The Kavi Subhash Metro Station, formerly New Garia Metro Station, is the southern terminal station of the North-South corridor of Kolkata Metro in Kolkata, India. It is named after poet Subhash Mukhopadhyay.[1] This station was opened to public on the auspicious day of Mahalaya in 2010.

This metro station is at ground level and located adjacent to New Garia Railway station on the Sealdah-Sonarpur section. The station will eventually become the southernmost terminal of the Jai Hind - Kavi Subhash corridor of the Kolkata Metro.[2]
