| Lifecycle Stage | Time Period | Key Metro Projects | Characteristics & Trends | Customer Trends |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Introduction | 2011–2015 | ● Delhi Airport Metro Express (2011) ● Chennai Metro Phase-1 (2015) |
● Limited adoption ● Considered high-cost innovation ● PSDs confined to premium/new metro lines ● Pilots and specialized installations initially |
● Curiosity and appreciation for safety ● Viewed as premium, modern amenity |
| Growth | 2016–2023 | ● Delhi Metro Phase 3 (Magenta, Pink Lines) ● Mumbai Metro Lines 2A, 7 & 3 ● Kolkata Metro (East-West Line) ● Nagpur Metro (Post-2019) ● Pune Metro (2023) ● Bengaluru Metro (planned pilots) |
● Rapid, widespread deployment ● Mandated in new lines for safety and operational efficiency ● Began retrofitting existing stations (e.g., Delhi’s Yellow Line) ● Policy support increased; energy savings recognized |
● Strong demand for improved safety and crowd management ● Passengers increasingly view PSDs as essential, not optional |
| Maturity | 2024–Present | ● Delhi Metro Phase 4- Mumbai Metro future lines (Lines 4, 5, 6) ● Bengaluru Metro expansion ● Retrofitting across older lines (Kolkata, Delhi) |
