Driving at New Delhi Station
The station has two sides with very different approaches. The Paharganj side, next to Platform 1, opens onto crowded Chelmsford Road and the Main Bazaar, while the Ajmeri Gate side, near Platform 16, connects to Bhavbhuti Marg and Minto Road and is generally easier to drive out of. New Delhi metro station, on the Ajmeri Gate side, serves the Yellow Line and the Airport Express Line. Connaught Place is a few minutes away, and from there roads lead to Ring Road, NH48 and Mathura Road. Traffic around both entrances is slow for most of the day.

Self drive car at New Delhi Station: FAQs
Which side of the station should I choose for the handover?
If your train arrives near Platform 1, the Paharganj side is closer on foot. The Ajmeri Gate side is usually easier for driving out of the area and is right next to the metro station. Either works, just confirm the side when booking.
What if my train is running late?
Share your train number and coach when you book. Delays are common on long-distance routes, so the handover is planned around the train's running status, and you can call +91 88264 63491 if anything changes.
Can I return the car at the station before my departure?
Yes. Choose the side nearest your departure platform and arrive at least 30 to 45 minutes before the train leaves, since the roads around both entrances move slowly and the car still needs a quick inspection.
