Opened on 11 November 2006, Indraprastha is an elevated stop on the Blue Line between Supreme Court and Yamuna Bank. The next stop, Yamuna Bank, is where the route divides between Noida Electronic City and Vaishali.

DMRC gives no particular description of the station. Its two platforms are labelled for both destinations: Platform 1 for Noida Electronic City and Vaishali, Platform 2 for Dwarka Sector 21. Through trains between Dwarka and Vaishali exist, so travellers for Vaishali do not always have to change at Yamuna Bank. By train, Supreme Court is a little under two minutes away and Yamuna Bank three.

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.
