Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation (BMRCL) builds and operates Namma Metro.

Phase 2 (Yellow, Blue, Pink lines) operational/ongoing; Phase 3 (~₹4,187 Cr 2025 civil packages) covers extensions to Sarjapur, Magadi Road, and Kempegowda Airport.

About Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited

BMRCL is the implementing agency for Bangalore (Bengaluru) Metro across multiple phases — Phase 1 (operational since 2011), Phase 2 (88 km, ongoing), and Phase 3 (~₹15,611 Cr total project, 45 km, civil packages tendered 2025). BMRCL doesn't issue a consolidated SOR; each tender NIT publishes its complete project BoQ with rates derived from KPWD CSR (Vol 1-6) + CPWD DSR + DMRC's published technical specifications adapted for Bengaluru's basement-rock geology, traffic congestion, and tropical climate. Phase 3 civil packages (Yelahanka-Doddaballapur extension, Hebbal-Sarjapur Outer Ring corridor, KIA airport extension) carry detailed BoQs accessible via the BMRCL tender portal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does BMRCL publish its own SOR?

No standalone consolidated SOR. Each project tender publishes its complete BoQ during the bid window. Rates derive from KPWD CSR + CPWD DSR + DMRC's published Outline Construction Specification adapted for Bengaluru.

What are Phase 3 civil packages?

Phase 3 (~₹15,611 Cr) covers ~45 km of metro extension across multiple corridors. Civil packages 2025 (~₹4,187 Cr) include viaduct, station civil, depot civil and allied works. Tender details on tenderb.bmrc.co.in.

How is BMRCL different from BBMP?

BMRCL is the metro implementing agency. BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) is the city civic body. Both operate in Bengaluru but on different scope — BMRCL builds metro; BBMP handles civic infrastructure (roads, drainage, parks, civic buildings).

Where can I see recent BMRCL contract awards?

Awarded contracts are listed on the BMRCL annual report and recent NIT pages on tenderb.bmrc.co.in. Engineering News Record and CEAI track major Indian metro awards including BMRCL.

How does BMRCL rate compare to DMRC?

BMRCL applies DMRC's technical envelope but Bengaluru's basement-rock geology drives different foundation rates (lower for piles in rock vs Delhi alluvium). Labour and material lead from Tumakuru/Bangalore Rural quarries also differ.
