Courier tracking guide
UpdatedIn Transit Meaning for Indian Couriers
Understand “In transit” / “Shipment in transit” scans, how long parcels stay between hubs, and when to worry about delays.
In transit = moving between hubs
Your parcel was accepted into the courier network and is travelling toward your city. Scans may jump days apart on long routes.
When is delay normal?
Inter-state ground shipments often show 2–5 days of transit scans. Festivals, rain, and peak sale periods add lag between hub updates.
When to escalate
If there is no new scan for an unusually long stretch versus the promised date, contact the marketplace with your AWB and order ID together.
Stuck in transit checklist
Confirm the last hub city, compare against the promise date, then open marketplace chat with screenshots of the timeline.
