinguishes a passenger-open section from the longer planned corridor. This is especially important for Lines 2B and 9, whose complete alignments extend beyond the Phase 1 sections currently available to passengers.

Mumbai Metro, Local Trains, Monorail or Navi Mumbai Metro?

Mumbai Suburban Railway is a separate Indian Railways network operated by Western Railway and Central Railway. Its services are not metro lines, even when a journey combines a Local train and metro connection.

Mumbai Monorail is another separate system. Its 20 km route with 17 stations has had passenger operations suspended until further notice since 20 September 2025, so it is not a current metro alternative.

Navi Mumbai Metro is a separate CIDCO system, with Line 1 operation and maintenance handled by Maha Metro. Its 11.1 km Belapur to Pendhar Line 1 has run since 17 November 2023, but it does not directly serve Navi Mumbai International Airport.

Visitors should choose the rail system by destination rather than force every journey onto the metro. Line 3 now provides the strongest direct coverage of the airport, BKC and several central or southern landmarks, while other places still need a road connection or a separate Local train.

The Mumbai Metro Destinations table follows MMRC’s official destination data. Walking estimates are approximate and should be treated as practical orientation, especially in heat, heavy rain or when travelling with luggage.

How Do You Reach Mumbai Airport by Metro?

Line 3 serves both terminals of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, or CSMIA. Terminal 1 uses CSMI-Airport-T1 station, where Gate A1 is open and the official walking estimate is approximately three minutes.

Terminal 2 uses CSMI-Airport-T2 station. Gate A1 connects by footbridge to Terminal Parking Level 6, while Gate A2 is near Sahar Police Station. Gate B1 has been closed until further notice since 11 April 2026.

MMRC’s nearby-places data also estimates approximately three minutes on foot between the T2 station access and the terminal. It does not provide a usable airport-to-centre train time, so this guide does not publish a zero-minute or invented city journey.

Use the two named Line 3 stations for terminal access.

The Gateway of India and Mumbai waterfront, reached from the wider visitor transport network.

There is no single fare table for every line. MMOPL manages Line 1 products, MMMOCL publishes fares and passes for Lines 2A and 7, and MMRC sets Line 3 fares.

All amounts below are current to 23 July 2026. Approximate dollar values use the Federal Reserve reference rate from 17 July 2026 of ₹96.28 per $1.

Line 1 offers paper QR, Mobile QR, Smart Card, NCMC and Trip Pass products. Its 45-trip and unlimited Trip Passes are valid for 30 days on one fixed origin and destination combination. An up-to-date static fare ladder was not available from the official calculator.

MMMOCL also offers a Store Value Pass with a 5 percent discount from Monday to Saturday and 10 percent on Sundays and national holidays. Its Tourist Pass costs ₹80, approximately $0.83, for one day or ₹200, approximately $2.08, for three days. Mumbai One, WhatsApp, Mumbai One Card and NCMC are available channels, with Uber and ONDC added for QR tickets.

Mumbai One is the current shared app name. The service covers multiple transport operators and supports return journeys for Line 1 and Line 3, while its iOS history also names Lines 2A and 7.

For Line 3, MetroConnect3 is the official MMRC app. Line 3 also offers a Tourist Trip Pass for ₹280, approximately $2.91, for one day or ₹700, approximately $7.27, for three days. Line 3 accepts NCMC, paper QR and mobile QR, but this guide does not claim cross-line NCMC compatibility because that specific 2026 scope was not directly verified.

Operating hours and frequencies vary by operator, line and direction. None of the regular published schedules establishes 24-hour service, and festival extensions should not be mistaken for the normal timetable.

• Line 1: First trains leave Versova and Ghatkopar at 05:30. The last departure is 23:25 from Versova and 23:50 from Ghatkopar. Monday to Friday trains run about every 3.5 minutes at peak times and up to every 7 minutes off peak.
• Line 2A: The first train is at 05:50. Last services fall between 22:35 and 23:00, although the official notice does not assign those times to individual termini. Frequencies are 6 minutes at peak and 8 to 10 minutes off peak.

• Integrated Lines 7 and 9: The Gundavali to Kashigaon service begins at 05:50 and has a last train at 23:00. Trains run every 5 minutes 50 seconds at peak and every 8 to 10 minutes off peak.
• Line 3: MMRC publishes a first train from Aarey JVLR at 05:55 and a last train from Cuffe Parade at 22:30. It does not publish a currently verified frequency or complete weekend timetable in the source set used here.

Line 1 follows a demand-adjusted timetable on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays without a fixed current frequency on the operator page. The 2026 MMMOCL schedule lists different trip totals for weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays on Line 2A and Lines 7/9.

Construction progress, a trial run, regulatory preparation and passenger service are different milestones. Only the first phases of Lines 2B and 9 entered regular service on 8 April 2026, while their remaining corridors were still in development.

A project-status annex to a Lok Sabha reply recorded the complete planned Line 2B corridor at 23.6 km and 92 percent civil progress on 28 February 2026. Only Mandale to Diamond Garden is in the operational status.

The combined Line 9 and 7A project stood at 75.3 percent civil progress on 28 February 2026. Passenger service covers only Line 9 Phase 1 to Kashigaon. Line 7A was not open and must not be presented as an airport connection.

Lines 4, 4A, 5 Phase 1 and 6 stood at 90.5, 96.5, 97.6 and 86.9 percent civil progress respectively on 28 February 2026. A Line 4A trial run took place on 22 September 2025, but no passenger opening was verified.

No unverified opening year is assigned to these projects, and planned sections are kept outside the operational line list.

Fun Fact: Mumbai’s Aqua Line was bored with 17 tunnel-boring machines, and MMRC recorded its 42nd and final breakthrough in November 2022 after completing 55 km of twin tunnels. This included 484 metres below the active Mithi River channel. The 55 km figure describes cumulative twin-tunnel construction, not passenger route length.

Use the dated operational tables on this page before choosing a line. For destinations outside practical metro walking range, combine the metro with a Local train, bus, auto-rickshaw or taxi instead of assuming every master-plan corridor is open.
