The Department of Posts on Monday said it is launching 24 Speed Post on March 17.

The service will be launched by Jyotiraditya M. Scindia, Union Minister of Communications, and Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani, Minister of State for Communications, in the presence of senior officers of the Department at Rangbhawan Auditorium, Akashwani Bhawan, New Delhi at 12:30 PM.

The 24 Speed Post introduces next day guaranteed delivery for urgent and time-sensitive consignments.

In the first phase, the service will be available across Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru and Hyderabad.

"Alongside this, 24 and 48 Speed Post services will provide assured D+1 and D+2 delivery timelines, enabled through dedicated processing windows and priority air transmission," the Indian government said in a statement.

The services will also feature OTP-based secure delivery, end-to-end tracking with SMS alerts, BNPL facility for business customers, free pickup for bulk bookings, API integration and centralized billing, along with a money-back guarantee in case of delay, further strengthening India Post’s premium express delivery capabilities.
