Delhi Metro's new INA station under phase-III, which is going to be constructed adjacent to the operational INA metro station, will be a major interchange hub of south Delhi, providing connectivity between Jahangirpui HUDA City Centre (phase-II) and Mukundpur- Yamuna Vihar metro corridors (phase-III).

At present, the operational INA station provides metro connectivity to three major shopping attractions of the capital, namely Sarojini Nagar, INA Market and Delhi Haat. With the opening of the new station, connectivity of the residents from north, west and east Delhi localities, such as Mukundpur, Rajouri Garden, Mayur Vihar etc., will be eased as people from these areas will be able to come to the shopping centres directly. Delhi will also be able to commute by metro by using INA as an interchange station. The residential areas of Sarojini Nagar and Laxmi Bai Nagar will also be benefitted as it will provide connectivity to all parts of Delhi.

From the construction perspective, this metro station is going to be unique as the platform will be constructed above the concourse for the first time in Delhi Metro, because of the height variation between the existing INA station and the upcoming new INA station owing to the already existing metro tunnel at the location.

DMRC has modified the station design to adjust to the new circumstances. The station will have five entry and exit points for the convenience of passengers with three of them being planned for the new INA phase- III metro station.

As per the DPR, the interchange load of this station will be 1,29,881 in 2016 on a daily basis. Presently, the daily footfall of the operational INA station is 37, 000.
