Every Super Corridor listing you’ll see this year mentions the metro. Almost none of them tell you which station, how far it actually is, or whether that station is running trains or still a line on a planning map. That gap matters more than it should, because “near the metro” has become one of those phrases real estate marketing uses the way “five-star” gets used for hotels — technically defensible, practically meaningless without a number attached.
So here is the number. As of late September 2026, the Yellow Line has two stations carrying the Super Corridor name, both of them running real trains, not renderings. Here is exactly where they sit on the line, what’s running today, and what’s still just a plan.
What’s actually running on the ground
The stretch that matters for anyone buying near Super Corridor opened as Priority Corridor 2 on 6 September 2026, and it isn’t just the two Super Corridor stations — it’s an eleven-station run that also passes through Bhawarshala Chauraha, MR 10 Road, ISBT, and on toward Vijay Nagar and Malviya Nagar Chauraha.
| # | Station | Status | Opened |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | Super Corridor 2 | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 7 | Super Corridor 1 | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 8 | Bhawarshala Chauraha | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 9 | MR 10 Road | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 10 | ISBT | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 11 | Chandragupta Chauraha | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 12 | Hira Nagar | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 13 | Bapat Chauraha | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 14 | Meghdoot Garden | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 15 | Vijay Nagar Chauraha | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 16 | Malviya Nagar Chauraha | Operational | 6 Sep 2026 |
| 17 | Mumtaj Bag Colony | Approved, not opened | Not confirmed |
Stations 1 through 5 — Devi Ahilya Bai Holkar Terminal through Veerangana Jhalkari Bai — opened earlier, on 31 May 2025, as the first priority corridor. Everything from station 18 onward, including Khajrana Square, Bengali Square, Palasia Square, Indore Railway Station and the airport itself, sits in the “approved or under construction” column with no confirmed opening date as of when we checked (Wikipedia: Yellow Line, Indore Metro). That “approved” status is worth sitting with for a second: it means the plan exists and funding is likely in place, not that a train will run there next year, or the year after.
What two open stations actually change for a plot buyer
Here’s the thing nobody selling you a plot near “the metro” will spell out: a station being open changes your actual commute today, not your imagined commute in five years. That’s a bigger deal than it sounds. Plenty of Indian growth corridors have been selling “metro-adjacent” plots against a station that’s still an approved line item in a budget document, and the price premium for that promise evaporates the moment the completion date slips, which it usually does.
Super Corridor isn’t in that position anymore, at least not for the two stations named after it. That’s a real, checkable difference — but it comes with three caveats that matter more than the headline:
- “Named after the area” isn’t the same as “walking distance from your plot.” Super Corridor 1 and 2 sit at specific points on a 12 km stretch. A plot two kilometres from either station is still, technically, in Super Corridor. Measure the actual distance from the specific plot you’re looking at, not the locality name.
- We haven’t published drive-time estimates for any Drushika project, and we’re not going to invent them here. If a project page or a sales pitch quotes you a specific minutes-to-metro figure, ask how it was measured and at what time of day — 9 am traffic and 2 pm traffic are not the same commute.
- “Approved” is not “operational.” Treat every station past number 17 as a future plan you’re betting on, not a present-day amenity you’re paying for. That distinction alone would have saved a lot of buyers in other Indian cities from overpaying for “upcoming metro” plots that took a decade longer than advertised.
The line as a whole, for context
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Planned length | 33.53 km, 29 stations, Devi Ahilya Bai Holkar Terminal to Airport |
| Operational today | 16.21 km, 16 stations |
| Approved, not yet open | 17.32 km |
| Daily ridership | More than 50,000, per Wikipedia |
Sixteen of twenty-nine stations running is a genuine milestone, not a rounding error — more than half the planned network is real today. It’s also a reminder that the remaining thirteen stations, including the ones that would connect Super Corridor to the older, denser parts of the city like Palasia and the railway station, are still ahead. How fast those get built will matter more to long-term appreciation than anything that’s already opened.
What to actually do with this information
- Find the plot on a map, then find the nearest operational station on the same map. Measure the distance yourself — don’t take a brochure’s word for it.
- Drive that distance at the time of day you’d actually be commuting, not at 11 am on a Sunday when the sales team offers to show you around.
- Treat any station beyond number 17 as a “might happen” factor in your decision, not a “will happen by X date” one.
- Cross-check this against the wider picture in our Super Corridor plots and prices guide, and if you’re comparing multiple projects, our project comparison is a reasonable next stop.
Questions we actually get asked
Which metro stations serve Super Corridor?
Two stations are named directly for the area: Super Corridor 2 and Super Corridor 1, numbers 6 and 7 on the Yellow Line. Both opened with Priority Corridor 2 on 6 September 2026. That naming is a little misleading on its own, though — a station called Super Corridor could sit at either end of a 12 km stretch, so the name tells you the line reaches the area, not that it reaches your specific plot.
How many Indore Metro stations are open as of late September 2026?
Sixteen of the line’s 29 planned stations are running, covering 16.21 km. Another 17.32 km is approved but not yet open, and everything past station 17 — Mumtaj Bag Colony onward — is listed as approved without a confirmed date. That distinction between “operational” and “approved” is doing a lot of quiet work in most Super Corridor marketing, and it is worth reading closely.
When did the metro actually reach Super Corridor?
Priority Corridor 2, which includes both Super Corridor stations, was inaugurated on 5 September 2026 and began regular passenger service the next day. That is a real, dated, checkable fact, which is more than most “upcoming metro” claims in Indian real estate can offer.
Will the metro reach Vijay Nagar and the railway station eventually?
Vijay Nagar Chauraha and Malviya Nagar Chauraha are already running on the current stretch. Palasia Square and Indore Railway Station sit further down the planned line as approved stations with no confirmed opening date as of this writing — worth checking again before you make a decision based on either one.
