Nagpur Metro, also called as Majhi Metro is a rapid transit system for the city of Nagpur, located in the state of Maharashtra, India. The system consists of 2 colour-coded lines serving 37 stations, with a total length of 38.2 kilometres (23.7 mi). It is also being touted as the greenest metro rail in India.

The prime minister inaugurated operations on Nagpur Metro on 8 March 2019 via video conferencing along with Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis and Union Cabinet Minister Nitin Gadkari.

Currently, Phase II of Nagpur Metro is under construction and will add 43.8 km to the existing network, connecting areas like Hingna, Kanhan, Butibori MIDC, and Transport Nagar. Civil work, including pier erection and viaduct construction, has already commenced on several stretches. The geotechnical investigation and land acquisition phases have been largely completed, and construction is in full swing across multiple corridors.[1][2]

Phase III of Nagpur Metro is a proposed 11.5 km corridor from Sitabuldi to Koradi, planned under the ₹25,567 crore Comprehensive Mobility Plan. The corridor, which branches at Kasturchand Park station, will feature both elevated and underground sections—marking the city's first underground metro stretch. It is expected to serve around 1.47 lakh daily commuters by 2054. A second 25 km corridor from Mankapur Chowk to Rachana Junction along the Inner Ring Road is also planned, initially for electric buses, with potential future upgrade to a metro corridor.[3][4][5]

The project was conceived during 2012, when cities of more than 2 million were made eligible for having a metro rail system. This decision by the government made 12 cities in India eligible for metro rail, including Nagpur. Kamal Nath, then Union minister for urban development, proposed a metro system in Nagpur and called for a detailed project report from the state government. On 22 February 2012, the Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) signed an agreement with Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to prepare the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the metro rail in Nagpur. The Central Ministry had allocated ₹2.4 crore (equivalent to ₹4.5 crore or US$540,000 in 2023) to the State Government for carrying out the DPR work.

To execute the project, the Cabinet approved setting up of Nagpur Metro Rail Corporation Limited (NMRCL) now known as Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation Limited (MAHA-METRO). Maha Metro is a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) created for the smooth implementation and operations of the Nagpur Metro Rail Project and is a joint venture of the Government of India and the Government of Maharashtra, with 50:50 equity. Maha Metro is solely responsible for the successful and timely completion of the project and its subsequent operations.

DMRC submitted the report to the nodal agency Nagpur Improvement Trust on 12 February 2013. The total cost of the project was estimated at ₹9,000 crore. The project consisted of two routes: Automotive square, Kamptee to MIHAN Metro depot and Prajapati Nagar, East Wardhaman Nagar to Lokmanya Nagar, Hingna. There would be 17 stations on Route no. 1 with a terminal-depot at MIHAN and 19 stations on Route no. 2 with a terminal-depot at Lokmanya Nagar. A cross major station was proposed at Munje Square where the two routes would meet and commuters could transfer.

It was expected that 12.21 per cent of Nagpur's estimated population of 29 lakh in 2021, i.e., around 3,63,000 commuters would use the Metro by 2021.
