new norms of speed post delivery
D.G. Posts No. 13-45/2008-D dated 10/11/.12.2013
The
norms for delivery of Speed Post articles have in the past been revised
from time to time and are also contained in the Citizen’s Charter of
the Department. The existing delivery norms for Speed Post are follows:
(a) Local (within municipal limits) : 2 days
(b)
Between one to another metro city (included the six metro cities i.e.
Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad) and limited to
Municipal limits of these cities: 2 days
(c) Rest of the country: 4 to 6 days.
2.
The norms mentioned above are further qualified by stating that they
exclude the day of posting, Sundays and Holidays that they denote
maximum time and apply only to the articles booked before the cut-off
time.
3.
The matter relating to revision of the existing norms for delivery of
Speed Post articles was under consideration of this Directorate, and the
following has been decided in this regard:
(a)
New delivery (transit) norms have been worked out on a city-to-city
basis for 87 cities where Speed Post Sorting Hubs are located
(excluding 1 CBPO & 2 CBPO). The new delivery norms are
being circulated to all concerned by e-mail along with this O.M. The
same may be downloaded.
(b) The new norms for a pair of cities have been prescribed in terms of a range. For example,
the delivery norms between Mumbai and Pune is “1 to 2 days, i.e. D+1 to D+2 where “D” is the day of booking.
(c) The new norms would be restricted to the municipal limits of a city (covering only TD PIN codes) under reference.
4. The new delivery norms for Speed Post would be subject to the conditions that:
* They are limited to 87 cities, and municipal limit within these cities,
*
They do not apply to the articles booked after the cut-off time on a
day(normally) taken as 3 or 4 pm for booking counters at post offices or
as decided by the Circle concerned) and an extra day may be added
in such cases,
* The delivery norms do not include Sundays and holidays,
* Delay occurring due to curfew, bandh or strike in a particular city mayadversely affect delivery norms,
*
Delay occurring due to cancellation of flights/trains/buses/other means
of transport for carriage of mail or off-load / non-carriage of mail
by the carriers due to any reason is beyond the control of the
Department, and therefore, the same may adversely affect delivery norms.
*
Beyond the cities mentioned under the delivery norms document, extra
days may be required which would vary from place to place..
5.
Circles may give wide publicity to the new norms among the public and
display the norms in the shape of a matrix of prominent/frequently-used
destinations at the post office as display of entire matrix perhaps may
not be possible.
6.
The new delivery norms would also be placed on India Post website in a
user-friendly format so that a user could easily find delivery/transit
norms between a pair of cities. In the interim, a PDF version of the
document is being uploaded on the Departmental website.
7.
This O.M. supercedes all previous instructions on Speed Post Delivery
Norms issued by this Directorate/Business Development Directorate.
