Cuffe Parade is an underground terminal metro station located in the Colaba neighborhood, on the North–South corridor of the Aqua Line of the Mumbai Metro in Mumbai, India. The station was opened to public on 9 October 2025, along with the remaining section of the Aqua Line from Acharya Atre Chowk to Cuffe Parade.
Station Layout The conceptual and architectural design for the Cuffe Parade metro station was developed by the urban design firm StudioPOD, with architect Sachin Daga serving as a principal designer.
Unlike standard transit stations, the facility was planned as a multi-use transit hub to maximize non-fare box revenue and enhance public utility. The underground station integrates a large open-to-sky sunken plaza into its entrance layout, which serves as a public gathering space and facilitates pedestrian movement. The subterranean levels feature dedicated commercial zones, including retail spaces and restaurant areas designed to encourage foot traffic. Additionally, the station incorporates an integrated multi-level car parking (MLCP) facility to address localized parking demands in the Cuffe Parade commercial district.
