Saw these buses plying on outer ring road near BTM layout yesterday & today.
Looks like an extension of Big10 concept, Big10 to Circle Routes to S (not sure what it stands for) routes?
Surprisingly, while the BMTC call center did not have any detail to offer, the buses seemed to quite fully loaded!. I got bumped from the call center guy to the control room to Vijayanagar Bus Stand (22952362). All were cordial, willing to help, but had no info to offer.

There was a statement in
There was a statement in bmtctravelinfo.com regarding introduction of buses between vijayanagar and shivajinagar in clockwise and anticlockwise after the bus day. Probably this is the bus.
S1,S2 disappeared
S1 and S2 Marcopolo routes which were operational only for few days have disappeared. With the increased Volvo fare, this would have been successful due to A/C and reduced fare.
