Indian Speed Post

I recently used their services after a long long time.
For quite some time, I had started to rely on various
private courier services.
One of the changes I have noticed is the tracking facility,
which earlier used to be provided by only the private
service providers.
With speed post, you can track your consignments here.

Charges are way less than DTDC,First Flight(FF) etc.
Same shipment from Bangalore to Pune costs Rs. 85/-
on them vs. Rs. 25/- on speed post.

From Bangalore to Jodhpur
DTDC/FF : Rs. 85/-
Speed Post : Rs. 57/-

From Bangalore to Jodhpur Speed Post took between
2-3 days, while DTDC took close to 6-7 days.

Yes, right. Post office is still one of best services under public sector.

For a packet from Chennai to Pune :
First Flight : 100/- their pick up office charges are different from their website.

Speed Post : 56/-

Speed Post is best service in case of tier 2/3 cities.

Thanks for tracking link, i was
looking for it.

Hey Manish,
How you doing?
For some reason, while I was writing this post, your thought crossed my mind :-) Don't know why :-)
