The Maluri station is a Malaysian Interchange rapid transit station located on the eastern fringe of Kuala Lumpur, situated near and named after Taman Maluri (Malay; English: Maluri Estate). The elevated station serves the Sentul Timur-Ampang branch of the Ampang Line (formerly known as STAR, and the Ampang and Sri Petaling Lines) while the underground station, scheduled to open in July 2017, will serve the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line. and will serve as an interchange station to LRT's Ampang Line. The station is located at Jalan Cheras Lama near AEON-JUSCO Taman Maluri shopping centre. The station is located close to Jalan Cheras, close to Kerayong River, with access points towards the road and the eastern tip of Taman Miharja (Miharja Estate).

Alike to Masjid Jamek, the Ampang Line and MRT stations will be physically linked up once the Semantan-Kajang stretch commences operations. The paid zones of the two lines will be integrated and passengers are not required to exit the station and buy new tickets.

The station was first opened on December 16, 1996, as part of the first phase of the STAR system's opening, alongside 13 adjoining stations along the Sultan Ismail-Ampang route. The station reuses the now defunct Federated Malay States Railway and Malayan Railway (KTM) route between Kuala Lumpur, Ampang and Salak South. The Ampang Line part of the Maluri station was built as an elevated station along two tracks for trains traveling in opposite direction. Like other elevated Ampang Line stations, the station consists primarily of two above-ground levels, albeit lower. The ticket area, serving as a concourse area between street level and the platforms above is located on a raised level over a base. The platform level is on the uppermost portion of the structure, containing the train tracks and two side platforms sheltered by roofs. Both platforms converge at the ticket area via stairways and escalators, but no elevators are provided until 2015. The principal styling of the station is alike most other stations in the line, featuring multi-tiered roofs supported by latticed frames, and white plastered walls and pillars.
