    Context

    Cabinet-approved cost hike of ₹9,729.90 cr against ₹30,695.12 cr estimated earlier; exact approval date not confirmed, month/year approximated

  3. revised cost

    ₹40,614 cr whole project [3]

    Funder: state · FY 2024-25

    Context

    Reported by a different outlet than the ₹40,425 cr figure already on file; the ₹189 cr gap between the two almost exactly matches the ₹189.25 cr platform-screen-door trim by the technical committee (see project notes) — this figure likely predates that trim, but the sequencing is not independently confirmed

Sanctioned, released and spent are different things: an allocation is not evidence money was spent.

Notes and caveats

Corporation set to Central as a placeholder — Phase 2 corridors actually span Central/North/South/East/West; not yet mapped to individual wards or corporations. Cost history: sanctioned ₹26,405.14 cr (2014, exact date not confirmed) → revised to ₹30,695.12 cr (date not confirmed) → cabinet-approved hike of ₹9,729.90 cr reported in 2024 media coverage, taking the estimate to ₹40,425 cr (exact cabinet decision date not confirmed). A separate outlet reported the revised estimate as ₹40,614 cr as of 2025-05-26 — a ₹189 cr gap from the ₹40,425 cr figure that almost exactly matches a technical committee's ₹189.25 cr trim (constituted 2025-02-06, reporting 2025-04-29) for excluding platform screen doors from the proposal. This suggests ₹40,614 cr was the pre-trim figure and ₹40,425 cr the post-trim one, but that sequencing is inferred, not independently confirmed — both figures are kept on file rather than one overwriting the other. The intermediate ₹30,695.12 cr revision is only partially sourced and needs a dedicated citation. Individual corridor status/cost is tracked separately: see yellow-line, pink-line, blue-line-phase-2a, blue-line-phase-2b, purple-line-ext-mysore-road, purple-line-ext-whitefield.
