About Dhansa Bus Stand metro station
Dhansa Bus Stand is a terminus of the Grey Line.
The end of the Grey Line, Dhansa Bus Stand opened on 18 September 2021, one stop beyond Najafgarh. As the name says, it is connected with an existing bus station, and it was the first station in the Delhi Metro system to have an underground car park.
Grey Line trains run from here through Najafgarh to Dwarka-Kakrola at the other end of the line. The station has three gates, labelled for the fire station side, the MCD office and the Dhansa bus stop. DMRC lists two platforms: Platform 2 for trains towards Dwarka-Kakrola and Platform 1, where trains from the other end of the line arrive and terminate.

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.
