Sant Tukaram Nagar is an elevated metro station on the North-South corridor of the Purple Line of Pune Metro in Pimpri Chinchwad, India. The station was opened on 6 March 2022 and was the first to be completed.[1] From March 2022 to July 2023, the Purple Line operated between PCMC Bhavan and Phugewadi,[2] but from 1 August 2023 the section between Phugewadi and Civil Court metro station came into use, so trains ran from PCMC Bhavan to Civil Court.[3] On 29 September 2024, the launch of Pune Metro Phase I was completed and the Purple Line was fully operational from PCMC to Swargate.[4]
