The station is part of the Pink Line (Line 7) of the Delhi Metro, which forms a partial ring connecting Majlis Park in the north-west to Shiv Vihar in the north-east via several major arterial roads. Ashram lies on the southern arc of this corridor, between the stations on either side of the Ring Road segment.
The station is situated near Ashram Chowk, where Mathura Road meets the Ring Road. The area is a major surface-transport interchange served by Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) buses and intercity routes towards Faridabad and Noida. The locality includes residential colonies such as Bhogal, Jangpura, New Friends Colony approaches, and Sarai Kale Khan to the east.
Ashram was constructed as part of the Pink Line corridor developed by the DMRC under Phase III of the Delhi Metro expansion. The corridor was opened in stages, with the southern section linking Lajpat Nagar with the eastern parts of the city integrating Ashram into the network.
As an elevated station, Ashram has a standard configuration with a concourse level for ticketing and security checks, and a platform level above for trains. The station includes provisions such as escalators, lifts, automatic fare collection gates, and tactile paths for accessibility, in line with DMRC standards.
The station improves rail-based access to a congested traffic corridor and supports last-mile connectivity to neighbourhoods in South East Delhi. It complements the Ring Road bus network and offers an alternative to road travel along Mathura Road, which connects central Delhi with the southern suburbs.
