Redefining Metro Operations in India

MEMCO made history in 2017 as the first private company to be awarded the contract for metro train operations under Chennai Metro Rail Phase 1. Building on this milestone, we expanded our role in 2019 to include operations at the Depot Control Centre (DCC) and the Progress Planning Investigation Office (PPIO). 

Today, we manage complete train operations for Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Limited (MMMOCL), covering Lines 2A, 7, and 2B. As operations scale, we continue to plan strategic recruitment and resource deployment to support future expansion. 

Pioneering Private Train Operations with CMRL

MEMCO set a precedent in 2017 by becoming the first private company to operate metro trains for Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL), marking a major milestone in public-private collaboration. By 2019, our role deepened with the inclusion of Depot Control Center (DCC) and PPIO responsibilities. Our team of 161 skilled professionals ensured smooth operations across the network through strategic roster management and constant performance oversight. From 2017 to 2023, MEMCO played a vital role in powering Chennai’s metro rail journey.

In 2023, MEMCO secured a third major contract, once again with MMMOCL, for Line 2B. This expansion will see the onboarding of over 120 new train operators and support staff, further strengthening MEMCO’s role in powering Mumbai’s urban transit infrastructure.
