Financial Institutions Dependence on
Courier and Seasonal Business Upsurge Due to Occasions are the key drivers of this market. Top courier companies operating in
India are specializing in secure and in-time delivery of
Indian pharma products. The telecom sector is dependent on courier service largely for
Sending postpaid connection bills, Bulk
sim delivery in business houses and Sending important notices and intimations to customers. A commercial bank spends approximately
INR 2.4 bn annually on courier to meet its business needs. Courier companies are normally hired by florists to deliver fresh flowers to clientele on birthdays, anniversaries and wedding occasions.
There are various challenges too that the courier industry faces, Poor Infrastructure, Poor Warehousing
Facility,
Delay in
Clearances and
High operating costs are the major challenges faced by the courier industry. A huge number of roadways in India are un-metalled that poses difficulty for courier service providers – almost 40% of villages do not have any access to all weather roads. Due to heavy cargo movement the customs at various international airports is unable to send detention memo for most of the detained parcels and this adversely affects courier service operators’ business.
High level of competition in the industry limits the ability of courier companies to increase pricing and high level of operating costs coupled with the limited pricing power lead to low profitability for the industry overall
Some recent technology adoption in the courier industry is the use of
GPS which is used for tracking location of goods carrying vehicles. Barcode technology is used to monitor flow of documents and other courier items at various points in from
point of origin to point of delivery.
RFID aids in smooth information flow between monitoring unit and on-duty delivery. The
Indian Government has been operating postal and telegraph service through
India Post since 1837 and has evolved over the years to provide fast and reliable service at par with other key players in the market.
The Government of India is also considering setting up of dedicated cargo airports to tap the growing courier market.
