Questions
- Is Daakly cheaper than booking at the post office counter?
- Daakly books at the contractual parcel tariff, which sits below the over-the-counter tariff for the same services. The whole card is published on our rates page, so you can compare any figure against what India Post charges at a counter yourself rather than taking our word for it.
- Do I still have to go to the post office?
- Yes. You book and pay online, print the label, and hand the parcel in at any post office. What changes is the price you pay and the fact that the paperwork is already done when you arrive — not who carries the parcel.
- Which services can I book?
- Two: Business Parcel, which is the India Post parcel product at contractual rates, and Speed Post, which is India Post’s express service at contractual rates. Both are tracked end to end, both run on the same nationwide network, and both carry parcels up to 35 kg.
- What is the difference between Business Parcel and Speed Post?
- Speed and price. Speed Post typically moves in one to five days and Business Parcel in three to eight. Up to about a kilogram the two are priced within a few rupees of each other. Above that the gap widens sharply — at 10 kg to another state, Speed Post costs roughly twice as much. If the delivery date matters, pay for Speed Post; if it does not, do not.
- Are the rates on this site the final price?
- Yes, and more than that: a figure on this site is the whole charge. It carries India Post’s postage, Daakly’s commission and the GST on both. Nothing is added to it at booking.
- Do I need a GST number to use Daakly?
- No. Individuals and unregistered sellers ship on the same account and the same rates as anyone else. If you are a registered business you can add your GSTIN in settings, which puts it on your invoices so you can claim input credit.
- What does a Daakly account cost?
- Nothing. There is no registration fee, no subscription and no minimum volume. You add money to your Daakly wallet and each shipment is deducted from it at the time of booking.
- How is the weight of my parcel decided?
- Shipments are billed on the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight, where volumetric weight is length × width × height in centimetres divided by 5,000. A large, light parcel takes the same space in a van as a small heavy one, which is why carriers price it that way. The weight then rounds up to the next step on the tariff card.
- Can I track a shipment without signing in?
- Yes. Any consignment number can be tracked from the public tracking page, and you can share that link with your customer.
