Find nearby Namma Metro stations & check fare
The Bengaluru (Namma) Metro network is expanding quickly. This page explains the station overstay penalty that has been reported recently, helps you find nearby metro stations using a free public API (OpenStreetMap Overpass), and shows a distance-based fare chart and simple fare calculator so you can estimate ticket costs for nearby journeys.
About this page (short):
Bengaluru’s metro network — popularly called Namma Metro — now covers many new corridors across the city. Commuters sometimes face long waits or changes to frequency on certain new lines; local reports have highlighted a small overstay penalty being levied at some stations when passengers exit/exit re-entry processes are enforced. This page collects public information about that penalty, gives you tools to locate the nearest stations using your device’s location, and provides an easy fare chart and calculator so you can check probable fare ranges. For live nearby-station lookup we use the Overpass (OpenStreetMap) public API — free to use and widely used for transit data APIs and mapping. For official fare information and detailed updates, please consult BMRCL (Namma Metro) or official press releases.
