History

This station had originally been named Subhash Nagar, despite the fact that it was not located near the Subhash Nagar area. Following appeals from local residents, the MMRDA decided to change the name of the station to Asalpha in December 2013. The next station (towards Ghatkopar), which had originally been named Asalpha, was subsequently renamed Jagruti Nagar.
