Delivery Within 24 & 48 Hours
The Department of Posts on Tuesday launched three premium services offering 24-hour and 48-hour delivery guarantees for urgent and time-sensitive consignments. The services—24 Speed Post, 24 Speed Post Parcel, and 48 Speed Post—were introduced by Union Communications Minister Jyotiraditya M. Scindia.
The rollout has initially begun in six major cities—Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad. The department will rely on dedicated processing systems and priority air transport to ensure timely deliveries.
Speaking at the launch, Scindia said the initiative marks a new phase for India Post and highlighted its growth potential. He noted that India’s e-commerce market is projected to expand to Rs 30 lakh crore by 2030, nearly tripling from the current Rs 11 lakh crore.
According to an official statement, the new services will include OTP-based delivery verification, end-to-end tracking, and real-time alerts for customers.
