The Kolkata Metro is India’s oldest underground rapid transit — and today, with the Blue, Green, Orange and Purple lines expanding, it has become a daily-need infrastructure for 700,000+ daily riders. Metro branding gets you into the air-conditioned, time-rich, smartphone-distracted journey of urban India’s most attentive commuters.

Overview

Why Metro Branding

Metro riders are a premium audience — office-goers, students, IT professionals, business travellers. They are calm, time-rich, and trapped between stations with nothing to look at except your ad. There is no urban medium with a better attention profile.

Where We Place Ads

Exterior coach wraps (premium showpiece format), seat-back stickers (eye-level captive), platform pillars, concourse hoardings, ticket-vending wraps, and station-name backlit panels. A complete metro campaign uses all of these in combination.

Lines We Cover

Blue Line (Noapara ↔ Kavi Subhash) — the legacy north-south corridor; Green Line (Howrah Maidan ↔ Sector V) — the underwater crossing; Orange Line (Kavi Subhash ↔ Airport segment); Purple Line (Joka ↔ Esplanade segment).
