What actually happened?
The Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety (CMRS) has cleared rolling stock and systems for Metro Line 4 and its 4A extension. This paves way for trial runs later this year.
The initial 10km Gaimukh–Cadbury section could open ahead of schedule by late 2026.
What it means for buyers
Eastern suburbs between Ghatkopar and Thane will see the biggest gains. Projects within 15-minute walk of stations command 12-15% premiums today – expect this to double post-launch.
Investors should track Mulund East and Kasarvadavali for under-construction mid-segment inventories.

- 🛒 Retail space demand up 22% along alignment since 2023
What to watch next
MMRCL will award last-mile connectivity contracts by Q3 2024. Look for footbridge and feeder bus plans – these make or break locality accessibility.
