About Dwarka Sector 12 metro station
The City Centre Mall gives this stop its most obvious landmark: DMRC names Gate 2 after the mall and lists it at 0.0 km, in other words right at the station. Dwarka Sector 12 opened on 1 April 2006 as an elevated station with side platforms, between Dwarka Sector 11 and Dwarka Sector 13, and has not changed its name since.
Gate 1 opens on to the service road. Like the other stops in the Dwarka sectors, it sees trains bound for Noida Electronic City and for Vaishali on the same platform, since DMRC runs through services from Dwarka onto the Vaishali branch beyond Yamuna Bank. In the other direction every train ends at Dwarka Sector 21.

Departure times from this station on a weekday, as DMRC’s journey planner gives them (checked on Tuesday 20 October 2026; the planner takes no date). DMRC does not publish separate Saturday, Sunday or holiday times for each station, and on special days it announces changes in advance. A last train after midnight belongs to the previous evening’s service. “Not published” means DMRC’s own answer was inconsistent (arrival before departure), so we leave it out.
