Bengaluru’s upcoming Ibbaluru Metro station will be renamed InMobi Ibbaluru Metro Station<\/strong> after the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) signed a Rs 65 crore agreement with technology company InMobi.

The partnership is part of BMRCL’s efforts to generate revenue beyond passenger fares while encouraging private-sector participation in the development of Bengaluru’s public transport infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

InMobi Secures Naming Rights for 30 Years<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the agreement, InMobi has secured naming rights for Ibbaluru Metro station for a period of 30 years. The total contractual commitment is Rs 65 crore, excluding Goods and Services Tax (GST).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed on November 3, 2026, between BMRCL and InMobi. The station will officially carry the name InMobi Ibbaluru Metro Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BMRCL Managing Director P C Jaffer said the partnership would support metro infrastructure development and strengthen the corporation’s non-fare revenue initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

InMobi founder and CEO Naveen Tewari said the agreement reflected the company’s commitment to Bengaluru, the city where it began its journey and developed into a global technology business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ibbaluru Station to Connect Blue and Red Metro Lines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ibbaluru Metro station is being developed along Bengaluru’s Outer Ring Road (ORR) Metro corridor, which forms part of the Blue Line under Phase 2A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The station is planned as an interchange between the Blue and Red Metro lines. Once the relevant corridors become operational, commuters will be able to switch between the two routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The location is particularly significant because the Outer Ring Road is one of Bengaluru’s major technology and employment hubs. Several IT companies and corporate offices operate along this stretch, attracting thousands of employees every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The upcoming interchange is expected to improve access to these employment centres and provide commuters with an alternative to road transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

InMobi’s agreement follows similar corporate naming-rights partnerships already established along the Outer Ring Road Metro corridor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BMRCL has entered into naming-rights agreements with three other corporate groups:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
