Mumbai: Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Ltd.

"The integration of NCMC card with Mumbai Metro Line 3 marks a significant milestone. As the city's first fully underground metro corridor, Line 3 is designed with future-ready infrastructure-and this seamless contactless payment solution is a vital part of that vision. We are pleased to partner so to enable a unified, convenient travel experience for Mumbaikars and support the Government of India's National Common Mobility Card initiative," said Ashwini Bhide, Managing Director, Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Ltd.

Commuters can now use the same NCMC card across Metro Line 3, Metro Line 2A & 7, and Metro Line 1, ensuring a unified and convenient travel experience. Additionally, NCMC cards issued by other Metro lines and transport operators like Chalo Bus are fully compatible and can be used at any Metro Line 3 station.

Existing users of NCMC card can continue using their cards, while new users can obtain the NCMC Card at any station from Aarey JVLR to Acharya Atre Chowk stations of Line 3 and partnered SBI branches. These cards are available free of cost, with a mandatory top-up of a minimum Rs 100 and up to Rs 2000 for travel use.
