Tracking number formats every Indian courier

Paste a number anywhere and this tells you whose it is.

An Indian tracking number tells you which courier holds your parcel before you track it. Delhivery uses DL then digits, Blue Dart BD, Ekart FMPC or DSPC, Valmo VL, Amazon TBA, and India Post two letters, nine digits, then IN. The full rules for 20 couriers are below.

What this database is

43 pattern rules across 20 couriers, transcribed from the detection engine this site runs in production — the same code that decides which courier your number belongs to when you paste it into the tracker. A unique match identifies one courier on its own; a shared match fits several couriers and only narrows the field.

Each courier also carries whether tracking currently works on this site. Of the 20 listed, 7 work, 9 are blocked by the courier or fail upstream, 3 have no integration, and 1 is undetermined. That is measured, not claimed — the method is in our coverage report.

What this is not: courier documentation

These are the rules wematch on, published so you can check our working. They are not transcribed from each courier's official specification, and we have not verified them against every courier's own help centre. Where a courier publishes an authoritative format, that document wins over this page. Each courier's official tracking page is linked in its section so you can go to the source.

Couriers with no recognisable number pattern

These 5 couriers are supported on the site but issue numbers with no distinctive shape, so nothing can identify them automatically. If your number is from one of these, you have to pick the courier yourself.
