Move to boost revenue: Namma Metro to wrap trains with ads

The Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) is planning to allow advertisements on its trains to generate revenue. This decision comes after a similar move by other metro corporations in India. BMRCL currently owns 57 six-coach train sets operating on the Purple and Green lines. They will soon be floating a...

tender for this purpose, ensuring that the windows will remain advertisement-free. BMRCL had previously opted out of train advertisements to preserve the aesthetic of the trains, but the ban on outdoor advertisements by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) in 2018 impacted their revenue from advertisements on metro pillars and medians. The BMRCL network is expected to expand significantly in the coming years, reaching 175 km by 2025-26 and 317 km by 2031.

Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) apne trains pe advertisements allow karne ka plan bana raha hai, yeh revenue generate karne ke liye. Dusre Indian metro corporations ne bhi yeh kadam uthaya hai. BMRCL ke pass 57 six-coach train sets hai jo Purple aur Green lines pe chalte hai....

Iske liye jaldi hi tender float kiya jaayega, yeh pakka hai ki trains ki khidkiyon pe advertisements nahi honge. BMRCL pehle trains pe advertisements nahi chahta tha, taaki trains ka aesthetic bana rahe, lekin 2018 me Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) ne outdoor advertisements pe ban lagaya tha, jisse metro pillars aur medians pe advertisements se aane wali revenue pe asar pada tha. BMRCL network aane waale saalon me bahut bada hone wala hai, 2025-26 tak 175 km aur 2031 tak 317 km tak pahunch jaayega.
