Why Does This Matter?
This small extension is set to make a big impact. It will take metro access deeper into Greater Noida, reaching areas like Bodaki and Junpat village. With growing residential and industrial developments in these regions, the improved connectivity is expected to boost travel ease and reduce reliance on road transport.
Who's Funding the Project?
The financial load will be shared among various government agencies.
Rs 211.80 crore will come from central institutions like the National Capital Region Planning Board.
The Centre will pitch in with Rs 70.59 crore.
Uttar Pradesh government will contribute Rs 91.08 crore.
Rs 10.44 crore will go towards land acquisition.
What's Next on the Cards?
While the Bodaki extension is a go, NMRC is now eyeing the green light for two more projects:
A major 11.56km link from Botanical Garden to Noida Sector 142
A 5km connection from Sector 51 to Knowledge Park 5 in Greater Noida West

The Botanical Garden route is especially crucial, as it will bring seamless integration between Delhi Metro's Blue Line and Noida Metro's Aqua Line, making it easier to reach Noida International Airport in Jewar.
NMRC has already completed the topography survey for the 11.56km route, mapping buildings, homes, and markets along the planned track. Once approved, work will begin at full speed.

Key indices slip to 2-mth low

Mumbai: Falling for the third straight session on Monday, benchmark Sensex tumbled by 572 points to close at nearly a two-month low due to heavy selling in Kotak Mahindra Bank, forex outflows and uncertainty related to the India-US trade deal. The 30-share BSE barometer tanked 572.07 points or 0.70 per cent to settle at 80,891.02, a level not seen since June 4. During the day, it slumped 686.65 points or 0.84 per cent to 80,776.44. The 50-share NSE Nifty declined 156.10 points or 0.63 per cent to close at a nearly two-month low of 24,680.90. As many as 35 Nifty shares declined, and 15 advanced. Analysts said disappointing quarterly results and continued selling by FIIs dragged stock markets down for the third session in a row. Nifty has tanked over 2 per cent or 539 points while Sensex retreated by 1,835 points or 2.2 per cent to trade at near two-month low levels. Among Sensex firms, Kotak Mahindra Bank tumbled the most by 7.31 per cent after the company reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 4,472 crore for the June quarter, and flagged stress on the retail commercial vehicle portfolio due to adverse macroeconomic conditions. The profit in the year-ago period was Rs 7,448 crore, but it had included gains of over Rs 3,000 crore on its stake sale in the general insurance arm, while the net profit for the March quarter stood at Rs 4,933 crore. Bajaj Finance dropped 3.64 per cent amid asset quality concerns, while Bharti Airtel fell by 2.35 per cent. Tata Consultancy Services dropped 1.76 per cent amid reports that the IT major has decided to lay off over 12,000 employees. Sources said that the IT Ministry is keeping a close watch on the entire situation and is in touch with the tech company over the matter. Titan, HCL Tech and State Bank of India were also among the laggards. However, Hindustan Unilever, Asian Paints, ICICI Bank, Power Grid, HDFC Bank and ITC were the gainers. 'Domestic market sentiment has remained cautious, weighed down by a disappointing set of Q1 earnings, delays in the India-US trade agreement, and continued FII outflows. In contrast, global markets remain broadly positive, supported by US-EU trade developments that are perceived as less concerning than anticipated. 'The upcoming monetary policy decisions from the Fed and BoJ, along with the trajectory of domestic quarterly earnings, are expected to play a pivotal role in shaping market direction in the near term,' Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said. The BSE smallcap gauge tumbled 1.31 per cent and midcap index fell by 0.73 per cent. Among BSE sectoral indices, realty tanked 4.11 per cent, followed by telecommunication (1.56 per cent), capital goods (1.49 per cent), BSE industrials (1.40 per cent), teck (1.21 per cent) and metal (1.06 per cent).
