There is no single national per-kg rate

Published “₹X per kg” numbers are averages. Real quotes depend on zone (pincode lane), billable weight, service (standard/express), and extras like COD or fuel surcharge.

Billable weight drives the kg slab

You are charged on billable kg — max(actual, volumetric) — then mapped to the courier’s zone rate table. Oversized packaging can jump you into a higher slab without adding product weight.

Estimate before you ship

Use the courier charges calculator with your lane and carton size for a live Delhivery ballpark, then compare partners and contracts for your volume.
