HITEC City Metro Station is located on the Blue Line of the Hyderabad Metro.[1][2] Hitec City has three-level stations, having an estimated height of up to 60 feet or 18 metres.[3] Hitec City metro station is near National Institute of Fashion Technology Hyderabad and Hyderabad Next Galleria mall (PVR icon multiplex).[4] Hyderabad Next Galleria is developed by L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Limited,[5] and is spread over two acres and with a built up area of about 200,000 square feet (19,000 m2).[6][7] A dedicated skywalk connects the metro station to the Next Galleria mall. In September 2019, Medicover Hospitals (Formerly MaxCure Hospitals) became the sponsor of the HITEC City metro station, under semi-naming policy of Hyderabad metro to generate non-fare revenues.

HITEC City metro station is the most busiest metro station in Hyderabad,[8] with daily footfalls of around 42,000 commuters.[9][10] This Corridor Three (Blue) from Nagole has few pillars inside Cyber Towers compound, thereafter the route turn towards Cyber Gateway,[11] and finally cumlimating at the terminal point in Raheja Mindspace Junction (Raidurg metro station),[12] from where Phase 2 airport route will commence.[13] A reverse viaduct is between HiTec City and Trident Hotel.[14] There are shuttle services from Hi-tech metro station to nearby IT companies like Microsoft, Value Labs and Raheja Mindspace to improve the last mile connectivity.[15][16]
