Kalena Agrahara (formerly known as Gottigere) is an upcoming elevated southern terminal metro station on the North-South corridor of the Pink Line of Namma Metro in Bengaluru, India. This metro station serves residential properties and a few other locations including Prestige Elysian, Holy Spirit School (ICSE), Doddakammanahalli suburban area and Decathlon (Bannerghatta Road).
As per the latest updates, this metro station, under the first phase, covering a total distance of 7.5 km elevated stretch (Kalena Agrahara - Tavarekere), is expected to be operational around Mid-October 2026 instead of December 2025.
History In March 2017, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) sought bids for building the Kalena Agrahara metro station on the 7.5 km Kalena Agrahara - South Ramp section of the 21.25 km Pink Line of Namma Metro. This section comprises 5 stations, excluding Jayadeva Hospital, which was part of a joint venture between HCC - URC Constructions. Initially, Simplex Infrastructures won the tender in September 2017 but due to slow progress, their contract was terminated. In July 2021, GR Infraprojects became the lowest bidder and was awarded the Rs 364.87 Crore contract for this section. They commenced the construction of this metro station as per the agreement.
