Indian Railways to Launch Door-to-Door Parcel Delivery Service in Eight Cities
Indian Railways plans to launch a door-to-door parcel delivery service in eight major cities, including Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata. The service will enable customers to book shipments online via the Rail Parcel App or website, pay digitally, and track parcels in real time. Private logistics partners will handle doorstep pickups and deliveries, while Indian Railways will transport parcels between cities. The service is currently under development and will be implemented after testing is complete.
