Bengaluru, November 6, 2026: Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) and InMobi have announced a long-term partnership for the InMobi Ibbaluru Metro Station to support Bengaluru’s expanding public transport ecosystem and urban development, according to a press release issued by the company.
Under the agreement, InMobi has secured the naming rights for the Ibbaluru Metro Station for a period of 30 years, with a total contractual commitment of Rs 65 crore, excluding GST. The station will officially be known as the InMobi Ibbaluru Metro Station. The collaboration aims to bring together public infrastructure and private enterprise to encourage public transport usage, address traffic congestion, and support the city’s long-term economic growth.
Dr. P. C. Jaffer, Managing Director, BMRCL, said: “We are delighted to welcome InMobi, India’s first double unicorn company, as our partner in the development of Bengaluru’s Metro infrastructure. This partnership demonstrates how leading corporate organisations can contribute meaningfully to the growth of public transport. The Rs. 65 crore arrangement will support Metro infrastructure development while strengthening BMRCL’s non-fare revenue initiatives. We look forward to many more such partnerships with Bengaluru’s corporate community.”
Naveen Tewari, Founder and CEO, InMobi, said: “Bengaluru gave InMobi the confidence to imagine and build a global future. As we have grown, so has our sense of responsibility towards the city that shaped our journey. This partnership reflects our commitment to giving back to Bengaluru and our belief that businesses have a role to play in the development of the communities they are a part of. As we continue building from India for the world, we remain equally committed to contributing to the city where our journey began.”
Dr. Subi Chaturvedi, Global SVP, Chief Corporate Affairs and Public Policy Officer, InMobi, added: “A city’s progress is felt in the daily lives of its citizens: how easily a student reaches college, a professional gets to work or a family travels across the city. Public transport makes those connections possible. Through our partnership with BMRCL, we are committing to Bengaluru’s future with the patience and responsibility that city-building requires. Our intention is to create lasting public value through infrastructure that serves people across generations. It’s truly a moment of great pride for all InMobians.”
