Parcels can be delivered from Monday through Saturday, with the exception of Sunday, which can also be requested at an added price. Premium shipping is only applicable for prepaid shipments and the maximum weight per shipment is 10 kgs.
Express shipping is the second best option after Premium. This option can get orders delivered to 9900 pin codes across 2300 districts. Time of delivery may vary and 3 attempts for order fulfillment is made without any extra charge. The weight limit on Express shipping is 32 kgs. And lastly, Economy shipping. Economy is the best option for orders that are not time-sensitive. Economy shipping, naturally, is the cheapest of all the shipping services. Economy offers delivery to the same serviceable locations as Express shipping does. The plus side with Economy is that retailers can ship products weighing upto 68 kgs. There is no specified timeframe for when orders are delivered with Economy, but generally, it is somewhere between 5-8 days.
