Mohan Estate Metro Station
Violet Line · South East Delhi, Delhi
About Mohan Estate metro station
After waiting for its safety clearance, Mohan Estate finally opened on 14 January 2011 as part of the Sarita Vihar – Badarpur section of what is now the Violet Line. The elevated station has side platforms and sits between Sarita Vihar and Tughlakabad Station, about two and three minutes away respectively.
It takes its name from Mohan Estate, an industrial and financial area that the station sits close to. DMRC’s own description goes no further than calling it one of the network’s elevated stations. The two gates are signed for Haldiram’s (Gate No. 1) and the DMRC staff quarters (Gate No. 2).
First and last metro at Mohan Estate
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.
