Meerut Metro and Namo Bharat Timings
Read on the NCRTC portal on 12 November 2026
Short answer: trains run every day. From the terminals the first train leaves at about 6:00 AM and the last at about 10:00 PM. A train comes about every 10 min. NCRTC has not published a separate Sunday and holiday timetable or station-wise times, so those say Coming soon below. The portal itself calls its timings indicative.
First and last train from the terminals
| From | Service | First | Last |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sarai Kale Khan towards Modipuram | Namo Bharat | 6:00 AM | 10:00 PM |
| Modipuram towards Sarai Kale Khan | Namo Bharat | 6:01 AM | 10:01 PM |
| Modipuram towards Meerut South | Meerut Metro | 6:06 AM | 10:06 PM |
Times are from the NCRTC portal's station data, which lists them as “every day”. They are indicative. Please check at the station.
How often do trains run?
- The portal's live feed on Thursday 12 November 2026 at about 7:46 PM showed trains from Sarai Kale Khan at 7:51, 8:01 and 8:11 PM, a gap of 10 minutes. Meerut South to Modipuram on Meerut Metro showed 7:50, 8:00 and 8:10 PM.
- The portal FAQ still says 15 minutes. The live feed is newer, so we use about 10 min.
- News reports say NCRTC added extra trips: eight more Sarai Kale Khan to Meerut South trips in peak hours from 22 May 2026 (India TV News), and 52 extra trips with a gap of 8 minutes during the Kanwar Yatra from 30 July to 14 August 2026 (ThePrint).
Sundays and public holidays
Coming soon. The portal lists the same hours for every day and has no separate Sunday or holiday timetable. A news report (Outlook Traveller, 23 February 2026) said Sunday service was expected to start at 8:00 AM, but the portal does not show this, so we do not use it. Please check at the station on Sundays and holidays.
Station-wise times and ride time
- Station-wise first and last train: Coming soon. The portal rows for single stations do not match the terminal times, so we do not publish them.
- Ride time: NCRTC lists about 45 minutes 30 seconds from Sarai Kale Khan to Meerut South and about 64 minutes from Sarai Kale Khan to Modipuram for all-stop trains. News reports give 55 to 58 minutes for limited-stop trains (Outlook Traveller, 23 February 2026).
- Some trains skip some stations. On 12 November 2026 the live feed showed limited-stop and all-stop Namo Bharat trains, and Meerut Metro trains between Meerut South and Modipuram. Check the station boards.
