The Green Line is a part of the Hyderabad Metro system in Telangana, India. The line is 16.6 km long and spans 15 stations from JBS Parade Ground to Falaknuma. It was funded by a public–private partnership (PPP), with the state government holding a minority equity stake. A special purpose vehicle company, L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Ltd (L&TMRHL), was established by the construction company Larsen & Toubro (L&T) to develop the Hyderabad Metro rail project.

An 11-kilometre (6.8-mile) stretch of the Green Line from JBS Parade Ground to MG Bus Station, with 9 stations, was inaugurated on 7 February 2020 by Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, and opened to the public the next day. A 5.6 km southward extension from MG Bus Station to Falaknuma is yet to be completed in the Old City.
