Lines and platforms at Sikandarpur

The station has two elevated parts side by side: the Yellow Line station run by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), and the Rapid Metro station. Each has two side platforms.

Line	Platform	Trains towards	Next station
Yellow	1	Millennium City Centre Gurugram	MG Road
Yellow	2	Samaypur Badli (Delhi)	Guru Dronacharya
Rapid Metro	1	Sector 55–56	Phase 1
Rapid Metro	2	Phase 3 (via Cyber City)	Phase 2

On the Yellow Line, trains run north through Guru Dronacharya, Qutub Minar, Saket, Hauz Khas, AIIMS and Rajiv Chowk to Samaypur Badli, and south to MG Road, IFFCO Chowk and Millennium City Centre Gurugram.

Rapid Metro from Sikandarpur

The Rapid Metro is a fully elevated, 12.85 km line with 11 stations. Sikandarpur is where its two sections meet:

Phase 1 (opened 2013–2014): a loop through DLF Phase 2, Belvedere Towers, Cyber City, Moulsari Avenue and DLF Phase 3. This serves the DLF Cyber City office district.
Phase 2 (opened March–April 2017): south along Golf Course Road through DLF Phase 1, Sector 42–43, Sector 53–54, Sector 54 Chowk and Sector 55–56.

DMRC took over day-to-day running of the Rapid Metro in 2019. In September 2025, the Haryana Mass Rapid Transport Corporation (HMRTC) started moving operations to Gurugram Metro Rail Limited (GMRL), with DMRC and GMRL managing it jointly until the handover is complete. Services continue as before for passengers.

How to change between the Yellow Line and Rapid Metro

Get off the train and follow the signs for the Rapid Metro (or the Yellow Line, if you are coming from Cyber City).
Walk across the covered walkway of about 90 metres that joins the two stations.
The Rapid Metro charges its own fare, so pass through its fare gates as shown on the signs. DMRC smart cards and tokens are accepted on the Rapid Metro.
Pick your platform: Platform 1 for Golf Course Road and Sector 55–56, Platform 2 for Cyber City and DLF Phase 3.
In office peak hours, the walkway and Rapid Metro platforms get crowded. Allow a few extra minutes.

Gates and exits

The station opens onto MG Road, close to Sikanderpur village and market and the DLF Phase 1 side. Public station guides list the gates in different ways, so we have not given a gate-by-gate table. Use the signboards on the concourse, or the station page on the DMRC app, to find the exit nearest your destination.

Fares and timings

Yellow Line fare: since 25 August 2025, Delhi Metro fares are ₹11 to ₹64 from Monday to Saturday and ₹11 to ₹54 on Sundays and national holidays, based on distance.
Rapid Metro fare: flat fares, reported at ₹20 for a trip within one phase and ₹35 between Phase 1 and Phase 2. The HMRTC board has recommended a small increase, so check the current fare at the counter before you travel.
Yellow Line timings: trains run from around 6 AM to around 11 PM or later. First and last train times differ by direction and on Sundays.
Rapid Metro timings: roughly 6 AM to 10 PM, so it closes earlier than the Yellow Line. Plan late trips from Cyber City with this in mind.

Nearby landmarks

DLF Cyber City: one of Gurugram’s largest office districts, two to four Rapid Metro stops away.
Golf Course Road: high-rise homes and office towers, served by Rapid Metro Phase 2.
Sikanderpur market and village: local shops, eateries and rental housing near the station.
DLF Phase 1 to Phase 3: large residential areas on both sides of MG Road.

Homes and offices near Sikandarpur

Sikandarpur matters to buyers and renters because it is the only point where the Rapid Metro joins the wider Delhi Metro network. A home or office near any Rapid Metro station gets a one-change ride to south Delhi and central Delhi.

Offices: DLF Cyber City, Cyber Hub and the office towers on Golf Course Road and MG Road.
Homes: DLF Phase 1, 2 and 3, Sectors 42–43 and 53–56 along Golf Course Road, and builder floors and paying-guest rooms in Sikanderpur and nearby villages.
Short-stay renters: many people who work in Cyber City rent near Yellow Line stations such as MG Road, Guru Dronacharya or further north in Delhi, and change at Sikandarpur.

Before you rent or buy near Sikandarpur

Check the collector (circle) rate. Stamp duty in Haryana is charged on the deal value or the collector rate, whichever is higher.
Check RERA for new projects. Look up the project on the Haryana RERA (Gurugram) website before you book.
Check the land and title record. For plots and builder floors, check the jamabandi record and the chain of sale deeds.
Put the lease in writing. Sign a rent agreement with the rent, deposit, notice period and maintenance clearly listed.
Walk the route. Time the walk from the property to the station at the hour you will travel, and note that the Rapid Metro stops earlier at night.
