DMRC, Mappls Partner To Enhance Metro Travel Experience

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Mappls MapmyIndia, one of India’s leading digital mapping and geospatial technology companies, to integrate DMRC’s Application Programming Interface (API) with the Mappls App, enhancing the commuting experience across the Delhi-NCR region.

Under the agreement, DMRC’s metro data will be incorporated into the Mappls platform, enabling over 35 million Mappls users to access detailed information such as nearby metro stations, routes, fares, line interchanges, train frequencies, and estimated travel times directly through the app.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr Vikas Kumar, Managing Director of DMRC, said, “Delhi Metro is committed to improving commuter convenience through innovation and technology. Integrating our data with the Mappls App will make travel across NCR smarter, seamless, and time-efficient. This collaboration marks another step toward creating a smarter, safer, and more connected public transport ecosystem.”

Rakesh Verma, Co-Founder, Managing Director, and Group Chairman of MapmyIndia, added, “The integration of DMRC data into Mappls’ multi-modal transport feature will make travel across Delhi-NCR faster and smarter. This MoU builds on our recent collaboration with the Indian Railways, as announced by the Minister for Railways, Electronics and IT, Ashwini Vaishnaw. We are proud to support the government’s vision for an Aatmanirbhar Viksit Bharat through world-class, indigenous technology.”

The initiative aims to make travel information more open, accessible, and user-friendly, empowering commuters with accurate and real-time data through the Mappls Traffic and Public Engagement Platform.

In addition to metro details, the app will help users find nearby government services, get suggested multi-modal routes with estimated travel times, and report real-time issues such as traffic congestion, accidents, parking shortages, or waterlogging.

This collaboration is expected to significantly enhance urban mobility and commuter engagement, enabling citizens to plan journeys efficiently and share feedback directly through their smartphones.
